    Notes: Summary Concentrations of AMP, ADP, ATP, and inorganic phosphate (Pi) were determined in buds of five deciduous tree species (Acer pseudoplatanus, Alnus glutinosa, Fagus sylvatica, Fraxinus excelsior, Quercus robur) during spring reactivation from February to the middle of May. In closed buds of diffuse-porous wood trees (Acer, Alnus, Fagus), the content of adenine nucleotides (AdN) increased temporarily between the middle of February and the middle of March. The main increase of AdN concentration appeared either when buds became swollen (Fraxinus, Fagus, Quercus), or at the time of bud-break (Acer, Alnus). Pi content in general decreased during the course of reactivation. It was almost zero in buds of Quercus at bud-break and afterwards, but in Fraxinus Pi concentration rose when bud-break took place. The extremely low AdN content in Quercus buds is contrasted by a steep increase in AdN content in Fraxinus following bud-break. The decrease of AdN content in emerging leaves of Quercus and Fagus could be related to the high age of these trees.

    Displacement of frequently occurring heacy metals in autumn leaves of beech (Fagus sylvatica) (1987)

    Notes: Summary By utilizing energy-dispersive X-ray microanalysis the heavy metals manganese, iron, zinc and lead were determined in different tissues of beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) autumn leaves. It was observed that all four metals were accumulated in sieve element-companion cell complexes of the leaf veins in the period from the green (2 October) to the brown (23 October) leaf coloration. Concomitantly, the concentration of these metals decreased in certain tissues of the stems subtending the leaves. The major reservoirs of heavy metals in the stems were periderm, cortex, pith and xylem rays. Since sieve element-companion cell complexes of the stems showed increasing metal concentrations during the transition from the green to the brown leaf stage, and since this temporary increase also occurred in the petiole phloem, it is inferred that symplastic transport can be used in addition to apoplastic transport for the displacement of heavy metals. It is assumed that the accumulation of heavy metals in the veins of autumn leaves indicates the deposition of surplus ions which are excluded when leaves are cast off.

    Transport processes in stimulated and non-stimulated leaves of Mimosa pudica (1988)
    Springer
    Trees 2 (1988), S. 7-17 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-2285
    Keywords: Leaf movements ; Mimosa ; Osmotic mechanisms ; Phloem translocation ; Sucrose unloading ; Turgor release

    Notes: Summary Mature leaves of Mimosa pudica L. or parts of them were exposed to 14CO2, and translocation was recorded by macroautoradiography. It was observed that considerable amounts of labelled photoassimilates were accumulated in pulvini when the leaf was stimulated. In non-stimulated leaves, no such accumulation of label was observed. Microautoradiographs of pulvinar regions of the non-stimulated leaf showed 14C- label restricted to the phloem. When stimulated, the 14C- label was unloaded from the phloem of the pulvini. Labelled photoassimilates appeared most concentrated in the walls of the collenchymatous cells and beyond in the extensor region of the motor cortex. There, label was accumulated in the apoplastic compartments. Stimulation causes a sudden phloem unloading of sucrose, and its accumulation in the apoplast lowers the water potential which eventually exceeds the osmotic potential of the extensor cells of the motor cortex. By removal of cytoplasmic water the motor cells lose turgidity which results in the closing movement of the leaflets, and — some seconds later — in the bending down of the petiole. In late afternoon night-stimulation triggers sucrose unloading in secondary pulvini. During phases of relaxation, labelled material is taken up by motor cells of the extensor, which concomitantly gain turgor.
