Changes caused by NaCl-induced salinity on several growth parameters and ions accumulation have been measured in five olive (Olea europaea L.) cultivars (‘Chemlali’, ‘Chetoui’, ‘Koroneiki’, ‘Arbequina I18’, and ‘Arbosana I43’) growing in a greenhouse in nutrient solution pot experiment. One-year-old plants were transplanted to sand–perlite (1:1) culture, and were irrigated with half-strength Hoagland nutrient solution containing NaCl at various levels (0.5, 50, 100 and 200 mM). Salinity induced significant decrease in growth parameters, but to a different extent in each cultivar. Leaf growth and total leaf area per plant were significantly affected by all salinity treatments in all studied cultivars, being ‘Arbequina I18’ the most sensitive cultivar. Leaf drop phenomenon was observed from 60 days after salt application at high salinity treatments, mainly in Arbequina I18. Contrary to leaf area, leaf thickness increased progressively during the experiment. ‘Chemlali’ developed thicker leaves at the two highest salinity treatments when compared to the other cultivars. Na+ and Cl− concentrations were higher in roots than in shoots and leaves in most of the cultivars investigated. The effectiveness of Na+ exclusion mechanism in the roots differed significantly among studied cultivars, working effectively in ‘Chemlali’ (by inhibiting translocation of Na+ to the aerial part) and being much less efficient in ‘Arbequina I18’. Furthermore, leaf abscission can be considered as an additional tolerance mechanism of olive cultivars allowing the elimination of leaves that had accumulated Na+ and Cl− ions. Tolerance to salinity stress was as follows: ‘Chemlali’ > ‘Chetoui’ > ‘Arbosana I43’ > ‘Koroneiki’ > ‘Arbequina I18’. This order of salt tolerance was indicated by lower reduction in plant growth parameters (shoot elongation, trunk diameter, total plant dry weight, internodes length, and total leaf area), the increase of leaf thickness, and by the effectiveness of the exclusion mechanism of Na+ and Cl− in the root system.  相似文献

Twenty-five genotypes of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp.) were tested for salt-tolerance at the vegetative growth stage in pot in the greenhouse experiments at salinity levels of 0, 85, and 170 mM NaCl. Plant survival was the main criterion for classifying genotypes. Other criteria included the ion concentration (Na+ and Cl−) in root and shoot and biomass accumulation. Four local accessions (‘Paceño’, ‘Tardón’, ‘Sonorense’, and ‘Cuarenteño’), three accessions from California (‘CB46’, ‘CB27’, and ‘CB3’), and one accession from the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) (‘IT82D-889’) survived at concentrations of both 85 and 170 mM NaCl and were classified as salt-tolerant, while ‘IT96D-666’, ‘IT89KD-288’, and ‘IT93K-734’ from IITA were classified as salt-sensitive. One local accession (‘Sesenteño’), three accessions from IITA (‘PEPH-V Wes-85’, ‘IT86D-719’, and ‘IT95K-1090-12’), and one accession from California (‘CB5’) were classified as moderately salt-tolerant. Eight accessions from IITA (‘IT96D-733’, ‘IT90K-277-2’, ‘IT91K-93-10’, ‘IT91K-118-20’, ‘IT90K-284-2’, ‘IT95K-1088-4’, ‘IT89KD-391’, and ‘IT94K-437-1’) and one from California (‘CB88’) were classified as moderately salt-sensitive. Biomass was affected by both 85 and 170 mM NaCl in all groups of genotypes, however, salt-tolerant and moderately salt-tolerant genotypes showed higher biomass than genotypes classified as moderately salt-sensitive and salt-sensitive. In all genotypes Cl− concentration was higher in shoots than roots and increased as salinity increased. Similarly Na+ concentration increased with increasing salinity. However, in salt-tolerant and moderately salt-tolerant genotypes, Na+ concentration was more in roots than shoots, while in moderately salt-sensitive and salt-sensitive genotypes, Na+ was higher in shoots than roots.  相似文献

