Activity of Sucrose Synthase and Acid Invertase in Wheat Seedlings During a Cold-shock Using Micro Plate Reader Assays
نویسنده
چکیده
The effect of cold–shock (2 4 C) on wheat (Triticum aestivum) sucrose metabolism is 0 investigated. Data on changes of apparent activities of sucrose synthase (SS) and acid invertase were determined in small volumes using a novel micro plate reader system which combined high rates of activity with good reproducibility and high sample throughput. Both enzymes exhibited parallel increase after 2, 4 and 6 hours of transferring the seedlings to cold conditions. These results indicate that both enzymes are involved in the plant response to chilling stress.

Effect of water deficit on carbohydrate status and enzymes of carbohydrate metabolism in seedlings of wheat cultivars.
The effect of water deficit on carbohydrate status and enzymes of carbohydrate metabolism (alpha and beta amylases, sucrose phosphate synthase, sucrose synthase, acid and alkaline invertases) in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) was investigated in the seedlings of drought-sensitive (PBW 343) and drought-tolerant (C 306) cultivars. The water deficit was induced by adding 6% mannitol (water potential...
متن کاملSucrose Synthase, Starch Accumulation, and Tomato Fruit Sink Strength.
Contrasting evidence has accumulated regarding the role of acid invertase and sucrose synthase in tomato fruit sink establishment and maintenance. In this work the relationships among the activities of sucrose synthase and acid invertase, Lycopersicon esculentum Mill cv UC-82B fruit growth, and starch accumulation were analyzed in fruit at 0 to 39 d after anthesis. Sucrose synthase, but not aci...
متن کاملA. Biochemical Assessment of the Value of Top Clipping Nursery-Grown Loblolly Pine Seedlings’ Z&i-Jean
Seasonal sucrose metabolism (sucrolysis) was studied in taproot cambial tissues of nursery-grown loblolly pine seedlings to assess the value of top clipping. In sucrose-importing taproots of nonclipped seedlings, sucrose synthase (SS) was the dominant enzyme for sucroti cleavage, and its activity exhibited a distinct seasonal activity. Both root SS activity and growth were most active during fa...
متن کاملIn vitro carbohydrate stress: salicylic acid increases soluble invertase activity in Pistacia vera L. in vitro plantlets. Françoise Bernard *, Majid Baghai and Shirin Hadad Kaveh
The action of salicylic acid (SA) has been well investigated in plant resistance against pathogen attacks but its role may be extended to a more global anti-stress plant cell strategy. The expression of defense-related functions may be also enhanced by elevated hexose levels. To verify if there exists a relation between these two defense programs, SA effect on soluble acid invertase (EC 3.2.1.2...
متن کاملCytokinin-Regulated Sucrose Metabolism in Stay-Green Wheat Phenotype
A wheat stay-green mutant, tasg1, was observed to exhibit significantly delayed senescence in the late developmental stage. The photosynthetic capacity of the flag leaf was greater in tasg1 than in wild type (WT) plants. In addition, the grain volume of tasg1 was significantly higher than that of WT at the early filling stage. The content of various cytokinins (CKs) in the grain was significant...
