چکیده

Chloroplasts were isolated from triazine-sensitive and triazine-resistant biotypes of common groundsel (Senecio vulgaris L.), common lambsquarter (Chenopodium album L.), and redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexus L.). Chloroplast lipids were extracted and analyzed for differences among sensitive and resistant biotypes. The distribution of lipid between major lipid classes differed in chloroplasts from resistant and susceptible biotypes. Chloroplasts from resistant biotypes contained higher proportions of monogalactosyl diglyceride and phosphatidyl ethanolamine and lower proportions of digalactosyl diglyceride and phosphatidyl choline than did chloroplasts from susceptible biotypes. Monogalactosyl diglyceride and phosphatidyl ethanolamine were also quantitatively higher in membranes of resistant versus susceptible biotypes. The major lipid classes of resistant chloroplast membranes contained lipids comparatively richer in unsaturated fatty acids with the exceptions of digalactosyl diglyceride from all three biotypes and phosphatidyl ethanolamine from common groundsel. Results correlated changes in triazine sensitivity with qualitative and quantitative differences in the lipid composition of chloroplast membranes.

The Molecular Basis of Triazine-Herbicide Resistance in Higher-Plant Chloroplasts*

Triazine herbicides inhibit photosynthesis by blocking electron transport in photosystem II. The target site of the herbicide was identified as a chloroplast thylakoid polypeptide (the Q B protein) o f 32,000 daltons. Studies o f triazine-resistant weed biotypes suggested that a subtle change in the QB protein caused the resistance. We have cloned the chloroplast gene (psbA) that codes this pro...

Resistance of various biotypes of Canary grass (phalaris. Spp) to acetyl-CoA carboxylase-inhibiting herbicides.

Little seed canary grass (Phalaris minor L.) is a major weed in wheat fields in some parts of Iran. To evaluate the efficacy of molecular and greenhouse methods in detecting the resistance of 49 biotypes of canary grass(Phalaris. Spp) to acetyl-CoA carboxylase-inhibiting herbicides, two methods including whole plant screening and PCR-based molecular methods were applied. Results showed that the...

Characterization of Triazine-Resistant and -Susceptible Isolines of Canola (Brassica napus L.).

Morphometric, electrophoretic, and immunological procedures were used to probe the structural and physiological differences between triazine-resistant (R) and susceptible (S) isolines of canola (Brassica napus L.). The R biotype exhibited increased grana stacking and decreased amounts of starch compared to the S biotype. Likewise, characters associated with an increase in grana stacking (lower ...

Structural and Physiological Comparisons of Triazine-Susceptible, -Resistant, and “Mixed” Biotypes of Poa

Triazine-resistant (R) biotypes of several dicot weed biotypes have been shown to differ from triazine-susceptible (S) biotypes both structurally and biochemically. To this point, no R monocot has been examined, however. In this report, we examine the ultrastructure and physiology of three biotypes of Poa annua L.: a S biotype, a R biotype, and a “m ixed” (M) biotype that displays a level of re...

Salt and water stress of ACCase herbicides resistant and susceptible populations of rigid ryegrass (Lolium rigidum)

Laboratory studies were conducted to compare the relative fitness of clodinafop-propargyl herbicide resistant Lolium rigidum accessions with their clodinafop-propargyl susceptible counterparts in 2014. Factors evaluated were Lolium populations at constant salinity stress (0, 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 dS cm2) and water stress (0, -3, -6, -9, -12 and -15 bar). The maximum germination in salinity stres...
