The effects of acifluorfen and oxyfluorfen on photosynthetic electron transport reactions of pea chloroplasts were compared with those induced by paraquat and monuron. Monuron inhibited electron flow between photosystems I and II, and paraquat acted as an electron acceptor for photosystem I, promoting superoxide formation by illuminated chloroplasts. Neither acifluorfen nor oxyfluorfen at concentrations up to 50 μM affected non-cyclic electron flow or promoted superoxide formation. Both herbicides were shown to repress ferredoxin-dependent NADP+ reduction by illuminated chloroplasts. Further experiments showed that, in the presence of ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase and chloroplast membranes maintained in the dark, p-nitro diphenyl ether (DPE) herbicides promoted the rate of ferredoxin-dependent oxidation of NADPH, implying that these herbicides can accept electrons from reduced ferredoxin. The interaction between acifluorfen, ferredoxin and chloroplast membranes was examined further by following the effect of this herbicide on the peroxidation of illuminated thylakoids. Lipid peroxidation was promoted by acifluorfen, although this effect was abolished if thylakoids were washed prior to use. The effect of washing could be reversed by adding exogenous ferredoxin. These data demonstrate that interaction of DPE herbicides with photosynthetic electron transport in the vicinity of ferredoxin is necessary for light-dependent herbicide activation.  相似文献

Several physiological and biochemical actions of a new experimental herbicide, S-23142 [N-(4-chloro-2-fluoro-5-propargyloxyphenyl)-3,4,5,6-tetrahydrophthalimide], have been investigated. S-23142 was active under the presence of light and oxygen. Photosynthetic CO2 fixation in soybean began to decrease 4–5 hr after the foliar treatment of S-23142, being accompanied by the appearance of visible bleaching and wilting of the plants. A large amount of ethane, the products of peroxidation of unsaturated fatty acids, was produced from the cotyledon discs of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) treated with S-23142. Leakage of ATP was also observed. S-23142 did not inhibit photosynthetic oxygen evolution of the discs just after the application; however, the oxygen evolution rate decreased as the treated discs produced ethane. The results suggest that cell membrane and chloroplast membrane were deteriorated by the membrane lipid peroxidation. S-23142 also induced ethylene production and a high level of phenylalanine-ammonia lyase activity in cucumber cotyledon, which was regarded as the phenomena of stress response. Only the ethylene production was inhibited by aminoethoxyvinylglycine and cycloheximide, while the ethane production was not affected. All of these actions of S-23142 were essentially the same as those of acifluorfen ethyl except that the activity of S-23142 was more than 10 times higher than that of acifluorfen ethyl. These data strongly suggest that S-23142 belongs to the same group as diphenylethers in its mechanisms of action despite the difference in chemical structure.  相似文献

We quantified the resistance levels of transgenic rice plants, expressing Myxococcus xanthus protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PROTOX) in chloroplasts and mitochondria, to PROTOX inhibitors, acifluorfen, oxyfluorfen, carfentrazone-ethyl, and oxadiazon. We also determined whether active oxygen species-scavenging enzymes are involved in the resistance mechanism of transgenic rice. The transgenic rice line M4 was about >200-fold more resistant to oxyfluorfen than the wild-type (WT). M4 was also resistant to acifluorfen, carfentrazone-ethyl, and oxadiazon, but did not show multiple resistance to imazapyr and paraquat, which have different target sites. Acifluorfen, oxyfluorfen, carfentrazone-ethyl, and oxadiazon reduced the chlorophyll content in leaves of WT, but had minimal or no effect on M4. The PROTOX inhibitors also caused significant lipid peroxidation in the treated leaves of WT rice. However, the malondialdehyde production in M4 was not affected by these herbicides. The WT rice had higher activities of superoxide dismutase, catalase, ascorbate peroxidase, and glutathione reductase than M4 after treatment with PROTOX inhibitors. A similar response was observed in all cases of antioxidant isozyme profiles analyzed. However, the induction in antioxidant activity in WT was not enough to overcome the toxic effects of a PROTOX inhibitor so the plant eventually died.  相似文献

