Desiccation tolerance in encysted embryos of the animal extremophile, artemia.
Encysted embryos (cysts) of the primitive crustacean, Artemia franciscana, are among the most resistant of all animal life history stages to extremes of environmental stress. These embryos, extremophiles of the animal kingdom, are the main focus of this paper. Previous work has revealed the importance of biochemical and biophysical adaptations that provide a significant part of the basis of the...
متن کاملPatterns of genetic variation in desiccation tolerance in embryos of the terrestrial-breeding frog, Pseudophryne guentheri.
Environmental change often requires evolutionary responses, and therefore understanding the genetic architecture of susceptible populations is essential for predicting their capacity to respond adaptively. However, quantitative genetic studies are rarely targeted at populations considered vulnerable to such environmental perturbations. Here, we assess the level of heritable variation in the abi...
متن کاملIn vivo characterization of the effects of abscisic acid and drying protocols associated with the acquisition of desiccation tolerance in alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) somatic embryos.
Although somatic embryos of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) had acquired some tolerance to desiccation at the cotyledonary stage of development (22 d after plating), additional culturing in 20 microm abscisic acid (ABA) for 8 d induced greater desiccation tolerance, as determined by increased germination. Compared with fast drying, slow drying of the ABA-treated embryos improved desiccation tolera...
متن کاملProteomics of desiccation tolerance during development and germination of maize embryos.
Maize seeds were used to identify the key embryo proteins involved in desiccation tolerance during development and germination. Immature maize embryos (28N) during development and mature embryos imbibed for 72 h (72HN) are desiccation sensitive. Mature maize embryos (52N) during development are desiccation tolerant. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substance and hydrogen peroxide contents decreased...
متن کاملChanged properties of the cytoplasmic matrix associated with desiccation tolerance of dried carrot somatic embryos. An In situ fourier transform infrared spectroscopic study
Abscisic acid-pretreated carrot (Daucus carota) somatic embryos survive dehydration upon slow drying, but fast drying leads to poor survival of the embryos. To determine whether the acquisition of desiccation tolerance is associated with changes in the physical stability of the cytoplasm, in situ Fourier transform infrared microspectroscopy was used. Although protein denaturation temperatures w...
