    Notes: Abstract  Chlorophyll a fluorescence parameters showing the instantaneous performance and carbon-isotope ratios reflecting long-term behaviour of leaves were determined for a large number of mistletoe/host-pairs in the cerrado belt of Brazil. Study sites were a very exposed rupestrian field, a semi-exposed savanna and a highly shaded gallery forest. The major question asked was if photosynthetic capacity of mistletoe leaves differed from that of the leaves of their respective hosts. It is shown that except for the very exposed rupestrian field site, photosynthetic capacity appeared to be similar in mistletoes and host leaves. The superior behaviour of host leaves in the rupestrian field was due to particularly expressed sun-plant characteristics of the host. However, mistletoes always had higher average stomatal conductances, lower leaf temperatures at similar or even higher irradiance and higher intercellular CO2-partial pressures than hosts. Photosynthetic performance of mistletoe leaves was independent of whether a given mistletoe species parasitized aluminium-accumulating or non-accumulating host species in the cerrados with their aluminium-rich soils.

    Lipids and lipolytic enzymes in the trunkwood of Robinia pseudoacacia L . during heartwood formation (1996)

    Keywords: Key words Acylesterhydrolase ; Heartwood formation ; Lipase ; Robinia pseudoacacia L. ; Phospholipases
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology , Agriculture, Forestry, Horticulture, Fishery, Domestic Science, Nutrition
    Notes: Abstract  The radial profile of lipase and phospholipase activities was determined in the trunkwood of Robinia pseudoacacia L. The trees were felled in November at the time of heartwood formation and alterations in the enzymatic activities were investigated across the sapwood and heartwood. Methods employed include gaschromatographic, colorimetric and enzymatic assays. On a dry weight basis, the hydrolysis of the artificial substrate p-nitrophenylpalmitate shows a maximum activity in growth ring 4; however, the assay has proved not to be specific for lipase. In contrast, lipase analyses (triacylglycerol acylhydrolase; E.C. 3.1.1.3) with an authentic substrate show activity peaks in growth rings 1 and 4. With protein as a reference the highest activity is found in growth ring 5. A similar tendency is observed for phospholipase A1 (E.C. 3.1.1.32) and phospholipase A2 (E.C. 3.1.1.4). Phospholipase C (E.C. 3.1.4.3) activity decreases towards the sapwood-heartwood boundary; negligible traces of activity are detected in the heartwood, whereas, based on the protein content, growth ring 4 yields maximal activity. Phospholipase D (3.1.4.4) exhibits the same radial pattern with regard to protein content as a reference. On a dry weight basis there is a significant increase within the sapwood area, while in the heartwood the activity drastically decreases. The enzyme activities are discussed in relation to degradative processes within the plasma membranes and the hydrolysis of reserve lipids during heartwood formation.

    Pyridine nucleotide levels and activities of dehydrogenases in cambial derivatives of Robinia pseudoacacia L . (1996)

    Notes: Abstract  Despite the importance of the vascular cambial differentiation, little is known about its regulation. In order to address this problem we attempted to biochemically characterize differentiating xylem and phloem elements during the early stages of development. By applying techniques of quantitative histochemistry we show that the total pool size of pyridine nucleotides is similar in the phloem (PD) and xylem (XD) oriented derivatives of the cambial zone of trees of Robinia pseudoacacia L. Within the PD zone, the amount of NAD + NADH exceeded that of NADP + NADPH [around 600 versus 200 pmol (mg dry weight)–1], possibly indicative of a preponderance of catabolic pathways (ratio of NADH : NAD about 1). In contrast, the NADP(H) system dominated in the XD zone. This coincided with a high activity of NAD kinase. In addition, the extractable activities of the key enzymes of the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, were greatly increased. At a ratio of NADPH : NADP of approximately 1, this could be indicative of increased rates of reductive biosyntheses, and could thus well be involved in early steps of the formation of phenols and lignin monomers. Taken together, this first approach clearly shows that phloem-oriented and xylem-oriented cambial descendents exhibit distinct differences in their biochemical patterns even in early stages of differentiation.

    Notes: Abstract  The radial distribution of membrane and storage lipids was determined in the trunkwood of Robinia pseudoacacia L. The trees were felled in November at the time of heartwood formation and fluctuations in the amount and composition of phospholipids, free sterols, steryl esters, di- and triacylglycerols, and free fatty acids were investigated across the sapwood-heartwood boundary. The individual compounds were identified and quantified by thin layer chromatography, enzymatic and colorimetric assays, and by capillary gas chromatography. Phospholipids show a significant decrease towards the boundary area, and in the heartwood only trace amounts can be detected. The same pattern is observed for free sterols in the sapwood; in the heartwood, however, they reach maximum values with increasing depth of the trunk. Steryl esters exhibit a complementary behaviour by accumulating at the periphery of the heartwood. No concentration changes are found in the total amounts of diacylglycerols and free fatty acids. In contrast, the triacylglycerol concentration declines steadily across the trunk. With regard to qualitative composition, free fatty acids and the fatty acid moieties of the esterified constituents vary in their chain length from 14 to 24 carbon atoms and have up to three double bonds. A radial gradient in the ratio saturated/unsaturated fatty acids can be observed: except for the phospholipid fraction the relative amounts of unsaturated fatty acids increase in centripetal direction. Seven phospholipids were identified: phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, diphosphatidylglycerol, and phosphatidic acid, which constitutes the major proportion. In the sterol group, sitosterol is the most abundant component. The composition of the esterified sterols remains constant across the trunk cross-section, whereas the relative frequencies of individual free sterols change markedly.
