    Notes: Abstract Germination and protein synthesis of lily pollen subjected to a short heat shock after imbibition are strongly inhibited. The proteins synthesized after the heat shock were analysed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The patterns obtained from heat-treated pollen are strikingly different from those of control samples. The difference is nearly completely climinated by a high concentration of proline in the incubation medium. This proline effect correlates with the protection of pollen germination from high temperature by the amino acid.

    Protection of pollen germination from adverse temperatures: a possible role for proline (1983)

    Notes: Abstract After germination, pollen grains of Lilium longiflorum became very sensitive to short periods of heat stress as shown by the greatly reduced germination percentages upon subsequent incubation at the optimal temperature. Addition of proline to the incubation medium made pollen more resistant to heat. It was demonstrated that in a short time a large amount of proline was taken up by the cell. Germination and metabolic functions were completely or partially protected from heat damage by proline treatment. As well, it was shown that proline treatment at least partially protected pollen grains from cold stress. These results suggest that the high proline concentrations found in pollen of many species may confer resistance to germinating pollen grains at unfavourable temperatures thereby enhancing the chances of successful fertilization.

    Notes: The effect of ethytene on in vitro flower bud formation in thin-layer explants from tobacco pendicels (Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Samsun) was studied Endogenous ethylene production was stimulated by l-minocyclopropanc-l-carhoxylic acid (ACT), and inhibited by aminoethoxyviny lglycine (AVG). resulting in higher and lower ethylene accumulation. respectively. In the presence of an elevated ethylene concentration, the number of flower buds formed after 7 days of culture in explants was increased, compared with the control. Treatment with AVG or with AgNO3 which blocks ethylene action resulted in decreased bud numbers after 7 days of culture. A different effect of ethylene was visible after 14 days of culture, when regeneration was complete. Treatment with AgNO3 led to more bud regeneration, and increasing ethylene concentrations to lower bud numbers. The endogenous production of ethylene was enhanced by high concentrations of 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA).The inhibitory effect of applied ethylene was almost 100% in explants cultured at low concentrations of NAA (below 1 μM). but hardly visible at high concentrations (4.5 μM). As a consequence, the optimal NAA concentration shifted to a higher value in the presence of ethylene. These results are interpreted as a reduction in tissue sensitivity to auxin and in regenerative capability by ethylene. The effect of ethylene on auxin action is not exerted at the level of hormone concentration. Neither NAA uptake nor conversion to conjugates was effected by ethylene.

    Control of thiophene accumulation in calli of two Tagetes species (1989)

    Notes: The relation between root differentiation and accumulation of biocidal thiophenes was studied in stem calli of two Tagetes species. Disorganized tissues of T. erecta were low in thiophene production. A sharp rise in thiophene content coincided with the emergence of roots on the calli. Root regeneration and the amount of thiophenes produced were found to be quantitatively related. Callus tissues of T. minuta did not differentiate into organs. Nevertheless, they accumulated thiophenes throughout the incubation period. Light at 12 W m- stimulated thiophene production in T. erecta without having an apparent effect on root regeneration. In T. minuta even low irradiance levels (2 W m∼2) strongly inhibited thiophene accumulation. Under favorable conditions thiophene concentrations in calli of both species were comparable to or somewhat lower than the levels in roots on the plants and in excised, cultured roots of T. erecta. We conclude that in calli of T. erecta thiophene accumulation is coupled to root regeneration whereas a different control mechanism allowing for accumulation in disorganized tissues is operative in T. minuta.

    Development of flower buds in thin-layer cultures of floral stalk tissue from tobacco: Role of hormones in different stages (1984)

    Notes: The in vitro development of flower buds was studied on tissue explants of epidermis and subepidermal cortex from the flower stalks of Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Samsun. The number of flower buds formed depended mainly on cytokinin concentration. Auxin acted as a modifier in a complex way. In early development, NAA at 1 μM decreased the number of buds initiated and delayed bud emergence. At a later stage, auxin promoted bud outgrowth at the same concentration. Optimal results were obtained when explants were first incubated at low auxin concentration for 3–5 days and subsequently transferred to an elevated auxin level. Physiological processes that lead to flower bud initiation start very soon after the onset of incubation. This was inferred from experiments whereby explants were first cultured at an inductive cytokinin concentration and then transferred to a non-inductive hormone level.

