Germination of lupine (Lupinus luteus L.) seeds was accompanied by an increase in concentration of free radicals with g1 and g2 values of 2.0056 ± 0.0003 and 2.0033 ± 0.0005, respectively. The highest intensity of free radical signal was observed in embryo axes immediately after radicle protruded through the seed coat. Hydrogen peroxide accumulated in embryonic axes and cotyledons during imbibition before the onset of germination in the seed population. The activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD, EC 1.15.1.1) and catalase (CAT, EC 1.11.1.6) rose progressively in embryo axes. In cotyledons SOD activity did not change significantly, while that of CAT increased during germination. The enhancement of Cu, Zn-SODs and Mn- SOD isoforms in embryonic axes was observed. A new isoform of catalase was synthesized, suggesting that it plays a relevant role during germination. SOD and CAT activities were detected in dry seeds. Free radical generation and response of antioxidative enzymes differed between embryo axes and cotyledons during the germination timecourse.
Embryonic root is the primary site of salinity perception in germinating seeds. To understand better the NaCl stress response of lupine embryo axes, ultrastructural approach combined with analysis of DNA degradation was used. In this study lupine embryo axes were cultured in vitro on the medium supplemented with two salt concentrations 250 and 500 mM to differ the reaction. To assess the rate of DNA damage, alkaline electrophoresis of isolated nuclei and DNA fragmentation analysis were performed. Results of these studies suggest programmed cell death induction under salinity stress. Moreover, ultrastructure observations revealed other characteristic features of programmed cell death like endoplasmic reticulum reorganization, increased level of vacuolization, chromatin condensation and starch grains degradation. Our comparative analysis of ultrastructure changes and DNA fragmentation speak in favour of programmed cell death in lupine (Lupinus luteus L. ‘Mister’) embryo axes treated for 12 h with 250 and 500 mM NaCl.
Analizowano stan metaboliczny zarodków izolowanych z rozwijających się i dojrzewających nasion grochu Pisum sativum na podstawie wyników oznaczeń ładunku energetycznego oraz poziomu nukleotydów adenylowych i pirydynowych. Stwierdzono, że w młodych zarodkach grochu poziom ATP i ładunek energetyczny są niskie, ale w momencie wejścia w fazę magazynowania zarówno ATP, jak i ładunek energetyczny osiągają wysoki, względnie stały poziom. Spośród utlenionych (NAD, NADP) i zredukowanych (NADH, NADPH) form nukleotydów pirydynowych najobficiej reprezentowany był NAD. NADP występował głównie w formie zredukowanej, natomiast w przypadku NAD dominowała forma utleniona nukleotydu. Stwierdzono, że początkowy rozwój zarodków grochu zachodzi w warunkach hipoksji, co potwierdzają oznaczenia poziomu ATP i ładunku energetycznego tkanek zarodków.
Germination is the first step of plant growth in plant life cycle. An embryonic radicle protruding the seed coat is the first part of plant which has direct contact with external environment including salt-affected soil. In embryo axes, mitochondria are the main energy producer. To understand better salinity impact on mitochondria functioning, this study was focused on the effect of NaCl stress onto mitochondria proteome. Mitochondria were isolated from yellow lupine (Lupine luteus L. ‘Mister’) embryo axes cultured in vitro for 12 h with 250 and 500 mM NaCl. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis of mitochondrial proteins isolated from NaCl-treated axes demonstrated significant changes in proteins abundances as a response to salinity treatment. Twenty-one spots showing significant changes in protein expression profiles both under 250 and 500 mM NaCl treatment were selected for tandem mass spectrometry identification. This approach revealed proteins associated with different metabolic processes that represent enzymes of tricarboxylic acid cycle, mitochondrial electron transport chain, enzymes and proteins involved in mitochondria biogenesis and stresses response. Among proteins involved in mitochondria biogenesis, mitochondrial import inner membrane translocase, subunit Tim17/22, mitochondrial-processing peptidase subunit alpha-1, mitochondrial elongation factor Tu and chaperonins CPN60 were revealed. Finally, formate dehydrogenase 1 was found to accumulate in lupine embryo axes mitochondria under salinity. The functions of identified proteins are discussed in relation to salinity stress response, including salinity-induced PCD.
Embryo axes of lupine (Lupinus luteus L. ‘Mister’) were subjected to 0.1 M NaCl salt stress for 24 and 48 h. The ultrastructure modification and adjustment of antioxidant enzymes activities and izoenzymes profiles were observed. In cells of lupine embryo axes grown for 48 hours in medium with 0.1 M NaCl mitochondria took the forked shape and bulges of the outer mitochondrial membranes appeared. Moreover, the inflating and swelling of rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) lumen and fragmentation of RER were noticed. The level of H2O2 was higher in salt treated embryo axes after 24 hours and increase of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances was observed after both 24 and 48 h of salt treatment. Native gel electrophoresis showed increased intensities of bands for catalase isozymes in response to salt stress, whereas activity of catalase was higher only in embryo axes grown for 48 h in control conditions. Appearance of two new isoforms of ascorbate peroxidase was observed after 48 h only under control condition, however increased activities were stated for both control and salt-stress condition after 48 h. No changes in isozymes pattern for superoxide dismutase were observed, but significant decrease in superoxide dismutase activity was noticed in relation to time and salt stress. Possible role of these enzymes in salt stress tolerance is discussed. The 0.1 M salt stress is regarded as a middle stress for lupine embryo axes and the efficiency of stress prevention mechanisms is proposed.