Salt tolerance of five cultivars of Capsicum annuum L. Early Jalapeno, Golden Treasure, NuMex Sweet, NuMex Joe E. Parker, and Santa Fe Grande, two cultivars of C. chinense Jacq. Habanero and Pimienta De Chiera, and one accession of C. annuum, NMCA 10652, were evaluated in a field study. Seedlings were transplanted in late May to field raised beds containing loamy sand soils in a semi-arid environment. Plants were well irrigated throughout the experiment. Three saline solution treatments, prepared by adding NaCl, MgSO4, and CaCl2 to tap water at different amounts to create three salinity levels of 0.82 dS m−1 (control, tap water), 2.5 dS m−1, and 4.1 dS m−1 electrical conductivity (EC), were initiated on 15th June and ended in late August. Among the eight varieties, NMCA 10652 had the highest survival percentage at 100% in the 4.1 dS m−1 treatment, followed by ‘Early Jalapeno’, ‘NuMex Sweet’, ‘Pimienta De Chiera’, ‘Santa Fe Grande’, ‘Golden Treasure’, and ‘NuMex Joe E. Parker’. ‘Habanero’ had the lowest survival at 28%. Compared to control, final shoot dry weight of the plants irrigated with saline solution at 4.1 dS m−1 was reduced by 92% in ‘Habanero’, followed by ‘Golden Treasure’ at 80%. For fruit fresh weight in 4.1 dS m−1 vs. control, ‘Habanero’ had the highest reduction at 86%, followed by ‘Golden Treasure’ at 74%, while NMCA 10652 and ‘Santa Fe Grande’ had the least at 26% and 19%, respectively. NMCA 10652, the most tolerant to salinity, had the lowest leaf Na+ accumulation, while ‘Habanero’, the most sensitive to salinity, had the highest Na+ in the leaves. For leaf Cl−, ‘Early Jalapeno’ had the highest, while ‘Habanero’ had the lowest Cl− accumulation in the leaves. Generally, sensitive varieties accumulated more Na+ and/or Cl− in leaves, except for ‘Early Jalapeno’, which was relatively tolerant to salinity but had high Na+ and Cl− accumulation in leaves.  相似文献

‘Picual’ olive cuttings were grown in a greenhouse under saline conditions in 2 L plastic pots containing perlite. Plants were irrigated with a nutrient solution plus 75 mM NaCl and 0, 2.5, 10 or 40 mM CaCl2. Vegetative growth, leaf and root Na+ and Ca2+ concentrations were measured. Na+ toxicity symptoms were observed in plants non-treated with Ca2+. Shoot length was higher in Ca2+ treated plants, although shoot growth was reduced at 40 mM CaCl2, probably due to the high total ion concentration reached in the external solution. Ca2+ supply linearly increased leaf and root Ca2+ concentration and decreased leaf Na+ concentration. However, there were no differences in root Na+ concentration. Results indicate Ca2+ may take part in the Na+ exclusion mechanism, mainly preventing Na+ transport to the shoot, that may be an important ability for survival under saline conditions.  相似文献

Plant production under salinity requires increased capacity for K+ homeostasis. For this purpose, supplementary K2SO4 in the nutrient solution and grafting on a tolerant rootstock were employed in two experiments to test whether grafting, potassium and their interactions can alleviate salinity stress in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.). In Exp-ion, plants were cultivated for 122 days to compare different ionic compositions: EC 9 dS m−1 in ECall (by macro-nutrients) and in ECNaCl (by 64.2 mM NaCl), EC 12 dS m−1 in ECK (ECNaCl + 25.8 mM K+). Exp-K+ was established to compare K+ concentrations of 6, 16 and 36 mM at 150 mM NaCl. In both Experiments, ‘ZS-5’, selected as a salt sensitive cultivar, was either self-grafted or grafted onto the cultivar ‘Edkawi’, reported as salt tolerant. Yield and growth, minerals, gas exchange, soluble sugars, and proline were analyzed. Different ionic treatments affected almost all characteristics considered while differences between rootstocks were rarely observed. No pronounced differences were found in shoot growth, yield and gas exchange between ECall and ECNaCl. ECK did not show any salinity alleviative effects but inhibited even growth compared with the other treatments. In Exp-K+, 16 mM K+ increased plant growth, leaf soluble sugars and proline concentrations. 36 mM K+ did not further reduce upper leaf Na+ although leaf K+ concentration increased significantly. The results indicated that the response of tomato plant to NaCl stress was principally attributed to the osmotic component in Exp-ion, excessive K+ showed no mitigating effect on fruit yield and shoot growth. However, 16 mM K+ in the root environment enhanced the salt adaptive capacity of plants stressed at 150 mM NaCl. The use of the tolerant rootstock resulted in no ameliorative effects, owing to its susceptibility to blossom-end rot, failure in enhancing photosynthesis, and ineffectiveness of restraining the long-distance transport of Na+.  相似文献

