Enhanced 3-methoxytyramine levels in crown gall tumours and other undifferentiated plant tissues.

چکیده
An amine, after dansylation, has been isolated from Nicotiana tabacum crown gall tumours for the first time and characterized as 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-beta-phenylethylamine (3-methoxytyramine). The compound cannot be detected in differentiated N. tabacum tissues but appears in the corresponding callus controls. Its concentration is further increased 5-42-fold when N. tabacum is transformed with all strains of Agrobacterium tumefaciens so far tested.

Cultivar of roses (Rosa spp.) has been grown in greenhouses in Qazvin region of Iran for local markets. Agrobacterium tumefaciens strains were isolated and identified from six different samples of roses plants imported from the Netherland to Iran. During August and September of 2012, nearly 2-5% of rose plants in two different greenhouses in the province of Qazvin were observed with crown gall ...

Several kinds of primary sunflower (Helianthus annuus) crown gall tissues were established in tissue culture and then labeled in vivo with either [(14)C]arginine, [(14)C]histidine, [(3)H]lysine, or [(3)H]ornithine. Crown gall tissues incited by Agrobacterium tumefaciens strains that utilize octopine as a sole source of carbon or nitrogen for growth synthesized the four members of the N(2)-(1-ca...
متن کاملHormonal control of tobacco crown gall tumor morphology.
The endogenous levels of auxin and cytokinin in teratoma and unorganized tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L. var Wisconsin #38) crown gall tumor tissues were determined. Teratoma tissues contain levels of auxin and cytokinin favorable for shoot formation, whereas unorganized tumors contain levels of auxin that suppress shoot formation. This conclusion is based upon the observation that when levels of...

Knowledge of the initiation mechanism of the crown-gall disease incited by Agrobacterium tuimefaciens (Smith & Town.) and the subsequent growth of the abnormal tissue is fundamental to understanding diseased growth (2, 18, 24). The nutritional requirements for normal and gall tissues have been intensively studied (25), and the necessity for proper balance of amino acids and growth substances in...

Attempts were made to provide proof for the occurrence of cyclic 3',5'-adenosine monophosphate in healthy and crown gall tissues of Vicia faba. Although our purified extracts gave positive readings in the Gilman binding assay for cyclic AMP, they were not digested by a specific cyclic 3',5'-adenosine monophosphate phosphodiesterase from beef heart. The extracts were digested, however, by a part...
