- Abstract:Low temperature in winter is an adverse abiotic stress to sugarcane industry,and caused significant loss.In order to investigate the response of Ca2+ and Ca2+-ATPase activity in the stem tip of different cold sensitivity sugarcane cultivars,Electron microscope (EMS) and phytohistochemistry technology were employed to detect the changes of Ca2+ level and Ca2+-ATPase activity in the stem tips of two sugarcane varieties YL6 (cold sensitive) and GT28 (cold resistant) before and after low temperature treatment.The plants were treated at 0 ℃ in fridge and samples were taken after treatment at 0,2,4 and 6 d,respectively.The results showed that there was no significant morphological difference and cellular structures in the stem tip of GT28 before and after low temperature stress.On the contrary,the cells in the stem tip of YL6 showed plasmolysis with mitochondria vacuolization,the cells were distorted and broken down,and the tissues were fully hygrophanous with the ongoing of the stress.Both sugarcane cultivars showed accumulation of Ca2+ pellets in cytoplasm and nucleolus of the stem tip cells at the beginning of low temperature stress.The accumulated Ca2+ pellets in GT28 decreased and maintained at low level with the ongoing of the stress,but those in YL6 maintained at high level.Low temperature stress showed very little influence on the Ca2+-ATPase activity and its distribution in GT28,which kept high-level.On the contrary,Ca2+-ATPase activity in YL6 reduced with the ongoing of stress.In conclusion,high level of Ca2+ in cytoplasm is one of the important reasons that responsible for cell injury,while high Ca2+-ATPase activity might play an important role in avoiding high Ca2+ toxicity.Keywords:sugarcane;stem tip;low temperature;Ca;2+;-ATPase1|7|0<HTML><L-PDF> <Meta-XML>Updated:2024-02-27

- Abstract:For studying the low seeded rate of apple-pear hybridization,we hybridized apple with pear:Malus domestica cv. Red Fuji Spur×Pyrus pyrifolia cv. Gold Nijuseiki;Pyrus pyrifolia cv. Gold Nijuseiki×Malus domestica cv. Gala.Pollen germination,pollen tube growth in style and type of seed were investigated,respectively.Growth inhibition of pollen tubes in distant style is a reason for low seeded rate,while abnormal growth of hybrid seeds is another reason.The growth inhibition of Gold Nijuseiki pollen tube in Fuji style,which happens in the foreside of Fuji style,is stronger than that of Gala pollen tube in Gold Nijuseiki style in which inhibition occurres in the middle of style.This inhibition may be caused by the different structure of apple and pear styles.In Fuji×Gold Nijuseiki,the seeds growth inhibition is seed abortion,while in Gold Nijuseiki×Gala this inhibition leads to thinness seeds and abnormal seeds.1|6|0<HTML><L-PDF> <Meta-XML>Updated:2024-02-27
