Allelochemicals in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.): cultivar difference in the exudation of phenolic acids

Analysis by GC-MS/MS showed that a worldwide collection of 58 wheat accessions differed significantly in the amounts of 7 known phenolic acids exuded by the living roots of 17-day-old wheat seedlings. The quantities of exuded allelochemicals varied with the specific compound and ranged from 2.3 to 18.6, from 0.6 to 17.5, from 0.1 to 4.9, from 0.0 to 52.7, from 0.33 to 12.7, from 1.5 to 20.5, and from 1.6 to 23.4 microg/L of water/agar for p-hydroxybenzoic, vanillic, cis-p-coumaric, syringic, cis-ferulic, trans-p-coumaric, and trans-ferulic acids, respectively. The concentrations of p-hydroxybenzoic and vanillic acids exuded by wheat seedlings were normally distributed in the 58 accessions. The level of each phenolic acid in root exudates did not correlate well to that previously observed in wheat. In comparison with weakly allelopathic accessions, strongly allelopathic accessions exuded larger quantities of allelochemicals into the growth medium. The chemical basis for wheat seedling allelopathy is an area for further investigation.     

Allelochemicals in wheat (Triticum aestivum l.): variation of phenolic acids in root tissues

Analysis by GC/MS/MS showed that a worldwide collection of 58 wheat accessions differed significantly in the production of seven phenolic acids in the roots of 17-day-old wheat seedlings. The allelochemical contents among wheat accessions ranged from 24.5 to 94.5, 19.9 to 91.7, 3.7 to 15.4, 2.2 to 38.6, 1.0 to 42.2, 19.3 to 183.6, and 11.7 to 187.6 mg/kg of root dry weight for p-hydroxybenzoic, vanillic, cis-p-coumaric, syringic, cis-ferulic, trans-p-coumaric, and trans-ferulic acids, respectively. trans-Ferulic acid was identified as the most predominant phenolic acid in the roots. Phenolic acids, with the exception of syringic acid, were more concentrated in roots than in shoots. Significant correlation was found between the roots and the shoots in the contents of vanillic, cis-p-coumaric, syringic, trans-p-coumaric, and trans-ferulic acids, and in the content of each structural group of phenolic acids. Wheat accessions with high levels of total identified phenolic acids in the roots were generally strongly allelopathic to the growth of annual ryegrass.     

看麦娘叶片对化感小麦根水提液的生理响应

为阐明小麦化感抑草的生理机制,选择强化感小麦‘115/青海麦’、‘92L89’和弱化感小麦‘抗10103’,通过添加浓度为0.2%、0.5%和1.0%的小麦根水提液进行水培试验3周后,测定了各处理看麦娘的鲜重,分析叶片中叶绿素(SPAD值)、可溶蛋白、MDA、类黄酮、总酚的含量以及SOD、POD、CAT活性。结果表明,水提液处理显著抑制了看麦娘的生长,抑制率在不同处理浓度及小麦品种间均存在显著差异,强化感小麦的抑制率显著高于弱化感小麦。在处理浓度范围内,不同小麦根水提液的抑制率大小依次为‘115/青海麦’(24.7%~74.3%)‘92L89’(15.7%~71.6%)‘抗10103’(13.8%~61.4%);0.2%、1.0%和5.0%水提液处理的抑制率大小依次为13.8%~24.7%、41.7%~66.4%和61.4%~74.2%。看麦娘叶绿素含量(SPAD值)随处理浓度增大显著降低,可溶蛋白含量,SOD、POD、CAT活性,MDA、类黄酮含量随处理浓度增大显著升高,强化感小麦对看麦娘的生理刺激作用高于弱化感小麦。1.0%‘115/青海麦’及5.0%各小麦水提液处理的看麦娘总酚含量高于对照。可见,小麦化感胁迫提高了看麦娘的保护酶系统活性,增强了抗氧化物质代谢,但显著增强了细胞膜脂质过氧化和叶绿素降解,不利于靶标植物看麦娘的生长。     

