Leaf Senescence in a Nonyellowing Mutant of Festuca pratensis: Metabolism of Cytochrome f.
In a mutant genotype of Festuca pratensis Huds., net degradation of a number of thylakoid membrane proteins during senescence is impaired. Previous studies have suggested that the highly hydrophobic intrinsic chlorophyll-binding proteins were the definitive subjects of the metabolic lesion. In the present study we find that cytochrome f, as determined by haem-staining, Western blotting, enzyme-...
متن کاملSeparation of Chlorophyll Degradation from Other Senescence Processes in Leaves of a Mutant Genotype of Meadow Fescue (Festuca pratensis L.).
Chlorophyll levels in l-cm sections of the youngest fully expanded leaves of normal (Y) Festuca pratensis L. declined almost to zero over a period of 6 days after excision. Chlorophyll in a mutant genotype (NY) remained near the initial level for the whole of this period. Abscisic acid promoted pigment loss in Y but had no significant effect on chlorophyll in NY. Kinetin retarded pigment loss i...
متن کاملMolecular tagging of a senescence gene by introgression mapping of a stay-green mutation from Festuca pratensis.
* Intergeneric hybrids between Lolium multiflorum and Festuca pratensis (Lm/Fp) and their derivatives exhibit a unique combination of genetic and cytogenetic characteristics: chromosomes undergo a high frequency of homoeologous recombination at meiosis; the chromosomes of the two species can easily be discriminated by genomic in situ hybridization (GISH); recombination occurs along the entire l...
متن کاملExploiting repetitive sequences and BAC clones in Festuca pratensis karyotyping
The Festuca genus is thought to be the most numerous genus of the Poaceae family. One of the most agronomically important forage grasses, Festuca pratensis Huds. is treated as a model plant to study the molecular mechanisms associated with tolerance to winter stresses, including frost. However, the precise mapping of the genes governing stress tolerance in this species is difficult as its karyo...
متن کاملPhysical and genetic mapping in the grasses Lolium perenne and Festuca pratensis.
A single chromosome of the grass species Festuca pratensis has been introgressed into Lolium perenne to produce a diploid monosomic substitution line 2n = 2x = 14. In this line recombination occurs throughout the length of the F. pratensis/L. perenne bivalent. The F. pratensis chromosome and recombinants between it and its L. perenne homeologue can be visualized using genomic in situ hybridizat...
