The contents of unsaturated fatty acids of thylakoid membrane lipids decreased and that of the saturated ones increased with the time of chilling and strong light treatment, resulting in the reduction of the index of unsaturation of fatty acids (IUFA). The activity of violaxanthin deepoxidase (VDE), a key enzyme of xanthophyll cycle, also reduced. The content of violaxanthin (V) increased, and the contents of antheraxanthin (A) and zeaxanthin M decreased, the ratio of (A+Z)/ (A+Z+V) decreased correspondingly. Arrhenius analysis showed that VDE was sensitive to both chilling and unsaturation level of thylakoid membrane lipids. Correlation analysis showed that there was distinctly positive relationships between IUFA of thylakoid membrane lipids and the activity of VDE, Fv/Fm, and D, protein content. Lower IUFA values, less fluidity and stability of thylakoid membrane lipids, lower VDE activity and (A+Z)/(A+Z+V) ratio were found in indica rice cv. Shanyou 63 than in japonica rice cv. 9516 under chilling and strong light.展开更多

(Sterculi-aceae) is widelydistributed in southeastern Asia and traditionally used as a fish, arrowhead, and spearhead poison .It has also been used as a folk medicine to treat he-maturia and diarrhea for a long history inChina . Past investigations on the chemical constituents of this plant have yielded fourtriterpenes, five sesquiterpenes, a phe-nylproanoid-glycerol and four flavonoids. In the presentstudy, eight flavonoids were isolated from the 95% EtOH extract of the leaves of this plant, andidentified as quercitrin (1), quercetin (2),kaempferol-3-O-(6″-O-E-p-coumaroyl)-β-D-glucopyranoside ( 3 ), kaempferol (4), kaempferitrin (5),myricetin (6), eriodictyol (7), and catechin (8) on the basis of their spectral data.展开更多