Release and activity of allelochemicals from allelopathic rice seedlings

3-Isopropyl-5-acetoxycyclohexene-2-one-1 (1), momilactone B (2), and 5,7,4'-trihydroxy-3',5'-dimethoxyflavone (3) were isolated and identified from an allelopathic rice accession PI312777. These three compounds at low concentrations could inhibit the growth of weeds Echinochloa crusgalli and Cyperus difformis associated with rice, especially mixtures of the compounds had stronger inhibitory activity than did individual compounds. Studies with hydroponic culture, continuous root exudates trapping system (CRETS), and direct resin adsorption methods showed that a total of 7.6 n moles 1, 2, and 3 were exuded from living roots of each seedling into the environment at 10 days after seedlings were transplanted. Furthermore, 1, 2, and 3 were found in the soil growing PI312777 seedlings at day 15 after seedlings emergence and reached a total of 39.5 microg/g soil at day 30. The results indicated that PI 312777 seedlings could release sufficient quantities of 1, 2, and 3 into the environment to act as allelochemicals inhibiting the growth of associated weeds. Investigations on the distribution of 1, 2, and 3 in PI 312777 plant, and its root exudates showed that the levels of 1, 2, and 3 were significantly higher in the shoots and root exudates than in the roots, and only trace 1 was observed in the roots. The results suggest that the roots of rice seedlings are not major site of synthesis or accumulation 1, 2, and 3, but a pathway for their release into the environment. The levels of 1, 2, and 3 in the root exudates were over 2-folds higher under direct resin adsorption than under hydroponic culture and CRETS, and hence, it is the preferred method to collect and identify active allelochemicals in rice exudates in future studies on rice allelopathy.

Phytotoxic effects of wheat extracts on a herbicide-resistant biotype of annual ryegrass (Lolium rigidum)

Thirty-nine wheat accessions were used to evaluate their extract phytotoxicity against annual ryegrass (Lolium rigidum Gaud.). Aqueous extracts of wheat shoot residues significantly inhibited the germination and root growth of a biotype of annual ryegrass resistant to herbicides of acetyl CoA carboxylase inhibitors (group A), acetolactate synthase inhibitors (B), photosystem II inhibitors (C), and tubulin formation inhibitors (D). The germination of the herbicide resistant (HR) biotype was inhibited by 3-100%, depending upon the wheat accession. The phytotoxic effects on ryegrass root growth ranged from 12% stimulation to 100% inhibition, compared to a control. The germination and root growth of a herbicide-susceptible (HS) biotype of annual ryegrass were also inhibited by the wheat extracts, with germination inhibited by 4-100%, and root growth by 19-100%. Bioassays with two known wheat allelochemicals showed that p-coumaric acid and propionic acid significantly inhibited the growth of both HR and HS biotypes of annual ryegrass. The two compounds completely inhibited the root growth of HR ryegrass at concentrations greater than 5.0 mM. In comparison with p-coumaric acid, propionic acid was more inhibitory to seed germination, shoot, and root growth of both ryegrass biotypes. The root growth of the HR biotype was more sensitive when exposed to wheat extracts, to p-coumaric acid, and to propionic acid. The results suggest that residues of certain wheat cultivars with strong allelopathic potential could provide a nonherbicidal alternative for the management of herbicide-resistant weed species.     

植物根分泌的化感物质及其在土壤中的环境行为

植物根系是化感物质进入土壤的重要通道。根系分泌物中含有大量具有化感活性的物质,其中以小分子的酚、酸最为常见,这些物质对植物自身及植物根际微生物和土壤酶具有广泛影响,一度成为化感研究的重要内容。自然状态下根系分泌化感物质的活性效应与植物根系分泌化感物质的强度和累积、化感物质本身的特性以及土壤对化感物质的吸附和降解能力有关。因此,研究化感物质在土壤中的迁移、吸附-解吸附、降解等环境行为是揭示化感物质累积机制的重要工作,应该成为化感研究的重要内容,在今后的研究中应给予充分重视。     