The herbicidal action of acifluorfen {5-[2-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy]-2-nitrobenzoic acid} was studied with greened and expanded discs from cotyledons of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.). Discs were floated on various treatment solutions for 20 hr in darkness before exposure to 400 μE m?2 sec?1 of white light. Herbicide damage, as measured by electrolyte leakage, began in the light after a 1- to 2-hr lag period. Cytochemical methods at the ultrastructural level indicated that acifluorfen caused marked increases in production of superoxide radical and hydrogen peroxide in the mitochondrion, but not in the plastid. The mitochondrial inhibitors antimycin A, rotenone, CCCP, and DNP antagonized the action of acifluorfen, lengthening the lag period and reducing the rate of electrolyte leakage. Ethanol, α-tocopherol, N-[2-(2-oxo-1-imidazolidinyl)ethyl]-N′-phenylurea, and copper-penicillin also lengthened the lag phase and slowed the rate of damage, indicating that acifluorfen damage involves toxic oxygen species. PS II-inhibiting levels of DCMU, atrazine, or bentazon did not affect acifluorfen-induced ion leakage. Yellow tissue produced by treatment with tentoxin was supersensitive to acifluorfen, but white tissue produced by treatment with norflurazon was relatively insensitive. These data indicate that, after an initial carotenoid-acifluorfen interaction, the mitochondrion is involved in production of toxic oxygen species and that this process is closely tied to the mechanism of action of this herbicide.  相似文献

The potential involvement of hydroxyl and alkoxyl radicals in the peroxidative action of the p-nitro diphenyl ether herbicides acifluorfen (5-[2-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxyl]-2-nitrobenzoic acid), acifluorfen-methyl (methyl ester of acifluorfen), nitrofen [2,4-dichloro-1-(4-nitrophenoxy)benzene], nitrofluorfen [2-chloro-1-(4-nitrophenoxy)-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzene], and oxyfluorfen [2-chloro-1-(3-ethoxy-4-nitrophenoxy)-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzene] was evaluated under laboratory conditions. Methional was added to illuminated thylakoids from peas (Pisum sativum L., cv Little Marvel) and its oxidation to ethylene was used as an indicator of hydroxyl and alkoxyl radical production. Oxyfluorfen stimulated the rate of methional oxidation by 138% at 10 μM and 175% at 1 mM. This oxyfluorfen-induced stimulation of the rate of methional oxidation was dependent on light, photosynthetic electron transport, and hydrogen peroxide since it was not observed under dark conditions or in the presence of DCMU and catalase. Addition of Fe-EDTA, a catalyst of the Fenton reaction, stimulated the oxyfluorfen-induced enhancement of methional oxidation sixfold, suggesting that hydroxyl radicals are synthesized through a Fenton reaction. Acifluorfen, nitrofen, and nitrofluorfen inhibited the rate of methional oxidation whereas acifluorfen-methyl had no effect on the rate of methional oxidation, even at high concentrations (1 mM). Nitrofluorfen at 1 mM was the only p-nitro diphenyl ether herbicide tested to inhibit photosynthetic electron transport of pea thylakoids. In experiments with pea leaf disks, acifluorfen at low concentrations stimulated the rate of methional oxidation, whereas acifluorfen-methyl, nitrofen, and nitrofluorfen had no effect. These data indicate that hydroxyl and alkoxyl radicals could be involved in the mechanism of cellular damage caused by oxyfluorfen but they are not important for the activity of the diphenyl ether herbicides acifluorfen, acifluorfen-methyl, nitrofen, and nitrofluorfen.  相似文献

