In recent years, apoplast had been revealed as a powerful signal source that could determine the fate of cell development. Some novel polypeptide molecules in the apoplast, the signal molecules induced by the pathogenic infection or wound, and other extracellular signal molecules, like cAMP, calmodulin, part components of extracellular matrix (ECM), all of them were found to be present in the apoplast. More important, it is also proved that they play a very important role for intercellular communication, interaction between cells and determination of the cell fate during development.展开更多

Pall. and Kalidium folium (Pall.) Moq.). K. folium and S. salsa had a NaCl content of 32.1% and 29.8%, respectively, on a dry weight basis. X-ray microanalysis of the Na+ in the vacuole, apoplasts and cytoplasm of the two plants indicated a ratio of 7.3:5.6:1.0 in K. folium and 7.3:6.6:1.0 in S. salsa. These data show that K. folium and S. salsa both have a high Na+ and Cl- accumulating capacity, which is related to high activity of tonoplast H+-ATPase and H+-PPase.展开更多

The effects of ammonium (NH4+-N) and nitrate (NO3- - N) were examined on Fe fractions and FeCN (ferricyanide) reductase activity in intact root tips (0-3 cm) of young maize (Zea mays L. cv.

Lenz) in solution culture by using short-term experiment under controlled Fe deficiency conditions (containing high HCO3- concentration in pre-culture solution). The results showed that Fe(Ⅱ) concentrations in root tip apoplast of maize were only 20-40 nmol/g FW which accounted for 7%-13% of total Fe. Most of Fe in root tips existed as Fe(Ⅲ) compounds. Imposition of the roots to NH4+ - N or NO3- - N for 60 min led to an increase of Fe(Ⅱ) in root tip apoplast. NH4+ - N led to an increased concentration of Fe(Ⅱ) and exchangeable Fe (Fe(Ⅱ) and Fe (Ⅲ)) in root tips, while NO3- - N increased FeCN reductase activity. The relationship between pH and Fe fractions, FeCN reductase activity was also discussed.展开更多
