摘要
温带地区的高山多年生草本植物可在-30℃组织结冰状况下生存,然而人们并不了解其抗冻的生理机理。本研究目的拟通过测定自然生境下生长的4种高寒山区禾本科牧草(无芒雀麦(Bromus inermis Leyss.)、花雀麦(Bromus sinensis Keng.)、垂穗披碱草(Elymus nutans Griseb.)、草地早熟禾(Poa sphyondylodes Trin.)根中渗透调节物、膜脂过氧化产物、多胺含量季节变化,以了解他们与牧草抗冻的关系。结果表明,在晚秋(9月1~15日)牧草根中MDA含量增高,尔后下降,冬季保持恒定。总碳水化合物(TNC),可溶性糖、脯氨酸、可溶性蛋白质含量随晚秋气温下降而增加,在11月达到最高,尔后下降,且持续到翌年春季。随晚秋气温下降从9月到11月根中多胺含量迅速增加,4种牧草平均增加180%,其中亚精胺(Spd)占多胺含量的53%。在11月牧草根中多胺几乎完全消失。上述物质在晚秋入冬增加正好与牧草抗冻锻炼时间相吻合,因而是植物抗冻适应的重要生理响应和植物越冬的低温保护物质。他们在降低细胞冰点、防止细胞结冰引起的膜机械伤害,抑制膜脂过氧化保护膜稳定性方面具有重要作用。
We assayed seasonal changes in lipid peroxidation and proline, protein, polyamine, TNC, soluble sugar and starch concentration in roots of four perennial forage grasses: Poa sphyondylodes Trin., Bromus inermis Leyss., B. sinensis Keng., and Elymus nutans Griseb. Our results showed though MDA levels remained relative constant over winter in live roots of all four species MDA levels in nearly dead leaves increased by 70% during late fall and rose by 28 % between September 1 and September 15. High root TNC and soluble sugar concentrations were observed in autumn for all species, but these then declined throughout winter and spring. Root soluble sugar, starch, soluble protein and proline concentrations increased by 86%, 14%, 70%, and 1000% respectively from September to November. During winter however, measured concentrations of these chemicals all declined. Root polyamines increased by 180% between September and October, one of which, Spd, had a high ratio to total polyamine pools. By November polyamine pools had decreased to levels too small to be detected. All measured cryoprotective substances accumulated in the roots of these forage grass species during winter hardening in autumn and then decreased gradually throughout winter and spring. These seasonal patterns were negatively correlated with temperature, and positively with winter hardening. Cryoprotective substances may supply nutrients to regrowing shoots in spring and contribute to the stabilization of the cell membrane by preventing lipid peroxidation and by binding the tissue water.
