A possible role for abscisic Acid in regulation of photosynthetic and photorespiratory carbon metabolism in barley leaves.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The influence of abscisic acid (ABA) on carbon metabolism, rate of photorespiration, and the activity of the photorespiratory enzymes ribulose bisphosphate oxygenase and glycolate oxidase in 7-day-old barley seedlings (Hordeum vulgare L. var. Alfa) was investigated. Plants treated with ABA had enhanced incorporation of labeled carbon from (14)CO(2) into glycolic acid, glycine, and serine, while (14)C incorporation into 3-phosphoglyceric acid and sugarphosphate esters was depressed. Parallel with this effect, treated plants showed a rise in activity of RuBP oxygenase and glycolic acid oxidase. The rate of photorespiration was increased twofold by ABA treatment at IO(-6) molar while the CO(2)-compensation point increased 46% and stomatal resistance increased more than twofold over control plants.

Photorespiration: metabolic pathways and their role in stress protection.
Photorespiration results from the oxygenase reaction catalysed by ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase. In this reaction glycollate-2-phosphate is produced and subsequently metabolized in the photorespiratory pathway to form the Calvin cycle intermediate glycerate-3-phosphate. During this metabolic process, CO2 and NH3 are produced and ATP and reducing equivalents are consumed, thus ...
متن کاملQuantitative analysis of photosynthetic carbon metabolism in protoplasts and intact leaves of barley. Determination of carbon fluxes and pool sizes of metabolites in different cellular compartments
Rates of carbon fluxes and pool sizes of photosynthetic metabolites in different cellular compartments of barley protoplasts were calculated from the time curves of their labeling in the medium of ¹⁴CO₂. Using membrane filtration procedure, kinetics of ¹⁴C incorporation into the products of steady-state photosynthesis was determined separately in chloroplasts, mitochondria and cytosol of barley...
متن کاملA Potential Role of Flag Leaf Potassium in Conferring Tolerance to Drought-Induced Leaf Senescence in Barley
Terminal drought stress decreases crop yields by inducing abscisic acid (ABA) and premature leaf senescence. As potassium (K) is known to interfere with ABA homeostasis we addressed the question whether there is genetic variability regarding the role of K nutrition in ABA homeostasis and drought tolerance. To compare their response to drought stress, two barley lines contrasting in drought-indu...
متن کاملImpairment of Photorespiratory Carbon Flow into Rubber by the Inhibition of the Glycolate Pathway in Guayule (Parthenium argentatum Gray).
Cut shoots of guayule (Parthenium argentatum Gray) were treated with four inhibitors of the glycolate pathway (alpha-hydroxypyridinemethanesulfonic acid; isonicotinic acid hydrazide, glycine hydroxamate, and amino-oxyacetate, AOA) in order to evaluate the role of photorespiratory intermediates in providing precursors for the biosynthesis of rubber. Photorespiratory CO(2) evolution in guayule le...
متن کاملInduction of hydroxycinnamic acid amides and tryptophan by jasmonic acid, abscisic acid and osmotic stress in barley leaves.
The effects of jasmonic acid (JA) and abscisic aid (ABA) on secondary metabolism in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) were investigated. Treatment with JA at 100 microM for 48 h induced accumulation of four compounds in barley primary leaves. The accumulation of these compounds was also observed after treatment with ABA at 100 microM. The induced compounds were identified as p-coumaroylputrescine, p-...