Leakage of electrolytes from leaf discs of treated Phaseolus Vulgaris L. plants was the main criterion used to study the effect of several chemicals on the permeability of leaf-cell membranes. Paraquat, diquat, dinoseb and oxyfluorfen (2-chloro-1-(3-ethoxy-4-nitrophenoxy)-4-(Trifluoromethyl) benzene) increased leaf-cell membrane permeability after exposure for 12 h or less. An‘aromatic’oil caused a large increase in permeability at 2–5 min after treatment. Increases in electrolyte release were also correlated with release of soluble amino acids from the leaf discs but the former method was the more sensitive. Increase in cell membrane permeability was always associated with injury symptoms such as appearance of necrotic areas in leaves. Chlorpropham, linuron, sodium azide, glyphosate and 2,4-D at 10?3M, as well as 1% X-77 surfactant and a non-phytotoxic isoparaffinic oil did not alter leaf-cell permeability at 12 h after treatment. Light was necessary for paraquat and oxyfluorfen to alter leaf cell permeability. Paraquat and oxyfluorfen caused a greater increase in leaf-cell permeability of a soybean mutant with yellow leaves as compared with the normal green leaves. With oxyfluorfen this difference in permeability was greater than with paraquat, and was associated with the appearance of severe necrotic injury symptoms in the yellow mutant; paraquat caused no injury symptoms.  相似文献

The diphenyl ethers acifluorfen (sodium-5-[2-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)-phenoxyl]-2-nitrobenzoate), acifluorfen-methyl (methyl-5-[2-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)-phenoxyl]-2-nitrobenzoate), and oxyfluorfen (2-chloro-1-[3-ethoxy-4-nitrophenoxy]-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzene have an absolute light requirement for herbicidal activity. CO2-dependent O2 evolution was inhibited in leaf disks obtained from 5-week-old spinach plants as a result of incubation in the light in the presence of each of the three diphenyl ethers. I50's were determined for inhibition by the diphenyl ethers of CO2-dependent O2 evolution in intact chloroplasts obtained from three species of varying susceptibilities (spinach, coffeeweed, and pea). Rankings obtained correlated well with relative susceptibilities and with relative effectiveness of the three compounds tested. Coupled and uncoupled photosynthetic electron transport in susceptible species were unaffected by the three compounds at concentrations in the I50 range. Exposure to herbicidally inactive isomeric analogs of oxyfluorfen and acifluorfen did not affect photosynthesis in leaf disks but was effective in inhibiting photosynthesis in isolated chloroplasts. Photosynthetic abilities of intact tissue were not affected by herbicide treatment in red light. Red light was, however, as effective as white light in mediating the inhibition of photosynthesis in isolated intact chloroplasts by diphenyl ethers. The existence of two photoreceptors for diphenyl ether action, one located at the chloroplast envelope and a second outside of the chloroplast, is suggested as a possible basis for these findings.  相似文献

Pelargonic acid (PA), an aliphatic 9-carbon monocarboxylic acid, is a phytotoxic burn-down compound. In the light peroxidizing activity can be measured as ethane and propane formation with cress or tobacco seedlings. This effect is strong at low pH (4–5), and saturated acids with 9–10 carbon atoms represent the optimum chain length. Methyl or ethyl esters are inactive, and safeners have no influence. In contrast to the peroxidative herbicides like acifluorfen methyl neither photosynthesis nor protoporphyrin IX is involved, although peroxidation requires light. Chlorophyll is necessary since etiolated seedlings show little peroxidation. Singlet oxygen quenchers like eugenol markedly reduce peroxidation. Membrane leakage of a similar rate is observed in light as well as in darkness. PA was described as a penetration enhancer intercalating with membranes. Our data corroborate that conclusion. Accordingly, the herbicidal mode of action of pelargonic acid is due first to membrane leakage in dark or light and second to peroxidation driven by radicals originating in the light by sensitized chlorophyll displaced from the thylakoids.  相似文献

Plant cells possess a number of membrane bound organelles that play important roles in compartmentalizing a large number of biochemical pathways and physiological functions that have potentially harmful intermediates or by-products. The plasma membrane is particularly important as it holds the entire cellular structure whole and is at the interface between the cell and its environment. Consequently, breaches in the integrity of the lipid bilayer, often via reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced stress membrane peroxidation, result in uncontrolled electrolyte leakage and in cell death. A simple 3-step bioassay was developed to identify compounds that cause electrolyte leakage and to differentiate light-dependent mechanisms of action from those that work in darkness. Herbicides representative of all known modes of action (as well as several natural phytotoxins) were selected to survey their effects on membrane integrity of cucumber cotyledon discs. The most active compounds were those that are known to generate ROS such as the electron diverters and uncouplers (paraquat and dinoterb) and those that either were photodynamic (cercosporin) or caused the accumulation of photodynamic products (acifluorfen-methyl and sulfentrazone). Other active compounds targeted lipids (diclofop-methyl, triclosan and pelargonic acid) or formed pores in the plasma membrane (syringomycin). Herbicides that inhibit amino acid, protein, nucleotide, cell wall or microtubule synthesis did not have any effect. Therefore, it was concluded that the plant plasma membrane is a good biomarker to help identify certain herbicide modes of action and their dependence on light for bioactivity.  相似文献