A collection of 70 olive samples, originating from diverse areas in central-southern Italy (Abruzzo, Apulia, Calabria, and Umbria) and corresponding to 3 major cultivars denominations (‘Carolea’, ‘Coratina’ and ‘Frantoio’), was genotyped at 10 microsatellite loci. In total, 44 alleles with a mean number of 4.4 alleles per locus were detected. The molecular analysis, allowed the study to show a clear genetic diversity between the three cultivars ‘Carolea’, ‘Coratina’ and ‘Frantoio’ and to state that ‘Carolea’ is a polyclonal cultivar, while ‘Coratina’ and ‘Frantoio’, are probably monoclonal ones. The analysis of intra-varietal polymorphism, through the SSR analysis, proved to be very useful both for varietal identification and for intra-varietal ones. Our work shows that the current designations of olive cultivars fall short of describing the genetic variability among economically important plant material. A thorough investigation of the existing variability will prove of major importance for both management and economic production of olive trees.  相似文献

The use of saline waters is an option for the irrigation of salt tolerant ornamentals as competition for high quality water increases. However, despite the importance of ornamental shrubs in Mediterranean areas, salt tolerance of such species has received little attention. The aims of our investigation were to quantify the growth response and any injury symptom of 12 widely cultivated ornamental shrubs to irrigation with saline water and to investigate any possible relation with the concentration of Na+ and Cl− in the plants. Species were irrigated with different salinities (10, 40, and 70 mM NaCl) for a 120-day period. At the end of salt treatment, plants were sampled and dry biomass recorded; the relative growth rate (RGR) was also calculated. Root and leaf samples from each species were used to evaluate Na+, K+ and Cl− concentrations. Growth rates were significantly reduced in Cotoneaster lacteus, Grevillea juniperina and Pyracantha ‘Harlequin’, which also showed the highest percentage of necrotic leaves. The increasing external NaCl lead to an increase of Na+ and Cl− in roots and leaves of the different species, although less Na+ was accumulated than Cl−: growth reduction well correlated with the concentration of Cl− and/or Na+ in the leaves. The most sensitive species (i.e. C. lacteus, G. juniperina and Pyracantha ‘Harlequin’) had high concentrations of Na+ and/or Cl− in their leaves and also showed a decrease in their leaf K+/Na+ ratios. Even though other species (i.e. Bougainvillea glabra, Ceanothus thyrsiflorus, Leptospermum scoparium, Leucophyllum frutescens and Ruttya fruticosa) demonstrated a high ion concentration in their leaves, they could be considered relatively salt tolerant as there was little growth reduction and few symptoms of injury in the leaves. In some other cases (i.e. Cestrum fasciculatum, Escallonia rubra and Viburnum lucidum) the observed tolerance was related to higher ion concentration in the roots compared to the leaves, probably indicative of a limited transport to the shoots. Only in Eugenia myrtifolia was the absence of symptoms associated with a limited Na+ and Cl− uptake from the rhizosphere.  相似文献

Correlations between macro and micronutrient concentration of olive leaves and those obtained in floral buds at five development stages, were studied in order to evaluate the utility of floral analysis for the diagnosis of the nutritional status of olive orchards. Olive leaves from ‘Arbequina’, ‘Frantoio’, ‘Hojiblanca’, ‘Bella de España’ and ‘Picual’ cultivars were taken during July of 2002 and 2003. Samples of floral buds were collected at five development stages: closed bud (E), petal fall (G), G + 15 days, G + 30 days and pit hardening (H). Results showed a lack of signification of the correlation coefficients between leaf and floral analysis for N, P, K, Ca, Mg, B, Zn, Mn, Fe, Cu and Na in both years of the experiment. The few significant correlations obtained were not repeated in both years. Therefore, the results indicate that floral bud mineral analyses cannot substitute the foliar diagnosis to establish the nutritional status of the olive orchards.  相似文献

