Ethanol Metabolism in Plant Tissues

Ethanolamine Metabolism in Plant Tissues" 2

Summarv. Ethanolamine is readily metabolized by oat, pea, wheat, apple and carrot tissue preparations. Ethanolamine-1,2 14C was incorporated into the lipid fraction, and 14C activity was distributed in the organic acid, sugar, acid volatile, carbon dioxide and insoluble residule fractions. The distribution varied with the particular tissue. Incorporation into the lipid fraction occurred in tiss...

Cyanide metabolism in relation to ethylene production in plant tissues.

HCN is the putative product of C-1 and amino moieties of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) during its conversion to ethylene. In apple (Malus sylvestrus Mill.) slices or auxin-treated mungbean (Vigna radiata L.) hypocotyls, which produced ethylene at high rates, the steady state concentration of HCN was found to be no higher than 0.2 micromolar, which was too low to inhibit respiratio...

Carbohydrate Metabolism in Higher Plant Tissues Infected With Obligate Parasites.

Several reports (7, 8, 22) have described apparently fundamental changes in the rates and nature of respiratory pathways during infection of higher planit tissues by obligate parasites, particularly rust fungi. Although disease can cause increases of 400 % in rates with a marked lowering of C6/C1 ratios, there is considerable uncertainty about the carbohydrate changes which accompany the respir...