Paraquat is labeled for row-middle application on cucurbits, but drift to crop foliage is inevitable. Experiments were conducted to determine whether differential tolerance to paraquat existed among leaves of various ages in Cucurbita spp. (squash) and other plants, and to examine whether leaves tolerant to paraquat are also tolerant to other herbicides and abiotic stresses. Physiological responses to paraquat, including antioxidant activity, were investigated in squash leaves to identify mechanisms of paraquat tolerance. Although the level of paraquat tolerance differed by leaf age, cultivar, and species, the level of paraquat injury was lower in younger leaves than in older leaves in 14 of 18 squash cultivars and 5 of 12 other species tested. Cellular leakage and lipid peroxidation were consistently lower in the youngest leaf (leaf 4) than in the older leaves. Quantum yield and relative chlorophyll content were the same in all leaves of nontreated plants. Epicuticular wax content was higher in the youngest leaf than in leaves 1, 2, and 3 of cv. ‘Joongangaehobak’ and ‘Wonbiaehobak’. However, leaf cuticle content was not consistent with leaf ages. Differential leaf response to paraquat was partially correlated with the change in catalase, peroxidase, ascorbate peroxidase (APX), and glutathione reductase activities in nontreated and treated leaves. The APX activity in the youngest leaf was generally 2 times higher than in leaves 1-3 in both nontreated and treated plants. Ascorbate antioxidant levels were also higher in the youngest leaf than those in leaves 1-3. Leaves tolerant to paraquat were also tolerant to diquat and to abiotic stresses, low temperature and drought. However, tolerance to oxyfluorfen, which has a different mode of action than paraquat and diquat, was higher in older than in younger leaves. Higher tolerance to paraquat-mediated oxidative and abiotic stresses in young leaves of most squash cultivars might contribute to the differential prevention of oxidative damage in leaves of various ages.  相似文献

Lipoxygenase activity and protein, production of lipid-derived volatiles, and lipid peroxidation levels were determined in pepper (Capsicum annuum L., cv. Early Calwonder-10R) leaves during the hypersensitive reaction induced by avirulent race 2 of Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria. Lipoxygenase activity increased during the collapse phase of the hypersensitive reaction (8 to 12 h after inoculation), and an increase in electrolyte leakage occurred. However, Western blot analysis revealed that lipoxygenase proteins decreased during the same period. When only one longitudinal half of a pepper leaf was inoculated with the avirulent bacterium race, a significant increase in lipoxygenase activity was observed in both inoculated and noninoculated leaf halves, 10 h after inoculation. In addition, lipoxygenase protein decreased in inoculated leaf halves, but remained unchanged in noninoculated ones. The evolution of some volatile compounds derived from the lipoxygenase pathway [(E,E)-2,4-hexadienal, 1-hexanol, 3-hexen-1-ol, 2,4-hexadienal and 2,4-eptadienal] and carotenoid degradation (α- and β-ionone) increased in the incompatible interaction during the collapse phase of the hypersensitive reaction. The level of the oxidative index (A235/A205) of leaf lipid extracts, determined to estimate lipid peroxidation, significantly increased in the advanced stage of the hypersensitive reaction. Furthermore, determination of the oxidative index in neutral lipid, glycolipid and phospholipid fractions showed that the oxidative index was significantly increased only in the glycolipid fraction. Lipoxygenase activity and protein, electrolyte leakage, volatiles and lipid peroxidation were not changed in pepper leaves inoculated with the virulent race 1 of X. campestris pv.vesicatoria during the time interval considered (2–12 h after inoculations). The hypothesis that a lipoxygenase with chloroplastic location is induced in the incompatible interaction, and which is responsible for the increase in lipid peroxidation is advanced.  相似文献