To elucidate the fate of photosynthates from different current shoots and their influence on fruit growth and bud differentiation in neighboring spur complex during the period of rapid fruit growth in two late-maturing Japanese pear cultivars: ‘Atago’ and ‘Shinkou’ with contrasting fruit size, 13C labeling of single shoot was done to investigate of C-relations in fruit branches of eight shoot-combinations. The results showed that all of the current shoots investigated (bourse shoots of nonfruiting spur, bourse shoots of fruiting spur, extension shoot, nonfruiting spur, vegetative shoot, and water sprout) could export photosynthates to the neighboring fruit and buds. Water sprouts together with vegetative shoots, bourse shoots, and extension shoots are important source for fruit growth after shoot growth termination during the period of rapid fruit growth in production of late-maturing pears. The carbon transfer rate from the neighboring to the fruit bearing spur is depent (i) on the types of shoot which acts as C source, (ii) on the position of the fruiting spur and (iii) on the source-sink distance. Furthermore, the cultivar difference in carbon partitioning from different current shoot-combinations confirmed that the movement of photosynthates into the fruit was determined by sink strength of the fruit, and ‘Atago’ exhibited a greater relative sink strength of fruit than ‘Shinkou’. In addition, vegetative shoots are very important C sources for fruit growth in ‘Atago’ and the growth pattern of bourse shoot seriously affects C allocated to fruit in ‘Shinkou’.  相似文献

Seasonal changes in leaf photosynthetic rate and partitioning of 13C taken up by leaves were compared in relation to the development of early watercore using susceptible ‘Orin’ and resistant ‘Fuji’ apples (Malus domestica Borkh.). There was no difference between the cultivars in leaf photosynthetic rate from mid-July to mid-October. The extent of watercore in ‘Orin’ increased from mid-July and peaked in late-August, followed by a decrease through mid-October, while no watercore was detected during the experimental period in ‘Fuji’. Fruit fresh weight and soluble solids content (SSC) were higher in ‘Orin’ than ‘Fuji’ during the earlier stages. Leaf dry weight of ‘Orin’ was higher than that of ‘Fuji’ throughout the experimental period. Accumulation of dry matter in the fruit increased in both cultivars and ‘Orin’ kept significantly higher level than ‘Fuji’ from mid-July to mid-October. The amount of 13C distributed to ‘Orin’ fruit at 5 days after labeling was significantly higher than ‘Fuji’ in mid-July just before watercore started to occur. 13C taken up by ‘Orin’ fruit with prevalent watercore was also higher than ‘Fuji’ in late-August but the difference was not significant. In mid-October when early watercore was gradually reducing, 13C recovered by ‘Orin’ fruit decreased and was significantly lower than ‘Fuji’. The difference of partitioning pattern of 13C between the cultivars was associated with the susceptibility to early watercore as well as the changes in fruit growth and SSC. The seasonal changes in the amount of 13C distributed to ‘Orin’ fruit were also related to the fluctuations in watercore severity. The results suggest that active phloem transport might be the cause of early watercore in our previous work, which might be induced by the increased partitioning of assimilates to the fruit during summer in susceptible ‘Orin’ compared to resistant ‘Fuji’ and not by the higher potential of leaf photosynthesis.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of low molecular mass antioxidants and NaCl salinity on growth, ionic balance, proline, and water contents of ‘Zard’ olive trees under controlled greenhouse conditions. The experiment was carried out by spraying 2 mM of ascorbic acid (Asc) and 3 mM of reduced glutathione (GSH) on the plants that were treated with two salinity levels (0 and 100 mM NaCl) on their root medium. Plant growth parameters (leaf fresh weight, leaf dry weight, leaf number, total fresh weight, and total dry weight) were significantly improved by Asc compared with growth parameters in GSH and control plants. Higher concentrations of Na+ and Cl– were observed in salt-stressed plants, while Na+ and Cl– concentrations were decreased in the olive leaves that were sprayed with Asc. Salinity in the root zone caused a considerable decline in both K+ concentration and K/Na ratio. K+ concentration and K/Na ratio were significantly increased by application of Asc on plant leaves. Salinity caused an increase in electrolyte leakage (EL) compared with the control plants. Lowest EL and tissue water content (TWC) was obtained in Asc-sprayed plants, whereas TWC was increased in salt-stressed plants. Plants were subjected to salt stress and showed a higher relative water content (RWC) than the control plants. Salt stress induced proline accumulation in olive leaves. In conclusion, exogenous application of Asc is recommended to improve tolerance of olive plants under saline conditions.  相似文献

