Amelioration of chilling-induced water stress by abscisic Acid-induced changes in root hydraulic conductance.
نویسنده
چکیده
Pretreatment of soybean (Glycine max L. var Ransom) root systems with abscisic acid (ABA) ameliorates the deleterious effect of low temperatures on root hydraulic conductance. ABA treatment of root systems subsequently chilled to 10 degrees C with shoots at 25 degrees C resulted in higher leaf water potentials and lower stomatal resistances. If the root systems are left at 25 degrees C, ABA causes stomatal closure. Membrane alterations are suggested as a mechanism for the ABA action in plant response to chilling stress.

Chilling responses of maize (Zea mays L.) seedlings: root hydraulic conductance, abscisic acid, and stomatal conductance.
Maize seedling water relations and abscisic acid (ABA) levels were measured over 24 h of root chilling (5.5 degrees C). At 2.5 h into chilling, leaf ABA levels increased by 40x and stomatal conductance (g(s)) decreased to 20% compared with prechill levels. Despite a rapid g(s) response to root chilling, leaf water potential (Psi(L)) of chilled seedlings decreased to -2.2 MPa resulting in a comp...
متن کاملThe grapevine root-specific aquaporin VvPIP2;4N controls root hydraulic conductance and leaf gas exchange under well-watered conditions but not under water stress.
We functionally characterized the grape (Vitis vinifera) VvPIP2;4N (for Plasma membrane Intrinsic Protein) aquaporin gene. Expression of VvPIP2;4N in Xenopus laevis oocytes increased their swelling rate 54-fold. Northern blot and quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction analyses showed that VvPIP2;4N is the most expressed PIP2 gene in root. In situ hybridization confirmed ro...
متن کاملINVITED REVIEW Boron Nutrition and Chilling Tolerance of Warm Climate Crop Species
Background Field observations and glasshouse studies have suggested links between boron (B)-deficiency and leaf damage induced by low temperature in crop plants, but causal relationships between these two stresses at physiological, biochemical and molecular levels have yet to be explored. Limited evidence at the whole-plant level suggests that chilling temperature in the root zone restricts B u...
متن کاملThe role of abscisic acid and water stress in root herbivore-induced leaf resistance.
• Herbivore-induced systemic resistance occurs in many plants and is commonly assumed to be adaptive. The mechanisms triggered by leaf-herbivores that lead to systemic resistance are largely understood, but it remains unknown how and why root herbivory also increases resistance in leaves. • To resolve this, we investigated the mechanism by which the root herbivore Diabrotica virgifera induces r...