    Effect of exogenous auxin on root morphology and secondary metabolism in Tagetes patula hairy root cultures (1995)

    Notes: In this paper the effects of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) on growth of Tagetes patula hairy root cultures and secondary product formation are presented. The biosynthesis of thiophenes, sulfurous compounds with nematicidal activity, was inhibited by IAA application, as was evident from a decrease of [35S] sulfur incorporation. The inhibition only occurred after the roots had developed numerous laterals as a result of auxin action. However, in roots cultured in the absence of IAA, there was no significant correlation between branching and thiophene accumulation. Therefore, development of lateral roots is not a sufficient condition for a low capacity to synthesize thiophenes. The highest rate of thiophene accumulation in the roots culture is at its maximum. Hence, growth and the production of thiophenes appear to be compatible in T. Patula hair roots.

    Uptake and metabolism of benzyladenine in the early stage of flower bud development in vitro in tobacco (1988)

    Notes: Benzyladenine (BA) was found to regulate the number of flower buds regenerated in vitro from pedicel tissue of tobacco. Flower bud induction was particularly sensitive to BA levels in the range of 0.45 to 1.0 μM, where a two-fold increase in concentration caused a threefold rise in the number of buds. When tissues were fed radioactive BA for 24h, only 9–12% of the counts were recovered in the original compound. The rest was present in metabolites, tentatively identified as the mono-, di- and triribotides, 7- and 9-glucosides and 9-riboside of BA. The amount of growth regulator taken up and the quantities of BA and its metabolites in the explants were all linearly related to the concentration of the medium. The internal BA concentration was ca 60% of the level in the medium after 24 h. When the concentration in the medium was raised, relatively more BA remained in the non-conjugated form. However, this change in the equilibrium between BA and the conjugates is too small to account for the steep rise in the curve representing concentration vs effect between 0.45 and 1.0 μM.

    Notes: Abstract Meiosis and sporogenesis in yeast are completely blocked by ammonia added in low concentration (10 mM) to the sporulation medium. Premeiotic DNA synthesis is not initiated in the presence of ammonium ions. The inhibitor interferes with protein turnover by reducing both synthesis and breakdown. The in vitro activities of proteinases A and B in sporulation medium supplemented with ammonia are much lower than in the control. This may partially explain the effect of ammonium ions on protein metabolism in vivo.

    Proline metabolism in pollen: degradation of proline during germination and early tube growth (1983)

    Notes: Abstract Proline degradation inPetunia pollen germinated in vitro was studied in cultures supplemented with [14C]proline labeled at different positions. Despite its abundance in the cell, this amino acid is only a minor substrate for respiration. Proline is partially converted via the citrate cycle into metabolites which can be traced in the ethanol-insoluble fraction of the cellular constituents. The fact that this conversion is much more extensive than the use of proline in respiration indicates that, in germinating pollen, the citrate cycle serves mainly for synthetic purposes. There are no indications that proline carbon is used for feeding of other amino-acid pools used for protein synthesis.

    Notes: Abstract Thiophenes are polyacetylene-related heterocyclic metabolites. Some of these compounds are phototoxic, but the bithiophenes occurring inTagetes mainly accumulate in the root where photo-activation is not likely to occur. A cell-free extract from the fungusFusarium oxysporum induced biosynthesis of hydrophilic thiophenes in root cultures and roots of seedlings ofTagetes patula. The thiophenes formed were partially excreted into the culture medium. The excreted thiophenes inhibited fungal growth in the absence of light and thus may play a role in the biochemical defense against pathogens.