Increased need for salinity tolerant turfgrasses continues due to increased use of saline water for lawn irrigation and turfgrass establishment on highly saline soil in arid and seashore regions. Turfgrasses growing on saline soil suffer from long-term salinity stress, so this experiment was conducted to study the salinity tolerance, growth, and physiological responses of four warm season turfgrasses [including ‘Diamond’ zoysiagrass (Zoysia matrella (L.) Merr.), ‘Z080’ zoysiagrass (Z. japonica Steud.), ‘C291’ bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers), and ‘Adalayd’ seashore paspalum (Paspalum vaginatum Sw.)] to 9 months of salinity stress. Seven salinity levels of irrigation water (0, 90, 180, 360, 540, 720, and 900 mM NaCl) were applied to turfgrasses grown in plastic tubes in a glass room. The salinity tolerance decreased in the following order according to percent green leaf canopy area after 9 months of salinity treatments: ‘Diamond’ > ‘Adalayd’ > ‘C291’ > ‘Z080’. Leaf weight, leaf length, canopy height, shoot density were significantly affected by salinity treatments for all turfgrasses. However, leaf width and/or leaf number per shoot were not affected by salinity in all turfgrasses except ‘Diamond’. Leaf and/or root water contents were also little affected. As salinity increased, leaf and root Na+ concentrations and Na+/K+ rates increased significantly and K+ concentrations decreased significantly except that of ‘Adalayd’ leaf. ‘Diamond’ and ‘Z080’ could reduce Na+ accumulation in the leaves by salt secretion from salt glands, while ‘Adalayd’ could exclude Na+ from the leaves and accumulate K+ in the leaves. ‘C291’ exhibited both ion regulation mechanisms, but to much less extent. Different growth responses and ion regulation means of four turfgrasses reflected different salinity tolerance mechanisms.  相似文献

The effects of NaCl stress on plant growth, gas-exchange, activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), rate of lipid peroxidation, and accumulation of Na+ ion and sugar were investigated in leaves and fruits of pepper plants (Capsicum annuum L.). Especially, the gene expression of l-galactono-1,4-lactone dehydrogenase (GalLDH), which is the last enzyme of ascorbic acid (AsA) biosynthesis, and the relationships between AsA level and Na+ concentration in plant tissue were investigated with increasing salinity. Plants were treated with three treatments: the control (0 mM NaCl) and two salinity levels (50 and 100 mM NaCl) for 21 days under greenhouse conditions. Plant growth was markedly restricted due to the reduction of photosynthetic rate and the increase of Na+ accumulation in leaves with the increasing intensity of NaCl stress. Salinity had more effect on fruit growth comparing to leaf growth, suggesting that fruits could be more sensitive to salinity than leaves. In comparison with the control, salt stress significantly increased lipid peroxidation (as measured as malondialdehyde content) but decreased SOD activity in both fruits and leaves although the effect was larger in fruits; and the rate of the decrease in SOD activity was greater than that of the increase in lipid peroxidation. The AsA concentration transiently increased first 7 days but it slightly decreased from the initial level in the end of treatment day 21. The change in GalLDH gene expression was similar to AsA concentration. The accumulation of Na+, the reduction of AsA level at severe salinity stress were greater in fruits than in leaves; and AsA level had a negative relationship with Na+ concentration in both leaves and fruits. These results suggest that the difference in salt sensitivity between fruits and leaves in pepper plants can be related to the difference in inhibition of AsA synthesis, which in turn is probably due to the toxicity of extreme accumulation of Na+.  相似文献

Effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) alone or in combination with bacterial consortium (AMF+BC) inoculation prior to induced salinity (NaCl @ 150 or 250 mM) were studied on root growth; plant biomass; leaf area; Na+ and K+ contents; leaf water potential (Ψw); osmotic potential (Ψπ); photosynthesis rate (Pn); and contents of chlorophyll, phytohormones, and polyamines in the grape rootstock ‘Dogridge’, popular among Indian vine growers. AMF inoculation in the NaCl untreated rootstocks plants increased root growth, root and shoot biomass, and leaf area and improved leaf Ψw, Ψπ, Pn, and chlorophyll content, and also countered the stress-induced decline in the NaCl treated plants. The abscisic acid (ABA), cytokinins, and polyamine-spermidine and spermine contents in the leaves of NaCl untreated or treated were significantly increased by the AMF inoculation. Among the treatments, AMF with BC was relatively more effective than AMF alone with respect to changes in above morpho-physiological characters. The results depicted that AMF (AMF alone or AMF+BC) inoculation significantly improved salinity tolerance of grape rootstock and tolerance is induced by improvements in plant water balance, K+:Na+ ratio, and Pn, besides distinct accumulations in ABA and polyamines-spermine and spermidine. The above findings have potential in suggesting the AMF usefulness in improving the efficacy of ‘Dogridge’ rootstock in grape cultivation under salt affected soils.  相似文献

