    Notes: Abstract The changes in the levels of α-amylase mRNA is barley aleurone layers in response to addition of plant growth regulators have been studied using a cloned α-amylase cDNA as the hybridization probe. An increase in gibberellic acid (GA) concentration in the incubation medium from 10−9 M to 10−6 M results in a progressive increase in α-amylase mRNA concentration in the aleurone cells. Detectable levels of α-amylase mRNA appear in the aleurone cells as early as 1 h after addition of GA. The concentration of this mRNA increases for several hours and then declines rapidly. Abscisic acid (ABA) and the amino acid analog S-2-aminoethyl-L-cysteine (AEC) suppress the GA-mediated induction of α-amylase. These compounds appear to affect the level of α-amylase mRNA in aleurone cells as measured byin vitro translation assays and by analysis of RNA blots with α-amylase cDNA probes. It is concluded that the regulation of α-amylase gene expression by ABA is at the level of transcription. Further, a protein factor appears to be required in addition to GA for transcription of α-amylase genes.

    Notes: Abstract To elucidate the phylogenetic relationships and cytoplasmic types, restriction endonuclease fragment patterns of chloroplast (cp) and mitochondrial (mt) DNAs isolated from two different accessions of Dasypyrum villosum (L.) candargy were compared with those of tetraploid wheat (Triticum durum Desf., PI265007), hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L., cv Chinese Spring), Aegilops longissimum (S. and M., in Muschli) Bowden and Hordeum vulgare L. T. aestivum and T. durum had identical restriction patterns for their cp and mtDNAs in digestions with four different enzymes. Likewise, no differences were found between the restriction fragment patterns of two accessions of D. villosum. But, there were distinct differences in chloroplast and mitochondrial DNA restriction fragment patterns between D. villosum and tetraploid and hexaploid wheats. A. longissimum (G609) showed a similar pattern to those wheats for PstI digestion of cpDNA. Organellar DNA from Hordeum vulgare (cv Himalaya) showed a distinctly different restriction pattern from those of wheat and D. villosum. These results suggest that D. villosum is unlikely to be the donor of cytoplasm to wheats, and its cytoplasmic organelles were also different from those of A. longissimum.

    Regulation of the expression of α-amylase gene by sodium butyrate (1985)

    Notes: Summary Sodium butyrate exerts a pronounced inhibition on the gibberellic acid-induced synthesis and secretion of α-amylase by aleurone cells of barley seeds. This inhibition, which is reversible and non-competitive with cespect to gibberellic acid, is concentration dependent, with virtually total inhibition being accomplished between 4 and 5 mM sodium butyrate. The pattern of inhibition of α-amylase formation correlates well with a decrease in the accumulation of its messenger RNA. The addition of butyrate 12 h after the addition of gibberellic acid to half-seeds, has no effect on the formation and secretion of α-amylase. It has been shown in earlier studies that the synthesis of α-amylase mRNAs takes about 12 h for completion. The conclusion that butyrate interferes with some step in the transcriptional process is supported by a decrease observed in the RNAs that hybridize with a cloned α-amylase cDNA. The results of in vitro translation confirm the inhibition of the formation of several translatable mRNAs. Further, immunological probing detected only trace amounts of α-amylase proteins in the secretion of butyrate-treated seeds. Translation of functional mRNAs, post-translational modifications and the secretion α-amylase are not affected by sodium butyrate. It is concluded that butyrate selectively inhibits the transcription of several genes that are under the influence of gibberellic acid. This report is the first one documenting the inhibitory effect of sodium butyrate on a hormone-induced synthesis and accumulation of mRNAs in a plant system.
