    Notes: : Fruit ripening is closely associated with compositional and structural changes which can occur before or after harvesting. In papaya fruit, the period of sugar synthesis and accumulation remains poorly understood. The correlation between soluble sugar content and sweetness during papaya ripening was investigated in this study. Soluble sugars accumulated mainly when the papaya fruit was still attached to the plant. After harvest, however, there was still sucrose synthesis, and the sucrose-phosphate synthase activity was highly correlated to the sucrose content, indicating the importance of this enzyme in the process. Sensory analysis showed that there was a dissociation between sugar content and sweet sensory perception, while the pulp softening showed high correlation with the sweetness process, probably due to the easier release of cellular contents in the fully ripened tissue.

    High genetic diversity of Spanish common wheats as judged from gliadin alleles (2000)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Plant breeding 119 (2000), S. 0

    Notes: Gliadin alleles were identified in 100 common wheat cultivars registered and/or grown in Spain during the last 40 years. A very high level of genetic polymorphism was found: in total, 103 allelic variants including one null-allele were found at the six major Gli loci in the Spanish wheats studied. An average genetic diversity for these six loci was found to be higher (H=0.844) than in any group of wheat cultivars studied previously. Spanish wheats bred in Spain demonstrated even higher genetic diversity (H=0.868), probably because of the occurrence in this group of some landraces (local varieties) assumed to be strongly differentiated to fit local environments. The high level of genetic diversity of wheats grown in Spain was maintained by the introduction of distantly related wheat germplasm from different sources, especially from Italy and CIMMYT. A slight decrease of genetic diversity in recently registered cultivars might be caused by the excessive introduction of French wheats. Thirteen new alleles found in Spanish wheats were catalogued, including Gli-D2w which encodes the first Gli-D2-controlledγ-gliadin to be found.

    Notes: Cadmium is a toxic metal that produces disturbances in plant antioxidant defences giving rise to oxidative stress. The effect of this metal on H2O2 and O2·− production was studied in leaves from pea plants growth for 2 weeks with 50 µm Cd, by histochemistry with diaminobenzidine (DAB) and nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT), respectively. The subcellular localization of these reactive oxygen species (ROS) was studied by cytochemistry with CeCl3 and Mn/DAB staining for H2O2 and O2·−, respectively, followed by electron microscopy observation. In leaves from pea plants grown with 50 µm CdCl2 a rise of six times in the H2O2 content took place in comparison with control plants, and the accumulation of H2O2 was observed mainly in the plasma membrane of transfer, mesophyll and epidermal cells, as well as in the tonoplast of bundle sheath cells. In mesophyll cells a small accumulation of H2O2 was observed in mitochondria and peroxisomes. Experiments with inhibitors suggested that the main source of H2O2 could be a NADPH oxidase. The subcellular localization of O2·− production was demonstrated in the tonoplast of bundle sheath cells, and plasma membrane from mesophyll cells. The Cd-induced production of the ROS, H2O2 and O2·−, could be attributed to the phytotoxic effect of Cd, but lower levels of ROS could function as signal molecules in the induction of defence genes against Cd toxicity. Treatment of leaves from Cd-grown plants with different effectors and inhibitors showed that ROS production was regulated by different processes involving protein phosphatases, Ca2+ channels, and cGMP.

    Cadmium causes the oxidative modification of proteins in pea plants (2002)

    Notes: In pea (Pisum sativum L.) leaves from plants grown in the presence of 50 µm CdCl2 the oxidative production of carbonyl groups in proteins, the rate of protein degradation and the proteolytic activity were investigated. In leaf extracts the content of carbonyl groups measured by derivatization with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH), was two-fold higher in plants treated with Cd than in control plants. The identification of oxidized proteins was carried out by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of proteins derivatized with DNPH and immunochemical detection with an antibody against DNPH. The intensity of the reactive bands was higher in plants exposed to Cd than in controls. By using different antibodies some of the oxidized proteins were identified as Rubisco, glutathione reductase, manganese superoxide dismutase, and catalase. The incubation of leaf crude extracts with increasing H2O2 concentrations showed a progressive enhancement in carbonyl content and the pattern of oxidized proteins was similar to that found in Cd-treated plants. Oxidized proteins were more efficiently degraded, and the proteolytic activity increased 20% due to the metal treatment. In peroxisomes purified from pea leaves a rise in the carbonyl content similar to that obtained in crude extracts from Cd-treated plants was observed, but the functionality of the peroxisomal membrane was not apparently affected by Cd. Results obtained demonstrate the participation of both oxidative stress, probably mediated by H2O2, and proteolytic degradation in the mechanism of Cd toxicity in leaves of pea plants, and they appear to be involved in the Cd-induced senescence previously reported in these plants.