SUMMARY

Response to increased salinity was compared in whole plants and calli from leaf, stem and root of Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cv. P-73, Lycopersicon pennellii (Correll) D'Arcy ac PE-47 and their interspecific hybrid. Three NaCl treatments were applied (0, 70 and 140 raM) for 28 d. In both calli and whole plants, L. pennellii was more salt-tolerant than the cultivated species and the hybrid according to the growth responses, although different degrees of salt tolerance were generally found between plants and calli. The Na+ and CI" accumulations with salinity were higher in L. pennellii than in L. esculentum at both levels oforganization. The interspecific hybrid showed an accumulation ability for Na+ and CI" intermediate to its parents in the shoot of the whole plants and similar to L. pennellii in the callus tissues. Either no decrease or a small decrease of K+ concentrations with salinity were found in both whole plants and callus tissues of L. esculentum. However, K+ concentrations decreased in the organs and calli of L. pennellii and the hybrid with increasing salinity. Only at the whole plant level did L. pennellii have a Na7K+ ratio higher than L. esculentum, showing the hybrid to have values between those of its parents in the shoot.  相似文献

In order to study the effect of brassinosteroids on the amelioration of the inhibitory effect of salinity on strawberry plants, a short-term experiment was conducted in greenhouse to test different concentrations of 24-epibrassinolide (24-EBL) (0.0, 0.5, and 1 μM) by foliar application on some agro-physiological properties, such as shoot dry weight, and root dry weight, stomatal conductance (SC), leaf relative water content (LRWC), leaf chlorophyll reading values (LCRV) and membrane permeability (MP) of strawberry ‘Fern’ and ‘A6’ cultivars irrigated with salt water (35 mM NaCl). 24-EBL solutions were applied twice during late afternoon hours with 7 d intervals using a hand-held sprayer. Plant shoot dry weight, root dry weight, SC, LRWC and LCRV were reduced by 29–33%, 45–15%, 71–55%, 11–13%, and 12–13% for ‘A6’ and ‘Fern’ cultivars at 35 mM (without 24-EBL applied), respectively, as compared to the nonsaline treatment, but MP increased 40% and 12%. An exogenous supply of 24-EBL was found to be successful in alleviating of the inhibitory effects of salt stress on plant growth parameters and nutrient contents. 24-EBL (1 μM) application under saline condition significantly increased shoot and root dry matter, SC, LRWC and LCRV of plants, and alleviation effects of 1 μM 24-EBL application was 20%, 15%, 122%, 5.8%, and 10.9% for ‘A6’ and 47%, 8.0%, 83%, 33.3% and 6.0% for ‘Fern’ cultivars, respectively. Macro-micro element content of plant leaf and root increased with increase 24-EBL except for Na under salinity stress. These results support the view that supplementary 24-EBL application can overcome the effects of salinity stress on plant growth and growth parameter under saline conditions.  相似文献

Molecular characterization using RAPD analysis was carried out in eight cut flowers and two pot plant cultivars of chrysanthemum. Three of them (‘Refocus’, ‘Red Reagan’, and ‘Sheena Select’) were established in vitro and the occurrence of somaclonal variation was studied using the same molecular technique. Two induction media (MS + 0.1 mg l−1 NAA + 0.1 mg l−1 BA, and MS + 2.0 mg l−1 IAA + 0.5 mg l−1 Kinetin), and two proliferation media (MS + 0.1 mg l−1 NAA + 0.2 mg l−1 BA, and MS + 4.0 mg l−1 IAA + 2.0 mg l−1 Kinetin) were employed in order to evaluate the effect of the medium composition in the shoots’ stability. Likewise, the effect of the culture age was considered in assessing genetic stability. Monthly subcultures were carried out, identifying the origin and history of the shoots, throughout a nine-month proliferation period followed by acclimatization. Molecular markers were obtained in every subculture cycle and from the acclimatized plants. Only one shoot from the 7th subculture of the cultivar ‘Refocus’ showed a different band pattern. The use of RAPD for chrysanthemum cultivar characterization and somaclonal variation detection is discussed.  相似文献