低氮胁迫下小麦抑草作用的化感效应与资源竞争分析

化感效应和资源竞争在作物抑草中起重要作用。为区分低氮胁迫下小麦抑草作用的化感效应与资源竞争,以强化感小麦品种‘115/青海麦’、‘92L89’和弱化感小麦‘抗10103’为材料,设置氮水平为25 mg·L-1、50mg·L-1、100 mg·L-1和200 mg·L-1的水培试验,通过小麦与看麦娘共培、应用含小麦根系分泌物的小麦-看麦娘共培液处理看麦娘,分别测定了小麦对看麦娘的生物干扰作用、化感效应及资源竞争效应。结果表明,不同化感潜力的小麦对看麦娘的抑制能力存在显著差异,抑制率大小为‘115/青海麦’(55.1%~73.9%)‘92L89’(48.9%~65.9%)‘抗10103’(15.4%~45.5%),且抑制率随氮水平的降低而增大。在小麦的抑草作用中,化感效应与资源竞争并存。低氮胁迫条件下,强化感小麦抑草能力增强主要通过提高化感效应实现;弱化感小麦抑草能力增强主要通过提高资源竞争实现。不同化感潜力小麦的抑草作用在低氮胁迫下表现出不同的生态策略。小麦抑草作用的化感效应均随氮水平降低而增大,其抑制率随氮水平的变化可用一元二次方程加以拟合。     

长雄野生稻及其后代抑草效果与化感潜力和农艺性状的关系

明确化感潜力和农艺性状对长雄野生稻(Oryza longistaminata)及其后代抑草效果的影响及相互关系,对发掘与利用野生种质资源的化感基因培育水稻化感新品种具有重要意义。本研究以化感抗稗草长雄野生稻、亚洲栽培稻‘RD23’及其杂交F1代(RD23×O.longistaminata)和F2代单株分离群体为材料,采用室内生物测定和温室盆栽试验相结合方法,研究化感潜力和农艺性状对长雄野生稻及其后代抑制稗草的影响,并探讨三者的相互关系。结果表明,室内生物测定为强化感潜力的水稻材料在盆栽条件下对稗草的密度防效、生物量防效和株高抑制作用并非总强于弱化感和无化感作用的水稻材料,但在根际距离0~3 cm时,强化感潜力水稻材料对伴生稗草的抑制效应显著强于弱化感潜力和无化感作用的水稻材料。不论供试材料化感潜力强弱,当根际距离大于3 cm时,株型高大、分蘖强的供试水稻材料在盆栽条件下对稗草的密度防效、生物量防效和株高抑制作用均显著强于株型矮小、分蘖少的材料。供试水稻材料在不同苗龄对稗草的抑制作用也存在显著差异,苗龄60 d的供试材料在根际距离0~3 cm范围内对伴生稗草的密度防效均小于苗龄30 d的对应处理组,但对伴生稗草的生物量防效和株高抑制作用则大于苗龄30 d对应处理组;之后随着距离的增加,除根际距离在3~6 cm的密度防效外,其他均无显著差异。在根际距离0~3 cm时,供试材料的化感综合效应指数(SE)与对伴生稗草的密度防效、生物量防效和株高抑制作用显著相关,但随根际距离的增加相关性逐渐减小;株高和分蘖数与稗草的密度防效不相关,与生物量防效和株高抑制作用存在一定的相关性。研究结果显示,长雄野生稻及其后代田间抑草效果与化感潜力、苗龄、株高和分蘖数等因素相关,在根际距离0~3 cm时,化感作用在苗龄30 d的强化感潜力水稻材料的抑草效应中起主要作用。     

