Nitrogenase Activity and Amounts of Nitrogenase Proteins in a Frankia-Alnus incana Symbiosis Subjected to Darkness.
Effects of prolonged darkness on nitrogenase activity in vivo, nitrogenase activity in vitro, and the amounts of nitrogenase proteins were studied in symbiotic Frankia. Plants of Alnus incana (L.) Moench in symbiosis with a local source of Frankia were grown for 9 to 10 weeks in an 18/6 hour light/darkness cycle. After 12 hours of a light period, the plants were exposed to darkness for up to 40...
متن کاملShort-term metabolic responses of soybean root nodules to nitrate.
Soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) plants exposed to 10 mM KNO(3) for a 4 d period were used to test the correlation between nitrogenase activity, gene expression and sucrose metabolism. Nitrate caused the down-regulation of sucrose synthase (SS) transcripts within 1 d, although a decline in nodule SS activity and an increase in nodule sucrose content only occurred after 3-4 d. In a second experime...
متن کاملAdaptation of nitrogenase to varying oxygen tension and the role of the vesicle in root nodules of Alnus incana ssp. rugosa
SILVESTER, W. B., SILVESTER, J. K. , and TORREY, J. G. 1988. Adaptation of nitrogenase to varying oxygen tension and the role of the vesicle in root nodules of Alnus incana ssp. rugosa. Can. J . Bot. 66: 17721779. Growth of Alnus incana ssp. rugosa plants with root systems at Po2 levels of 5 , 21, and 40 kPa showed no significant differences among treatments over a 6-week period. Nitrogenase ac...
متن کاملMolecular diversity of Frankia in root nodules of Alnus incana grown with inoculum from polluted urban soils.
ABSTRACT The establishment and growth of trees can be compromised by soil contamination which can reduce populations of key microbial symbionts. We describe the colonisation of grey alder (Alnus incana) by Frankia from 10 urban soils with varying degrees of organic and inorganic pollution. Principal components analysis (PCA) of soil chemical profiles showed a separation of remediated and unreme...
متن کاملA freeze-fracture electron microscopic study of Frankia in root nodules of Alnus incana grown at three oxygen tensions
ABEYSEKERA, R. M., NEWCOMB, W . , SILVESTER, W. B., and TORREY, J. G. 1990. A freeze-fracture electron microscopic study of Frankia in root nodules of Alnus incana grown at three oxygen tensions. Can. J. Microbiol. 36: 97-108. Nodulated plants of Alnus incana ssp. rugosa and ssp. incana were grown with the roots exposed to 5,21, and 40 kPa 02. The nodules were studied by freeze-fracture transmi...
