Polyamine Titer in the Embryonic Axis and Cotyledons of Glycine max (L.) during Seed Growth and Maturation.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Active polyamine metabolism occurs in Glycine max (L.) seeds during development. Most (>/=97%) of putrescine (Put), spermidine (Spd), spermine (Spm), and cadaverine (Cad) are present as free forms in the growing embryo. In the cotyledon or embryonic axis, Put decreases to a nearly undetectable level, while Spd level sharply increases as seed dry weight accumulation progresses. Spm level in the axis also increases along with the Spd level. There is little change in Spm level in the cotyledons. Maturation and dehydration results in a slight reduction of Spd level in the cotyledons. Cad is present in relatively large quantities (5.5-12 micromoles per gram dry weight) in the axes of mature soybean seeds. Only traces of Cad, as expressed on a dry weight basis, are found in the developing or mature cotyledons. The synthesis and accumulation of Cad in the axis begins at the time when the axis or the seed accumulates 30 to 50% of its maximum dry weight. The Cad accumulation (0.8 nanomole per axis per day) proceeds until the later stages of dehydration. When soybean plants are subjected to complete defoliation and shade during the midpoint of seed maturation, Cad accumulation in the axis and seed dry weight accumulation ceased almost immediately. The treatment, however, does not affect the viability of soybean seeds.

Polyamine Anabolism in Germinating Glycine max (L.) Seeds : Dynamics of Cadaverine and Putrescine Formation in the Embryonic Axis.
Active polyamine biosynthesis occurs in the embryonic axis, but not in the cotyledons, during germination of Glycine max (L.) cv Williams seeds and subsequent growth of the young seedlings. The hypocotyl and radicle synthesize and accumulate considerable amounts of cadaverine (Cad) and putrescine (Put) during the early stages of growth. Most of the amino acid precursors for the diamines are sup...

Vicilin and legumin, the storage globulins of mature dry vetch (Vicia sativa L.) seeds, are found in protein bodies which are present not only in the cotyledons, but also in the radicle, axis and shoot (together, for reasons of simplicity, here called axis). When at 24 h after the start of imbibition (hai) the radicle breaks through the seed coat a major part of the globulins in the axis has al...

In the present study, 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2, 4-D) was assessed individually for its effectiveness to induce somatic embryogenesis in tea (Camellia sinenesis L.). Embryonic axes and cotyledons explants were dissected from the seeds. Explants were cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium containing 0, 1 and 5 mM 2, 4-D alone for embryonic axes and 0, 1 and 5 mM 2, 4-D along with 0...
