چکیده
A pulse of blue light induced both a transient increase in activity of apoplastic K+ and membrane depolarization in laminar pulvinus of Phaseolus vulgaris L. This shows that blue-light-induced net efflux of K+ from motor cells is closely related to membrane depolarization.

Blue-light-dependent osmoregulation in protoplasts of Phaseolus vulgaris Pulvini.
Blue light was found to induce shrinkage of the protoplasts isolated from first-leaf lamina pulvini of 18-day-old Phaseolus vulgaris. The response was transient following pulse stimulation, while it was sustainable during continuous stimulation. No apparent difference was found between flexor and extensor protoplasts. Protoplasts of the petiolar segment located close to the pulvinus showed no d...
متن کاملPossible involvement of phototropins in leaf movement of kidney bean in response to blue light.
The leaf of kidney bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) moves in response to blue light. The movement is induced by a decrease in the turgor pressure of pulvinar motor cells on the irradiated side. In this study, we investigated the initial event of the movement with respect to function of phototropin and the plasma membrane H+-ATPase in the motor cells. The results indicated that, in dark conditions, pho...
متن کاملThe effects of Damavand volcanic ash on some morphological and physiological characteristics of Phaseolus vulgaris
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Damavand volcanic ash on the morphological and physiological characteristics of beans as a factorial experiment in a completely randomized design. The results showed that the highest dry leaf weight was observed in 100 mg/L treatment per liter of volcanic ash (0.0099 g). The results also showed that the optimal sugar content of the solu...
متن کاملChloride Availability Affects the Malate Content and its Control by the Circadian Clock in Pulvini of Phaseolus coccineus
Chloride Availability, Circadian Leaf M ovem ent, Citrate, Malate, Phaseolus coccineus L. In soil-grown 3to 4-weeks-old Phaseolus coccineus L. plants the chloride content changed antagonistically in the extensor and flexor of the laminar pulvinus during the circadian leaf movement in continuous light. This is as expected for an osmoticum involved in the volume changes of pulvinar cells. H oweve...
متن کاملComparison of urban solid waste leachate and vermi-compost as foliar spray and root media on nutritional performance of Phaseolus vulgaris L.
Two laboratory and greenhouse experiments were carried out to compare and evaluate the nutrition of Phaseolus vulgaris L. plant with foliar spray and root media. In laboratory, effect of four treatments; N- nutrition solution; Urban solid waste leachate (USWL); vermi-compost extract and control (distilled water) on germination and seeding growth of Phaseolus vulgaris L. was examined for 10 days...
