Effect of fungal infection on the composition of acyl lipids in wheat seedlings.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Infection of etiolated wheat seedlings with a root rot fungus Bipolaris sorokiniana caused a strong deviation in the fatty acid composition of their total lipids from the control. The deviation occurred at the expense of that lipid group, which predominates in a given plant organ (shoots or roots), and peak deviation coincided with the onset of a severe inhibition of growth.

Effects of savory essential oil on germination parameters of Fusarium infected-seeds of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.).
High use of synthetic pesticides has detrimental effects on the environment. An alternative option is application of natural pesticide compounds. The aim of this study was to evaluate the possibility of replacing Vitavax with savory essential oil to inhibit physiological damages to wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) seeds caused by Fusarium oxysprum. A pot experiment was carried out on wheat seeds as...
متن کاملChanges in plasma-membrane lipid composition: a strategy for acclimation to copper stress.
Wheat seedlings were grown hydroponically in the presence of 50 microM Cu2+. The copper stress resulted in plasma-membrane (PM) changes of the root cells as altered lipid composition, a decreased phosphatidylcholine (PC)/phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) ratio from 0.7 to 0.3, a decreased fatty acyl unsaturation and a decrease in the lipid/protein ratio. Membrane vesicles made from total lipid extr...
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 کاملMevinolin: a highly specific inhibitor of microsomal 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase of radish plants.
The fungal metabolite mevinolin, known to be a potent hypocholesterolemic agent, exerts in vitro a strong inhibitory effect on microsomal HMG-CoA reductase from etiolated radish seedlings at a concentration of about three magnitudes lower than the Km towards the natural substrate (S)-HMG-CoA (I50 = 2.5 x 10(-9)M). Beside this, mevinolin significantly inhibits the root elongation of radish as we...
متن کاملEffect of zinc and boron interaction on growth and mineral composition of lemon seedlings in a calcareous soil
The impact of different concentration of zinc (Zn) and boron (B) on growth and mineral composition of lemon seedlings (Citrus Aurantifolia L.) was studied under greenhouse conditions. We used five concentration levels of B (0, 2.5, 5, 10 and 20 μg g-1 soil) and three of Zn (0, 5 and 10 μg g-1 soil). Fresh and dry plant weights of the control treatment were strongly decreased with B levels highe...
