چکیده

In contrast to the function of reactive oxygen species, calcium, hormones and small RNAs in systemic signaling, systemic electrical signaling in plants is poorly studied and understood. Pulse amplitude-modulated Chl fluorescence imaging and surface electrical potential measurements accompanied by pharmacological treatments were employed to study stimuli-induced electrical signals in leaves from a broad range of plant species and in Arabidopsis thaliana mutants. Here we report that rapid electrical signals in response to a local heat stimulus regulate systemic changes in non-photochemical quenching (NPQ) and PSII quantum efficiency. Both stimuli-induced systemic changes in NPQ and photosynthetic capacity as well as electrical signaling depended on calcium channel activity. Use of an Arabidopsis respiratory burst oxidase homolog D (RBOHD) mutant (rbohD) as well as an RBOH inhibitor further suggested a cross-talk between ROS and electrical signaling. Our results suggest that higher plants evolved a complex rapid long-distance calcium-dependent electrical systemic signaling in response to local stimuli that regulates and optimizes the balance between PSII quantum efficiency and excess energy dissipation in the form of heat by means of NPQ.

Electrical Signaling, Photosynthesis and Systemic Acquired Acclimation

Electrical signaling in higher plants is required for the appropriate intracellular and intercellular communication, stress responses, growth and development. In this review, we have focus on recent findings regarding the electrical signaling, as a major regulator of the systemic acquired acclimation (SAA) and the systemic acquired resistance (SAR). The electric signaling on its own cannot conf...

The relationships between carbon isotope discrimination and photosynthesis and rice yield under shading

The measurement of carbon isotope discrimination (∆) provides an integrated insight into theresponse of plants to environmental change. To investigate the potential use of ∆ for identifyingshade tolerance in rice, five rice varieties were selected and artificially shaded (53% lightreduction) during the grain-filling period in 2010 and 2011, in Sichuan, China. Shadingtreatment had a significant ...

Photosynthesis, Nitrogen Metabolism and Antioxidant Defense System in B-Deficient tea (Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze) Plants

Response of tea plants to B deficiency was studied in hydroponic medium under environmentally controlled conditions. Plants height, number of leaves and dry matter production of shoot and root were significantly decreased by B deficiency. Concentration of chlorophyll, carotenoids, anthocyanins and flavonoids was not affected by B deficiency in the young leaf, while a significant reduction of Ch...