    Reactive oxygen species-mediated enzymatic systems involved in the oxidative action of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2004)

    Notes: 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) is an analogue compound to the plant hormone indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), which is used either as a growth-promoting substance or as a herbicide, depending on its concentration. In this work, the effect of 2,4-D on the growth and ROS metabolism of pea (Pisum sativum L.) leaves is reported. The herbicide considerably reduced the plant growth and negatively influenced several physiological parameters in a dose-dependent manner. At structural level, damage of the mesophyll cells and the enlargement and dilation of thylakoids were observed in 2,4-D-treated plants. 2,4-D notably affected xanthine oxidase and superoxide dismutase activities, as well as the activity and transcript levels of the ascorbate–glutathione cycle enzymes, ascorbate peroxidase, monodehydroascorbate reductase, and glutathione reductase. Furthermore, in herbicide-treated plants, an increase in the H2O2 production, levels of lipid peroxidation, endopeptidase activity and oxidatively modified proteins took place. Results obtained showed that an overproduction of superoxide radicals (O2−) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) could take place in plants treated with 2,4-D, thus contributing to the generation of oxidative stress, with the concomitant degradation of proteins. A model of the role of ROS-mediated enzymatic systems in the oxidative mode of action of 2,4-D and other auxinic herbicides is proposed.

    Notes: Abstract Core BAP96-CP, sampled from the deepest part of the Bay of La Paz, Gulf of California, has been analysed sedimentologically taking into account regional climate and oceanography. Laminated sediments at the bottom of the bay are essentially not bioturbated by benthic fauna. A subanoxic condition (O2 〈 0·2 mL L−1) inhibits the proliferation of benthic fauna. Within the bay, the relative abundances of terrigenous and biogenic inputs change periodically. The terrigenous input is greater than the biogenic input and apparently experiences larger fluctuations. The terrigenous input dominates in dark laminae, whereas the biogenic input mostly occurs in light laminae. Thus, it is assumed that, down the core, the alternation of dark and light laminae represents cycles in the extent of dilution of the biogenic input by terrigenous input. The terrigenous input into the Bay of La Paz is mostly regulated by pluvial runoff. Thus, its temporal fluctuation follows the periods shown by the regional pluvial regime, particularly the 11·2 year period. This is equal to the frequency of sunspot cycles.

    Notes: A survey was conducted on the total mercury content of approximately 40 foods, including dairy, poultry, meat and fishery products, cereals, fruits and vegetables, bread and sugar, primarily produced in Michigan. Wet acid digestion and atomic absorption photometry were used in the analyses. The mercury content of most products ranged from less than 0.01 to 0.03 ppm. Fish carried generally higher concentrations of mercury, but no sample exceeded the FDA safety guideline of 0.5 ppm.

    Notes: HLA class I and II antigen expression was studied in 19 cases of primary infiltrating ductal carcinoma of the breast. An indirect immunofluorescence technique was used on cryostat sections with monoclonal antibodies directed against HLA class I and II monomorphic determinants. Of the 19 cases studied, 17 were positive for class I antigen expression and two were negative. Class I HLA antigen expression was found to be clearly heterogeneous: in ten of these tumours more than 75% of the cells were class I positive; in two the percentage was decreased to between 50% and 75%; in five tumours it was less than 50%. With respect to class II HLA antigen expression, eight breast tumours were totally negative while two were strongly positive. (50-75%) and the nine remaining cases were less than 25% positive.In addition, radioassay techniques were employed to determine the presence of oestrogen and progestagen receptors. The distribution of these receptors was not correlated with HLA class I or II antigen expression, nor could any relationship be demonstrated between the degree of histological differentiation of the tumours and their invasiveness.