Pre-chilled potted plants of Paeonia ‘Coral Sunset’, ‘Monsieur Jules Elie’, ‘Sarah Bernhardt’, and ‘Karl Rosenfeld’ were placed in a range of controlled temperature regimes to ascertain the effect of temperature on the timing of shoot emergence and floral development. For all cultivars, warmer temperatures up to 25 °C lead to more rapid shoot emergence and flower development. Linear temperature responses adequately described the rate of development from shoot emergence to flower bud appearance, and from bud appearance to flower opening, but a curvilinear response was required to describe the time taken for shoots to emerge. There were significant differences between cultivars in the number of heat units required for shoot emergence, with the shoots of the slowest-developing cultivar, ‘Monsieur Jules Elie’, taking 50% longer to emerge than those of the most rapid, ‘Coral Sunset’. No significant differences were found among cultivars in the time taken from shoot emergence to flower opening, although the ‘split’ stage (when the bud opens sufficiently for petal colour to be observed) was slightly earlier in ‘Karl Rosenfeld’.  相似文献

Fruit tree growth habit and vigour are important traits for orchard management and production, yet are difficult to select for in breeding programs because the parameters for their evaluation are complex, and their expression often requires sufficient plant size and development, entailing valuable time. Thus, in olive (Olea europaea L.) breeding, as for other fruit crops, it is critical to define growth habit and vigour parameters with selection potential, and to determine the earliest age at which they can be measured. Furthermore seedling growth habit traits are important in themselves, particularly in their relation to juvenile period length and management. To explore these issues we evaluated a series of new and standard growth habit parameters during the first year of growth in a population of unpruned olive seedlings originating from six different crosses. The influence of plant age on growth habit traits was determined by comparing measurements at two or three different times. Both parent genotype and plant age significantly affected the vigour and growth habit of the olive seedlings, and 9 months was the most appropriate age for evaluating seedling growth parameters. ‘Picual’, ‘Arbosana’ and ‘Sikitita’ were shown to be promising cultivars for use as genitors, because of their tendency to produce offspring with desirable growth habit traits such as high vigour, weeping habit and low lateral shoot number. From among the 17 parameters studied, based on parent influence and the absence of correlation among parameters, five were identified which best described olive seedling growth habit: Primary Shoot Top Diameter, Primary Shoot Conicity, Secondary Shoot Number, Secondary Shoot Insertion Angle and Longest Secondary Shoot Internode Length.  相似文献

Eleven cultivars of Chrysanthemum × grandiflorum (Ramat.) Kitam.: ‘Richmond’ and its 10 radiomutants, representing the Lady group, were propagated in vitro with shoot tips and leaves as explants. The aim of this study was to investigate if the explant type used for micropropagation affects the genotype and phenotype of chrysanthemums. Plants grown from shoot tips and adventitious buds formed on leaves were rooted in vitro, acclimatized and cultivated in glasshouse up to full-flowering. The colour and shape of inflorescences of plants obtained from two different explant types were compared within the cultivars. All plants derived from shoot-tip explants showed the inflorescence colour and shape typical for the cultivars. Inflorescence colour of plants derived from adventitious buds were true-to-type in four cultivars: ‘Richmond’, ‘Lady Amber’, ‘Lady White’ and ‘Lady Yellow’. All plants of ‘Lady Apricot’ (originally: golden beet) and ‘Lady Salmon’ (salmon) propagated from adventitious buds technique showed altered inflorescence colour (respectively: purple gold; pink and white). ‘Lady Bronze’ (originally: reddish brown), ‘Lady Orange’ (orange brown) and ‘Lady Rosy’ (purple gold) propagated with adventitious buds had both typical and changed inflorescence colours (respectively: yellow; yellow and red; reddish pink). ‘Lady Vitroflora’ showed altered number of ligulate florets grown into tubes in inflorescence when propagated with shoot tips and leaves as explants. Those changes might be an effect of either chimeral structure or somaclonal variation of the plants investigated. The variation appears only if non-meristematical explants were used. The adventitious buds technique might be useful in chrysanthemum breeding as a source of a new variability.  相似文献