田间旱育条件下不同化感潜力水稻根际土壤酚酸类和萜类物质分析

酚酸类和萜类是水稻化感作用研究中研究较多、争议较大的2大类化感物质,但目前有关水稻根系分泌物的研究多在实验室条件下进行。本文以国际公认的强化感水稻‘PI312777’和弱化感水稻‘Lemont’为材料,以未种植水稻的土壤为对照,研究了其在田间旱育条件下,不同土壤水分状态(旱地和湿地)时,根际土壤酚酸类和萜类物质的差异。结果表明,不同水分条件下不同化感潜力水稻品种和对照根际土壤中酚酸类物质和萜类物质的组成较为相似,但各物质含量存在一定差异。适度旱胁迫下,各处理根际土壤中所检测到的咖啡酸、对羟基苯甲酸、香草酸、阿魏酸和肉桂酸5种酚酸类物质及总量均有提高,其中强化感水稻‘PI312777’根际土壤中5种酚酸类物质提高最显著,比CK湿地处理提高2.84倍;在各处理根际土壤共检测到的27种萜类物质中,17种是含氧单萜;干旱胁迫导致各处理根际土壤单萜烯、含氧单萜、含氧倍半萜和总萜变化程度和变化趋势不同,单萜烯相对含量在强化感水稻‘PI312777’根际土壤中明显提高,而在弱化感水稻‘Lemont’和对照根际土壤中则降低。本文在此基础上讨论了由此导致2种水稻田间化感抑草效果差异的原因与机制。     

Effect of aluminium and calcium on growth of wheat seedlings and germination of seeds

Two separate experiments were conducted to investigate the aluminium (Al) and calcium (Ca) effects on wheat seedling growth and on seed germination. Wheat (Tritcum aestivum L, cs Yangmai No. 5) seedlings were grown for a 15‐day period and treated with 0.5 mM Al with low Ca (1 mM Ca) or high Ca (5 mM Ca). The growth of seedlings was signficantly inhibited by Al. Supplement of Ca improved the growth of Al‐treated plants, increased dry matter weight of plant and leaf area, and decreased shoot/root ratio. This showed that Ca ameliorated Al toxicity in wheat. In experiments on seed germination, Al concentrations less than 2 mM in the germinating medium had little or no visible effect on length of shoot and root of germinating seed. The germinating rate of seed was not affected significantly by Al, when Al concentrations lower than 5 mM Al. The addition of 3 mM Ca did not increase the length of shoot and root and germination rate of seeds. Both pretreatments with 6 mM Ca and 1 μM GA had no significant effect on the length of shoot and root and amylolytic activity of Al‐treated germinating seeds. No significant differences were found in the total amylolytic activity in Al‐treated and control seeds two days and five days after germination. The results of Al and Ca effects on seedlings and seed germination showed that Al‐toxicity on germinating seeds was different from on seedling growth. The high concentrations of Al inhibit growth of roots and shoots of germinating seeds by other toxicity mechanism rather than interaction of Al with Ca and mobilization of carbohydrate reserves.     

不同种类蔬菜苗期对镉的敏感性研究

产地环境中镉（Cd）对蔬菜的影响主要表现为蔬菜可食部分超标,高浓度时影响其生长发育,基于评述蔬菜幼苗对Cd的敏感性是按其对Cd的吸收累积量来排序,累积Cd量越高定义为该蔬菜幼苗对Cd越敏感,采用水培方法,探讨了Cd对小白菜（叶菜）、黄瓜、豇豆（果菜）和萝卜（根菜）幼苗吸收累积量及生长发育的影响。结果表明,蔬菜幼苗根和茎叶中累积Cd量均随Cd处理浓度的增加而显著增加（P〈0．05）。同一处理浓度下根中Cd含量远高于茎叶中Cd含量,根和茎叶对Cd的累积强弱顺序也即蔬菜苗期对Cd的敏感性排序为小白菜〉萝卜〉黄瓜〉豇豆;随Cd浓度增加,叶片中叶绿素含量降低,过氧化氢酶（CAT）含量升高;蔬菜出苗率、幼苗根长、植株鲜重显著降低。     

Relationships between soluble sugar concentrations in roots and ecosystem stress for first year sugar maple seedlings