A human protoporphyrinogen oxidase (Protox) coding sequence under the control of a ubiquitin promoter was introduced into rice to determine whether transgenic rice overexpressing the human Protox gene exhibits resistance against a peroxidizing herbicide. The transgenic rice lines (H3, H4, H5, H6, H9, and H10) transcribed the human Protox mRNA, whereas hybridizing RNA band was not detected in wild-type rice, indicating that the human Protox gene had been successfully transmitted into transgenic rice plants. The transgenic lines H9 and H10 showed growth retardation and light-dependent formation of necrotic lesions. Compared with wild-type rice plants, rice with a human Protox gene had increased Protox activity and content of the photosensitizer protoporphyrin IX, and reduced chlorophyll. The photosynthetic efficiency in lines H9 and H10, as indicated by Fv/Fm, was not different from that of wild type. The two transgenic lines had decreased levels of antheraxanthin, lutein, and β-carotene and similar levels of neoxanthin and violaxanthin as compared with wild-type plants. The staining activities of catalase, peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, and glutathione reductase were higher in transgenic lines than in wild type. Line H9 germinated in the presence of 20 μM oxyfluorfen, whereas 2 μM oxyfluorfen inhibited the germination of wild-type seeds. Thus, the transgenic rice plants exhibited enhanced resistance to oxyfluorfen.  相似文献

Ramularia collo-cygni, a pathogenic deuteromycete, is the causal agent of Ramularia leaf spot disease on barley. It produces a number of coloured metabolites of which one was identified as rubellin D, a phytotoxin only described for Mycosphaerella rubella until now. Rubellin D induces light- and concentration-dependent necrosis on barley leaves. In a biochemical model system we could demonstrate that rubellin D exhibits photodynamic activity triggering the light-dependent production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The use of inhibitors of ROS production confirmed mainly the production of singlet oxygen and to a lesser extent superoxide. In addition, light-dependent peroxidation of α-linolenic acid by rubellin D was shown. Based on our results we present a model for ROS-mediated symptom induction on barley leaves by Ramularia collo-cygni.  相似文献

Metabolism of the substituted diphenylether herbicide, acifluorfen [sodium 5-(2-chloro-4-trifluoromethylphenoxy)-2-nitrobenzoate], was studied in excised leaf tissues of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr. ‘Evans’]. Studies with [chlorophenyl-14C]- and [nitrophenyl-14C]acifluorfen showed that the diphenylether bond was rapidly cleaved. From 85 to 95% of the absorbed [14C]acifluorfen was metabolized in less than 24 hr. Major polar metabolites were isolated and purified by solvent partitioning, adsorption, thin layer, and high-performance liquid chromatography. The major [chlorophenyl-14C]-labeled metabolite was identified as a malonyl-β- -glucoside (I) of 2-chloro-4-trifluoromethylphenol. Major [nitrophenyl-14C]-labeled metabolites were identified as a homoglutathione conjugate [S-(3-carboxy-4-nitrophenyl) γ-glutamyl-cysteinyl-β-alanine] (II), and a cysteine conjugate [S-(3-carboxy-4-nitrophenyl)cysteine] (III).  相似文献

‘Sylgard® 309’ organosilicone surfactant is a very effective adjuvant for broadleaf weed control with a number of herbicides. It is also effective in providing rainfastness lo these post-emergence herbicide applications. To elucidate the basis for herbicide activity enhancement and rainfastness, the absorption of [14C]acifluorfen, [14C]bentazone and [14C]‘Sylgard 309’ were studied. Non-ionic surfactants and crop oil concentrates were used as adjuvants with [14C]acifluorfen and [14C]bentazone, respectively, for purposes of comparison. Maximum absorption of [14C]acifluorfen and [14C]bentazone was obtained within 15 min after herbicide application with the organosilicone, versus ≥ 24 h with the convenlional adjuvants. [14C]-Organosilicone absorption closely paralleled that of the [14C]-herbicides. The organosilicone appears to exert its action by increasing greatly herbicide absorption. The enhancement effect did not appear to be a function of reduced surface tension. Rainfastness appeared to be a result of greatly accelerated herbicide penetration through the leaf cuticle in the presence of the organosilicone.  相似文献

