Chilling and Translocation Inhibition
نویسنده
چکیده
The effect of chilling on translocation in higher plants was reviewed by separate consideration of path, sink, and source-cooling effects. The response of the sink to chilling indicates that the effect is mainly due to the inhibition of a metabolic process, while the response of the path to chilling suggests that the effect is mainly due to physical damage such as alteration of membranes. Sugar beet Beta vulgaris L. shows a rapid recovery of translocation during chilling, and bean Phaseolus vulgaris L. shows a very slow recovery; northern and southern ecotypes of Canada thistle, Cirsium arvense L., resemble beet and bean, respectively. Differing bases for chilling-inhibition mechanisms in the subdivisions of the translocation system are suggested by the analysis of kinetics of inhibition and recovery during localized chilling of these parts.

Mechanism of inhibition of translocation by localized chilling.
Arrhenius plots of translocation velocity as a function of petiole temperature show a marked increase in temperature dependence below 10 C in bean (a chilling-sensitive species) but not in sugar beet (chilling-resistant). The increased temperature dependence below 10 C was not observed for cytoplasmic streaming or oxygen uptake in bean. Bean petioles were served to release pressure in order to ...
متن کاملFacilitated nuclear transport of calmodulin in tissue culture cells
Calmodulin (CaM) potentiates Ca(2+)-dependent signaling pathways in both the cytoplasm and nucleus. We have investigated the mechanism of CaM nuclear transport using tissue culture cell microinjection and a permeabilized cell import assay. The inhibition of CaM import by the translocation inhibitor wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) and by chilling, indicates that CaM import is facilitated, but becaus...
متن کاملEffect of exogenous Gama-aminobutyric acid on physiological tolerance of wheat seedlings exposed to chilling stress . Praviz Malekzadeh*, Jalil Khara and Reza Heidari
Accumulation of γ -aminobutyric acid (GABA) is associated with stress factors in plant systems. The objective of the current study was to compare GABA concentration in wheat plants under chilling stress. After 48 h treatments of seedlings under chilling stress combined stresses with and without GABA, morphological and biochemical assays were conducted. It was observed that the inhibition of see...
متن کاملRegulation of respiration and the oxygen diffusion barrier in soybean protect symbiotic nitrogen fixation from chilling-induced inhibition and shoots from premature senescence.
Symbiotic nitrogen fixation is sensitive to dark chilling (7 degrees C-15 degrees C)-induced inhibition in soybean (Glycine max). To characterize the mechanisms that cause the stress-induced loss of nodule function, we examined nodule structure, carbon-nitrogen interactions, and respiration in two soybean genotypes that differ in chilling sensitivity: PAN809 (PAN), which is chilling sensitive, ...
متن کاملNitric Oxide Mediates 5-Aminolevulinic Acid-Induced Antioxidant Defense in Leaves of Elymus nutans Griseb. Exposed to Chilling Stress
Nitric oxide (NO) and 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) are both extremely important signalling molecules employed by plants to control many aspects of physiology. In the present study, the role of NO in ALA-induced antioxidant defense in leaves of two sources of Elymus nutans Griseb. (Damxung, DX and Zhengdao, ZD) was investigated. Chilling stress enhanced electrolyte leakage, accumulation of malond...
