Leaves, especially the flag leaves, as CHA initial recipients play a decisive role in inducing male sterility. To investigate effects of different treatment times of CHA-SQ-1 used, morphological, biochemical and physiological responses of wheat flag leaves were detected in thistudy. CHA induced programmed cell death （PCD） as shown in terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end-labelling （TUNEL） and DNA laddering analysis. In the early phase, CHA-SQ-1 trig- gered organelle changes arid PCD in wheat leaves accompanied by excess production of reactive oxygen species （O2- and H202） and down-regulation of the activities of superoxide dismutase （SOD）, catalase （CAT） and guaiacol peroxidase （POD）. Meanwhile, leaf cell DNAs showed ladder-like patterns on agarose gel, indicating that CHA-SQ-1 led to the activation of the responsible endonuclease. The oxidative stress assays showed that lipid peroxidation was strongly activated and photosynthesis was obviously inhibited in SQ-l-induced leaves. However, CHA contents in wheat leaves gradually reduced along with the time CHA-SQ-1 applied. Young flags returned to an oxidative/antioxidative balance and ultimately developed into mature green leaves. These results provide explanation of the relations between PCD and anther abortion and practical application of CHA for hybrid breeding.展开更多
文摘[目的]筛选可用于苦瓜化学杀雄的化学杀雄剂。[方法]以苦瓜品种"春丽"为材料,利用不同浓度梯度乙烯利、苯磺隆、甲磺隆、咔嘧磺隆溶液在苦瓜现蕾时进行叶面喷施处理,每隔10 d处理一次,并对植株的长势及花粉活力进行观察和测定。[结果]苯磺隆对苦瓜具有杀雄作用,在浓度为0.4μg/m L,单株受药量为10 m L时杀雄效果良好;乙烯利、咔嘧磺隆、甲磺隆无杀雄作用。[结论]该研究为化学杀雄药剂在苦瓜制种上的安全应用提供理论依据和技术支撑。
