    Notes: Abstract Polypeptide material has been immunoprecipitated by antivicilin antibodies from translation products of polyribosomes and poly(A)-rich RNA isolated from developing seeds of Pisum sativum in the wheat germ and reticulocyte lysate cell-free synthesis systems. Analysis of this material by SDS-PAGE shows it to consist of three bands, of molecular weights 70,000, 50,000 and 47,000. The in vitro vicilin polypeptides of 70,000 and 50,000 mol. wt. have been shown to be very similar to the 70,000 and 50,000 mol. wt. subunits of vicilin by specific immunoprecipitation, and behaviour on treatment with cyanogen bromide and trypsin. The 50,000 mol. wt. in vitro vicilin polypeptide contains no significant extra sequence compared to the 50,000 mol. wt. vicilin subunit. The 47,000 mol. wt. in vitro vicilin polypeptide has no corresponding subunit in vicilin from mature seeds, but a 47,000 mol. wt. subunit is present in vicilin isolated from developing seeds. Comparison of translation products from polysomes isolated from seeds at middle and late stages of development shows that synthesis of the 50,000 and 47,000 mol. wt., but not 70,000 mol. wt. polypeptides is very much reduced at late stages of development. These results are discussed with reference to the nature of the vicilin fraction.

    Notes: Abstract When a d.c. potential of 9.0 V was applied to the stem of intact pea seedlings (Pisum sativum L. cv. Meteor and cv. Alderman) via 10 mM KCl-soaked filter paper electrodes placed ca. 50 mm apart the stem passed a steady current of 15–20 μA (resistance ca. 100 kΩ cm-1). The basipetal transport of [1-14C]IAA applied to the apical bud was completely inhibited over the portion of the stem through which current flowed and 14C-labelled compounds accumulated in the vicinity of the upper electrode. The inhibition of transport was independent of the polarity of the applied potential. The basipetal transport of IAA in the stem above the electrode was not affected. Labelled auxin accumulated at the upper electrode both as unchanged IAA and as a compound tentatively identified as indol-3yl-acetyl aspartic acid (IAAsp). These compounds were only slowly remobilised when the current was interrupted. However, the ability of the transport system to move freshly-applied IAA was rapidly and fully restored when the potential was removed. No injury to the plant was detected after maintaining a current flow for up to 72 h. No leakage of 14C-labelled compounds into the KCl solution bathing the electrodes was detected.

    Notes: Abstract Evidence is presented to show that legumin, the major storage protein in Pisum, is synthesised in vitro by the wheat germ and reticulocyte lysate systems, from polyribosomes and mRNA isolated from developing pea seeds. While legumin isolated from mature pea seeds consists of 40,000 and 20,000 MW subunits, the in vitro legumin is synthesised as a 60,000 MW precursor consisting of covalently linked 40,000 and 20,000 MW subunits. The implications of these findings are discussed in relationship to studies with other systems.

    Notes: Abstract The putative auxin-transporting cells of the intact herbaceous dicotyledon are the young, differentiating vascular elements. The length of these cells was found to be considerably greater in dwarf (Meteor) than in tall (Alderman) varieties ofPisum sativum L., and to be greater in etiolated than in light-grown plants ofP. sativum cv Meteor andPhaseolus vulgaris L. cv Mexican Black. Under given light conditions during transport these large differences in cell length did not influence the shapes of the transport profiles or the velocity of transport of14C-labelled indol-3yl-acetic acid (IAA) applied to the apical bud. However, in both etiolated and light-grown bean and dwarf pea plants the velocity of transport in darkness was ca. 25% lower than that in light. Under the same conditions of transport velocities in bean were about twice those observed in the dwarf pea. Exposure to light during transport increased the rate of export of14C from the labelled shoot apex in green dwarf pea plants but not in etiolated plants. The light conditions to which the plants were exposed during growth and transport had little effect on the rates of uptake of IAA from the applied solutions. The results indicate that the velocity of auxin transport is independent of the frequency of cell-to-cell interfaces along the transport pathway and it is suggested that in intact plants auxin transport is entirely symplastic.

    Notes: Abstract A highly sensitive immunoassay has been used for the detection of a major storage protein, legumin, in embryos of Pisum sativum L.; with this technique nanogram quantities could be measured. In the two varieties tested, legumin could be detected in embryos in vivo, when they had attained a fresh weight of 2·10-3 g and 3·10-3 g, respectively. Contrary to earlier claims, embryos cultured in vitro were shown to be capable of initiating legumin synthesis. This capacity to initiate legumin synthesis was confirmed by two-dimensional isoelectric focusing-electrophoresis and fluorography; embryos harvested before initiation of legumin synthesis and cultured in radioactive medium were shown to have synthesized legumin subunits. The amounts of legumin and total protein synthesized per unit fresh weight were consistently greater in vitro than in equivalent embryos grown in vivo.

    Notes: Abstract Epidermis is easily detached from both adaxial and abaxial surfaces of leaf four of the Argenteum mutant of Pisum sativum L. The isolated epidermis has stomata with large, easily-measured pores. Hairs and glands are absent. The density of stomata is high and contamination by mesophyll cells is low. In the light and in CO2-free air, stomata in isolated adaxial epidermis of Argenteum mutant opened maximally after 4 h incubation at 25°C. The response of stomata to light was dependent on the concentration of KCl in the incubation medium and was maximal at 50 mol m-3 KCl. Stomata did not respond to exogenous kinetin, but apertures were reduced by incubation of epidermis on solutions containing between 10-5 and 10-1 mol m-3 abscisic acid (ABA). The responses of stomata of Argenteum mutant to light, exogenous KCl, ABA and kinetin were comparable with those described previously for stomata in isolated epidermis of Commelina communis. A method for preparing viable protoplasts of guard cells from isolated epidermis of Argenteum mutant is described. The response of guard cell protoplasts to light, exogenous KCl, ABA and kinetin were similar to those of stomata in isolated epidermis except that the increase in volume of the protoplasts in response to light was maximal at a lower concentration of KCl (10 mol m-3) and that protoplasts responded more rapidly to light than stomata in isolated epidermis. The protoplasts did not respond to exogenous kinetin, but when incubated for 1 h in the light and in CO2-free air on a solution containing 10-3 mol m-3 ABA, they decreased in volume by 30%. The advantages of using epidermis from Argenteum mutant for experiments on stomatal movements are discussed.

    Notes: Summary Direct injection of acetylene into soil around plant roots, followed by determination of ethylene/acetylene ratios in the soil atmosphere has been tested as a rapid, non-destructive method of estimating acetylene reducing activity. In pots of artificial media as well as in field soil, the ratios determined within 10 min. after injection were significantly correlated with the rates of acetylenedependent ethylene production in detached roots. The method may be useful in preliminary screening of large numbers of plant-bacteria combinations.