Accumulation of reducing sugars (i.e., glucose and fructose) in plant roots has been consistently correlated with forest dieback and decline and, therefore, has potential as a biological indicator of ecosystem stress. In this study, the relationships between acidic deposition and “natural” (temperature, mycorrhizae, and nutrition) factors with first-year sugar maple seedling root sugar concentrations and growth were assessed in two sugar maple dominated forests in Michigan. Seedlings at the southern site (Wellston) had greater root growth, phosphorus, total sugar, and sucrose concentrations in roots, but lower reducing sugar concentration in roots. In addition, percent root length colonized by vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi was less than that found for seedlings growing at the northern site (Alberta). Throughfall deposition of nitrate, sulfate, and hydrogen ions was not significantly correlated with seedling total or reducing sugar concentration. Total sugar concentration in seedling roots was positively correlated with air and soil temperatures at the southern site, but not at the northern site. Seedling tissue phosphorus concentration was correlated with total sugars at both sites, with sucrose at the southern site, and reducing sugars at the northern site. Mycorrhizal colonization rates at the Alberta site were positively correlated with reducing sugar concentration in seedling roots and negatively correlated with sucrose concentration. The results suggest that differences in seedling root sugar concentrations in these two forests are related to seedling root growth and are most likely due to ecological variables, such as available soil phosphorus, temperature, and growing season length through some complex interaction with mycorrhizae rather than acidic deposition stress.     

不同种植模式土壤水浸提液对胡麻的化感效应

采用浸提液生物测试法研究了不同种植模式土壤水浸提液对胡麻的化感效应。结果表明:1)不同处理土壤水浸提液对胡麻种子萌发有不同程度的抑制作用,高浓度处理比低浓度处理抑制作用更强,且抑制效应由大到小依次是胡麻连作胡-麦间作撂荒小麦连作,说明胡麻连作更能产生连作障碍,自毒效应明显;2)不同处理土壤水浸提液对胡麻幼苗的苗鲜重、根鲜重、根长有不同程度的抑制作用,且高浓度主要抑制苗鲜重、根鲜重和根长,低浓度主要抑制根鲜重、根长,胡麻连作和撂荒处理对幼苗生长抑制要大于胡-麦间作和小麦连作处理;3)不同处理土壤水浸提液对胡麻影响的综合效应随浸提液浓度的升高而增大,而小麦连作高浓度处理比低浓度处理抑制作用变化不明显,且综合效应由大到小依次是胡麻连作撂荒胡-麦间作小麦连作;4)不同种植模式处理土壤可以减轻胡麻连作产生的化感效应,处理顺序为小麦连作胡-麦间作胡麻连作。综上所述,胡麻连作障碍问题确实存在,合理的作物布局有利于改善由于胡麻自身化感物质积累所造成的连作障碍。     

干旱胁迫与外源激素PDJ对不同基因型小麦化感潜力的诱导调控

盆载条件下对4个不同基因型小麦品种于播种前以外源激素PDJ(10 mg·L-1)浸种处理和返青期始干旱胁迫,测定其光合特性、水分利用和化感抗草差异.结果表明:水分胁迫(田间持水量的45%)和PDJ处理均能增强几种供试小麦的化感抗草诱导效应,两者均通过降低杂草生物量从而抑制杂草生长.水分胁迫和PDJ处理均能增强"兰考95-25"、"小偃6号"拔节期的叶片光合速率,降低气孔限制值和提高水分利用率;"豫麦66"PDJ处理下可增强光合作用而降低水分利用率,但干旱胁迫下则相反;"兰考217"经PDJ处理光合速率和水分利用率均降低.典范对应分析发现供试小麦受到干旱胁迫和外源激素PDJ处理后会引起植物形态和光合生理的变化,从而影响其化感抗草特性.小麦整体化感潜势与以杂草生物量(杂草鲜重/盆)表示的抗草指标显著相关,而小麦的整体抗草特性主要与其水分利用率、光合速率和蒸腾速率显著正相关,与植物地上生物量、株高、节间距离和气孔导度显著负相关.     

