چکیده

The objective of the present work was to determine the impact of nitrogen deficiency on proline metabolism in French Bean plants (Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. Strike). The nitrogen was applied to the nutrient solution in the form of NH4NO3 at 1.45 mM (N1), 2.90 mM (N2) and 5.80 mM (N3, optimal level). Our results indicate N deficiency is characterised by a decline in proline accumulation both in the root and leaves, fundamentally because proline degradation is encouraged by the stimulation of the enzyme proline dehydrogenase. By contrast, under conditions of adequate N (N3), proline levels rise due to the action of ornithine, suggesting predominance of the ornithine pathway over the glutamine pathway, in addition to the inhibition of proline dehydrogenase activity. Abbreviations: ATP – adenosine triphosphate, BSA – bovine serum albumin, DW – dry weight, EDDHA – ethylene diamine-di(o-hydroxyphenylaceticacid), EDTA – ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid, NAD – nicotinamide adenide dinucleotide, NADH – nicotinamide adenide dinucleotide reduced, NADP – nicotinamide adenide dinucleotide phosphate, NADPH – nicotinamide adenide dinucleotide phosphate reduced, OAT – ornithine-aminotransferase, P5CS – -pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthetase, PDH – proline dehydrogenase, PVPP – insoluble polyvinylpyrrolidone

Proline metabolism in response to highest nitrogen dosages in green bean plants (Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. Strike)

The objective of the present work was to determine what impact extremely high nitrogen dosages would have on proline metabolism in order to use this amino acid as a bioindicator of N status of green bean plants (Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. Strike). In this effort, we identified the most favourable pathway of proline synthesis under our experimental conditions. The N was applied to the nutrient so...

The objective of the present work was to determine the effect of NH4NO3 toxicity on nitrogen metabolism in Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. Strike. The NH4NO3 was applied to the nutrient solution at 6 (N1), 12 (N2), 18 (N3), and 24 mM (N4). The availability of NO3− and NH4+ in the roots and leaves of green bean proved to be influenced by the different NH4NO3 treatments, being the NO3− and NH4+ translo...
