P-NMR Spectroscopy of Roots of Intact Corn Seedlings.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The application of (31)P nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy to the study of metabolism in roots of intact corn seedlings is described. (31)P-NMR spectra of developmentally distinct parts of primary roots of whole seedlings are presented. The spectra are of quality comparable to those of excised pieces of plant tissue.

Exocellular Enzymes of Corn Roots.
Little attention has been given to the occurrence of exocellular hydrolytic enzymes associated with the roots of higher plants. Such enzymes, if present, could solubilize macromolecular constituents of organic soils, permitting uptake and utilization by the plant of the resultant low molecular weight organic compounds. The present work supports this concept by demonstrating that several exocell...
متن کاملEffect of carbon dioxide on nitrate accumulation and nitrate reductase induction in corn seedlings.
Exposure of the leaf canopy of corn seedlings (Zea mays L.) to atmospheric CO(2) levels ranging from 100 to 800 mul/l decreased nitrate accumulation and nitrate reductase activity. Plants pretreated with CO(2) in the dark and maintained in an atmosphere containing 100 mul/l CO(2) accumulated 7-fold more nitrate and had 2-fold more nitrate reductase activity than plants exposed to 600 mul/l CO(2...
متن کاملRadial Salt Transport in Corn Roots ' Grace
Summtiizary. Primary roots of solution--grown, 5-day-old or 6-day-old seedlings of corn (Zea mays L.) 10 to 14 cm in length were used to study radial salt trtansport. Measurements were made of the volume of root pressure exudation, salt concentration of the exudate, and rate of salt movement into the xylem exudate. The 32p uptake, 09 consumption, and dehydrogenase activity of the root cortex an...
متن کاملPopulation Dynamics, Root Penetration, and Feeding Behavior of Pratylenchus agilis in Monoxenic Root Cultures of Corn, Tomato, and Soybean.
Population dynamics, rate of root penetration, and external root feeding behavior of Pratylenchus agilis (Pa) in monoxenic cultures of intact corn seedlings and root explants of corn, tomato, and soybean were studied. In descending order of suitability as hosts were I. O. Chief corn, Rutgers tomato, and Williams soybean. Soybean entries Kent, Pickett 71, PI 90763, and Essex were poor hosts. Num...
متن کاملAccumulation of ammonium in Norway spruce (Picea abies) seedlings measured by in vivo 14N-NMR.
(14)N-NMR and (31)P-NMR have been used to monitor the in vivo pH in roots, stems, and needles from seedlings of Norway spruce, a typical ammonium-tolerant plant. The vacuolar and cytoplasmic pH measured by (31)P-NMR was found to be c. pH 4.8 and 7.0, respectively, with no significant difference between plants growing with ammonium or nitrate as the N-source. The (1)H-coupled (14) NH 4+ resonanc...
