As part of a more detailed study on plant tumorigenesis, the action of gibberellic acid (GA(3)) in wounded potato tuber tissues as a model system has been evaluated. GA(3) stimulates total RNA synthesis in wounded tissues, the optimal concentration being 0.1 micromolar. The responsiveness of the
Chromatin-bound DNA-dependent RNA polymerases react upon wounding of white potato tuber tissues with an increase in activity, which is additionally enhanced to 300% in the presence of 0.1 micromolar gibberellic acid (GA(3)). 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid is only weakly effective and indoleacetic
The rest period of the potato tuber was studied in relation to certain biochemical changes that are induced by gibberellic acid (GA(3)). The concentration of reducing sugars in excised plugs with buds treated with 10(-4)m GA(3) decreased in the first 4 hours after treatment and then rapidly
Many studies have shown that gibberellic acid (GA(3)) inhibits tuberization in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.). In this study, we have utilized the 40 kilodalton glycoprotein, patatin, as a marker for biochemical events associated with the process of tuberization. To determine the effects of exogenous
The regulation of starch synthesis and exocellular polysaccharide synthesis by GA3 was studied with cells of sweet potato grown as suspension in glycerol medium. In the presence of GA3, and under normal cell growth, starch formation was inhibited. The incorporation activity (starch synthesis) from
'Warm white' fluorescent light inhibited the elongation of potato sprouts and reduced the rate at which reserve materials in the mother tuber were mobilized. The evidence indicated that the influence of light on mobilization was independent of light effects on the magnitude of the 'sink' for
The effect of gibberellin A(3) (10(-4)m) and abscisic acid (10(-4)m), applied separately and together, on incorporation of (3)H-thymidine and (3)H-uridine into DNA and RNA of buds from freshly harvested potatoes was investigated. In some treatments apical buds in intact tubers were treated three
The reaction of potato tuber tissue upon wounding and gibberellic acid (GA3) treatment is strictly dependent on the tuber age. Young, rapidly growing tubers decline both chromatin-bound, DNA-dependent RNA polymerase (EC 2.7.7.6) activity and template availability as a consequence of wounding and are
Sporamin and beta-amylase are two major proteins of tuberous storage root of sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) and their accumulation can be induced concomitantly with the accumulation of starch in leaves and petioles by sucrose (K Nakamura, M Ohto, N Yoshida, K Nakamura [1991] Plant Physiol 96:
A method for regenerating plants from petiole protoplasts of the in vitro-raised sweet potato cultivar Jewel is described. Protoplast yields of 3.0-5.0×106 were obtained following 4-6 h digestion of 1- to 2-cm petioles (1 g fresh weight) with 1% Cellulase-R10, 2% Macerozyme-R10, and 0.3%
Investigation of polyphenol production in cut-injured sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas Lam. cv. Kokei 14) roots by histochemical and quantitative methods showed that polyphenols were produced in striking amounts in the proximal side of the tissue pieces (2 cm thick), but only in small amounts in cells
Effects of phytohormones gibberellic acid (GA) and abscisic acid (ABA) on the ATP-dependent transmembrane transport of protons were studied in plasma membrane vesicles (PMVs) from non-dormant potato tubers. The uptake of H+ into PMVs was assessed by the fluorescence quenching of acridine orange (AO)
