The induction of ethylene production from pear cell culture by cell wall fragments.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Macerase, a pectinase-containing enzyme mixture, was used to digest cell walls isolated from cultured pear cells. Following digestion, the reaction mixture was boiled to inactivate enzymes. Addition of soluble aliquots of the mixture to suspension cultures of pear cells led to a rapid and transient production of ethylene by the cells.

Considerable Azadirachtin Production in Neem Cell Culture under Abiotic Elicitor Induction
In this study the effect of different concentrations of some abiotic elicitors (salicylic acid, jasmonic acid, cadmium chloride and sodium chloride) with different incubation times (3, 6, 9 and 12) on azadiractin production and cell growth in the cell culture of the Iranian native Neem were investigated. Cell growth rate was measured by changes in dry cell weight and it was used as a basis for ...
متن کاملInduction and regulation of ethylene biosynthesis by pectic oligomers in cultured pear cells.
Pectic oligomers induced a rapid, transient increase in ethylene biosynthesis when added to pear cells in suspension culture. The rate of ethylene biosynthesis increased within 30 to 40 minutes after oligomer addition, reached a maximum between 90 and 120 minutes after addition, and then decreased to basal rates of synthesis. Both the rapid increase and decrease in biosynthesis appear to be pre...

Enzymically active cell wall from ripe tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) fruit pericarp release uronic acids through the action of wall-bound polygalacturonase. The potential involvement of products of wall hydrolysis in the induction of ethylene synthesis during tomato ripening was investigated by vacuum infiltrating preclimacteric (green) fruit with solutions containing pectin fragments ...

Objective(s) The fractions of Candida albicans have been used as an immunomodulator. The present work assessed the effect of different fractions of C. albicans on nitric oxide (NO) production by mice peritoneal macrophages. Materials and Methods Cell wall and cytoplasmic fractions of C. albicans ATCC 10321 strain were extracted. Mice peritoneal macrophages were purified and cultured. Differen...
متن کاملEthylene production by growing and senescing pear fruit cell suspensions in response to gibberellin.
A pear (Pyrus communis L. cv Passe Crassane) cell suspension was used as a model system to study the influence of gibberellin on processes related to fruit ripening. Growth of the cell cultures was inhibited and their loss of viability was accelerated when 0.5 millimolar gibberllic acid (GA(3)) was added to suspensions at two stages of cell development, namely, growth and quiescence. Cell respi...