阔叶杂草是苗圃中重要的危害性杂草,然而控制苗圃阔叶杂草的有效化学方法却很少,主要原因是能防除阔叶草的除草剂往往对苗木不安全或缺少对其安全性研究。选择甲嘧磺隆、乙氧氟草醚和扑草净3种杀草谱较广的除草剂,通过2015年田间小区试验,研究不同用量下这3种除草剂对苗圃常见苗木云南黄馨、金钟扦插苗成苗、发芽、生根、株高等因素的影响。结果显示:用药时雨水、土壤湿度可严重影响植物生长状况,雨水多、湿度大,则发根、出叶少;用药时间影响药剂效应,扦插前用药,药剂影响大于扦插后用药,这可能是扦插前、扦插后苗在遇药时的叶芽状态及水分不同所造成的。研究还发现,药剂对苗木成苗无不良影响,7.5 g a.i./hm~275%甲嘧磺隆WDG处理对苗木出叶、株高无影响;而在生根方面,在药后30 d,只有对照的71.1%,用药后100 d,与对照相当,乙氧氟草醚144、288 g a.i./hm~2,扑草净450、900 g a.i./hm~24个处理的结果与甲嘧磺隆7.5 g a.i./hm~2处理相同;对于甲嘧磺隆15 g a.i./hm~2处理,在前期对苗木出叶、生根都有较大影响,3个月后影响逐渐减少甚至消失;甲嘧磺隆22.5 g a.i./hm~2处理对苗木出叶、生根、株高的抑制可持续3个月以上。  相似文献

The effects of Ascochyta blight (caused by Mycosphaerella pinodes ) on the net photosynthetic rate of glasshouse-grown dried pea were studied on foliar discs and whole plants in pots showing different disease intensities, assessed visually using a disease scale (scores 0 to 5) or by an estimation of the fraction of leaf area with necrosis using an image analyser. The photosynthetic rate of foliar discs was measured using a leaf disc electrode; for plants it was assessed by CO2 exchange rate measurements in a closed chamber. A reduction in the net photosynthetic rate of diseased plants was correlated with an increase in disease score. A 53–56% reduction was found in foliar discs with a mean disease score of 3. On whole plants, mean scores of 3.5 and 4.0 were associated with reductions of 36% and 98% respectively. The disease also induced a decrease in the photosynthetic efficiency of the non-necrotic leaf area. The photosynthetic rate was zero when 30–40% of foliar area was necrotic on foliar discs and on whole plants. A function was derived from the foliar disc data that described the dependence of photosynthetic rate on the fraction of leaf area without necrosis. The model is discussed with reference to data obtained from entire plants and other pathosystems.  相似文献

Polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies reactive with acifluorfen (AF) were prepared by the immunization of, respectively, rabbits and mice with AF-bovine serum albumin conjugates. The reactivities of polyclonal antibody and three monoclonal antibodies (AF 9-1, AF 51-5 and AF 75-144) were examined in an indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (C-ELISA). The polyclonal antibody reacted with AF at concentrations of 1·5 to 800 μg litre-1, while the monoclonal antibodies reacted with AF at concentrations of 3 to 24 μg litre-1 for AF 9-1, 1·5 to 12 μg litre-1 for AF 51-5 and 12 to 48 μg litre-1 for AF 75-144. In the presence of up to 40% methanol in C-ELISA, the monoclonal antibodies, particularly AF 75-144, were less affected in their reactivities with AF than was the polyclonal antibody. Moreover AF 9-1 and AF 51-5 specifically reacted with acifluorfen-methyl and oxyfluorfen, while AF 75-144 reacted with chlornitrofen which did not react with the other antibodies. These results indicated that the antibodies are useful for the assay of AF and its related compounds. © 1997 SCI.  相似文献
