چکیده

A novel antifungal protein with a molecular mass around 50 kDa was purified from seeds of Sesbania virgata (Cav.) Pers. using ammonium sulfate fractionation followed by gel filtration on a Sephadex G-75 Superfine (Sigma) column and reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography on a C8 column. The protein, designated FP1-A, with a novel N-terminal sequence AMVHSPGG(S)FS(P), showed growth inhibitory activity of filamentous fungi Aspergillus niger, Cladosporium cladosporioides, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides and Fusarium solani.

Diverse patterns of cell wall mannan/galactomannan occurrence in seeds of the Leguminosae.

Endosperms from seeds of different subfamilies of Leguminosae were submitted to sequential aqueous and alkaline aqueous extractions. The extractions from species belonging to the Mimosoideae and Faboideae subfamilies yielded galactomannans with constant Man:Gal ratios, whereas the extractions from Caesalpinioideae seeds gave rise to galactomannans with increasing values of the Man:Gal ratio. Th...

Parameters affecting the early seedling development of four neotropical trees under oxygen deprivation stress.

Some of the parameters that determine flooding resistance-and consequently habitat zonation-were investigated in four neotropical trees (Schizolobium parahyba, Sebastiania commersoniana, Erythrina speciosa and Sesbania virgata). The constitutive parameters of seeds (size, nature and amount of reserves) only partly influenced resistance to flooding, mainly through a high carbohydrate : size rati...

Longitudinal differentiation in chromosomes of some Sesbania Scop, species (Fabaceae)

Three different techniques were applied to analyze the patterns of longitudinal chromosome differentiation in five Sesbania species (S. exasperata, S. punicea, S. sesban, S. tetraptera, and two different geographical populations of S. virgata). For all the species investigated, the prophase chromosome condensation was always proximal. After staining with the fluorochromes chromomycin A, and DAP...
