The effect of proline, isoleucine, leucine, valine, lysine and ornithine under standard physiological conditions, on purified Vigna catjang cotyledon and buffalo liver arginases was studied. The results showed that V. catjang cotyledon arginase is inhibited by proline at a lower concentration than
Soil salinity is a major abiotic stress affecting crop growth and productivity. Ricinus communis has good salt tolerance and is also an important oilseed crop throughout the world. Early seedling stage (such as cotyledon expansion stage) is the most vulnerable period for plant under stresses.
Contents of chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, soluble protein and proline, as well as the ratio chlorophyll a/b in detached cotyledons of cucumber were distinctly increased by treating with 20 mg/L triadimefon, which suggested that triadimefon can effectively retard the senescence of detached cotyledons
Freshly isolated cotyledons from 10-day developing pea (Pisum sativum) seeds were fed radiolabeled precursors for 5 hours, and the specific radioactivity of the free and total protein amino acids was determined using a dansylation procedure. When the seven most abundant amino acids in phloem exudate
Four cell wall proteins of cotyledons of Prosopis chilensis seedlings were characterized by PAGE and Western analyses using a polyclonal antibody, generated against soybean seed coat extensin. These proteins had M(r)s of 180,000, 126,000, 107,000 and 63,000, as determined by SDS-PAGE. The proteins
Photosynthesis competent autotrophy is established during the postgerminative stage of plant growth. Among the multiple factors, light plays a decisive role in the switch from heterotrophic to autotrophic growth. Under dark conditions, the rapeseed hypocotyl extends quickly with an apical hook, and
The composition of the free amino acid pool in embryonic cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) cotyledons is quite distinct from that of endosperm, and that of germinated, greened cotyledons is quite distinct from that of leaves. During germination (including the precocious germination of immature seeds), the
The role of the ubiquitin (Ub)-proteasome pathway and some endo- and aminopeptidases (EPs and APs, respectively) was studied in cotyledons of germinating bean seeds (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). The Ub system appeared to be important both in the early (3 days) and late (9 days) phases of germination. In
Extensins are cell wall basic glycoproteins with a polypeptide backbone that is extremely rich in hydroxyproline. In this paper, the function of extensins in embryo development was studied in Nicotiana tabacum. By using Western blot and immunohistochemistry, the extensin JIM20 epitopes were found to
The effect of low temperature on growth, sucrose-starch partitioning and related enzymes in salt-stressed and salt-acclimated cotyledons of quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) was studied. The growth of cotyledons and growing axes in seedlings grown at 25/20 degrees C (light/dark) and shifted to 5/5