螯合-缓冲营养液中不同磷锌配比对小麦苗期磷-锌关系的影响

采用螯合-缓冲营养液培养方法对小麦进行了苗期培养试验,在3个磷水平(0、0.6 mmol·L-1、3.0mmol·L-1)和3个锌水平(0、3μmol·L-1、30 μmol·L-1)的完全组合下对小麦苗期的磷-锌关系进行了研究,以期为提高小麦籽粒锌的生物有效性提供理论依据.结果表明,与正常磷锌供应比较,磷锌的缺乏与过量均不利于小麦生长,缺磷比过量供磷的抑制程度更大,而过量供锌比缺锌的影响更为强烈,缺磷和过量供锌主要影响小麦幼苗的分蘖和地上部干物质的积累.过量供磷时,小麦根部存在明显的磷-锌拮抗,抑制了根部对锌的吸收,但磷的供应却提高了锌在小麦植株体内向地上部的转运;缺锌时,小麦叶片会积累大量磷,而供锌后则会抑制磷在小麦植株体内向地上部的转运.在小麦苗期,磷、锌均处于正常水平时其交互作用有利于锌的吸收和向地上部转运,但抑制了磷向叶部的转运.此外,磷、锌的缺乏均降低了叶绿素SPAD值,而磷的正常供应和锌的供应促进了叶绿素的合成.缺磷胁迫时小麦叶片的SOD和POD活性较高,而CAT活性较低;锌缺乏和过量时叶片SOD活性较低,而缺锌时POD和CAT活性较高,供锌后二者活性降低.总之,磷-锌拮抗作用主要发生在小麦根部,但在其他器官内也会发生;且不仅在二者配比不合理时发生,即使在配比合理时也会发生.     

Accumulation of amino acids,proline, and carbohydrates in response to aluminum and manganese stress in maize

Synthesis of amino acids, proline, and carbohydrates was studied in roots and shoots of 5 maize accessions, differing in aluminum (Al) and manganese (Mn) tolerance, in response to Al and Mn stress at the seedling stage in solution culture. The concentrations of these metabolites increased in roots and shoots of the seedlings in the nutrient solution with added Al (0.22 mM), and Mn (2.0 mM). Both Al and/or Mn tolerant and non‐tolerant accessions accumulated more metabolites under stress than control. Generally, the tolerant accessions accumulated more solutes than the non‐tolerant maize accessions examined.

野燕麦繁殖和抗逆特性及其对小麦的他感效应研究

作为一种分布广泛的农田恶性杂草,野燕麦具有很强的环境胁迫适应能力,并且在种间竞争中常处于优势地位。本试验对野燕麦种群的繁殖与扩散特性、种子与幼苗抗逆特性及其根系分泌物对小麦的异株克生作用进行了研究,以期为找寻治理野燕麦的有效措施提供参考。结果表明:(1)野燕麦具有很强的种子繁殖与扩散能力,开花结实比小麦早,种子产量大、地下储量多、扩散距离远;(2)野燕麦种子对温度的适应范围较广,在室温与变温条件下均可以正常萌发,而冷冻后置于室温环境是其萌发最佳条件,总发芽率可达93.33%;(3)野燕麦种子对盐胁迫具有一定的适应性,在浓度低于1.8%的NaCl溶液中均可正常萌发;(4)野燕麦幼苗对盐胁迫和干旱胁迫具有较强的适应性,随着NaCl浓度和PEG浓度的升高,野燕麦幼苗叶片的脯氨酸含量显著增加(P0.01),过氧化氢酶活性呈现先增加后下降的趋势;(5)野燕麦根系水浸提液对小麦幼苗株高、干重、根长及根系活力均有极显著影响(P0.01),证明野燕麦根系分泌物对小麦幼苗生长具有异株克生作用。以上结果表明,野燕麦的竞争优势主要体现在强大的繁殖扩散能力、较强的抗逆性以及异株克生效应,相关研究可为大田野燕麦防除提供一定理论参考。     

苜蓿根际土壤化感潜力的初步研究

通过盆栽试验和发芽实验初步研究了4个生长年限(处理)的苜蓿地土壤化感作用强弱,其抑制活性强弱依次为:三年生苜蓿地>二年生苜蓿地>一年生苜蓿地>休闲地;在相同处理条件下,苜蓿对其他作物的化感作用强于其自毒效应。在一定年限内,苜蓿化感物质通过根系分泌、残茬分解和地上部分淋溶等途径进入土壤中,呈现出逐年富集的趋势。
