چکیده

The growth equation for the rate of water uptake is augmented with a transpiration term. The obtained augmented growth equations are used to develop methodology which employs the pressure probe to measure transpiration rates from single plant cells. Experiments are conducted on the sporangiophores of Phycomyces blakesleeanus to demonstrate this technique.

In vivo creep and stress relaxation experiments to determine the wall extensibility and yield threshold for the sporangiophores of phycomyces.

The pressure probe was used to conduct in vivo creep and in vivo stress relaxation experiments on the sporangiophores of Phycomyces blakesleeanus. The in vivo creep and in vivo stress relaxation methods are compared with respect to their utility for determining the irreversible wall extensibility and the yield threshold. The results of the in vivo stress relaxation experiments demonstrate that ...

Stiff Mutant Genes of Phycomyces Affect Turgor Pressure and Wall Mechanical Properties to Regulate Elongation Growth Rate

Regulation of cell growth is paramount to all living organisms. In plants, algae and fungi, regulation of expansive growth of cells is required for development and morphogenesis. Also, many sensory responses of stage IVb sporangiophores of Phycomyces blakesleeanus are produced by regulating elongation growth rate (growth responses) and differential elongation growth rate (tropic responses). "St...

Absence of significant light-induced changes in cAMP levels in sporangiophores of Phycomyces blakesleeanus.

We were unable to find transient changes in the amount of cAMP or cGMP that had been proposed to mediate the light-growth response in sporangiophores of Phycomyces blakesleeanus.

Temperature Characteristics for the Growth of the Sporangiophores of Phycomyces

1. With constant temperature and light intensity, the rate of elongation of a sporangiophore of Phycomyces is constant for many hours. 2. With constant light intensity, values of micro, the "critical thermal increment," have been computed for the elongation of different sporangiophores. These values group themselves closely about the modes 11,000, 16,000, 20,000, 26,000, and 33,000 calories. Sp...
