Abstract: | The state of overwintering cereals during their transition into anabiosis is studied. It is shown that by the time growth
processes associated with a decrease of temperature below physiological zero ceases, free amino acids are utilized, the quantitative
ratio of protein amino acids changes, and raffinose, sucrose, and phenylalanine accumulate in the aboveground part of the
plants. It is concluded that the transition of cereals to a state of anabiosis occurs upon maximum binding of intracellular
water by the protein-carbohydrateamino acid complex after stabilization of negative ambient temperatures. The results of this
work and a number of previous publications permitted formulating an idea about the structure of the physiological and biochemical
mechanism of adaptation to negative temperatures acquired by perennial cereals during evolution. |
