摘要  

本研究关注了高产杂交稻两优培九(LYP9)的中脉和叶薄片在水稻衰老阶段的光合特性:在衰老阶段,中脉中同化作用和蒸腾作用降低的速度较叶薄片缓慢,说明中脉具有相对更持久的光合作用和更强的热耗散。双向电泳结果显示,相较于叶薄片,中脉中的光合作用和能量代谢受叶片衰老的影响更小。在衰老后期,中脉通过叶黄素循环消耗多余的能量,比叶薄片具有更活跃的光合能力,因此我们推测两优培九的中脉和叶薄片在其叶片成熟过程中存在异步性,在光合途径中承担着不同角色。基于以上结果,本文为研究水稻中脉衰老过程的潜在机制和相关生理特性提供了新的途径和理论支持




Abstract  Previous studies with rice (Oryza sativa L.) have shown that the different components of the photosynthetic apparatus are not uniformly synthesized or degraded during senescence.  However, while most of those studies have focused on the leaf lamina, few have addressed senescence-associated chloroplast function or leaf physiology.  Here, we investigated the photosynthetic properties of the mid-vein and leaf lamina in a high-yield hybrid rice cultivar (Liangyoupei 9, LYP9) during the senescence stage.  Assimilation and transpiration decreased more slowly in the mid-vein than in the lamina during senescence, suggesting more sustained photosynthesis in the mid-vein, as well as stronger heat dissipation.  Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis suggested that photosynthesis and energy metabolism were less affected by senescence in the mid-vein than in the leaf lamina.  During late senescence, the excess energy dissipation in the mid-vein through the xanthophyll cycle had a higher active photosynthetic capacity than in the leaf lamina, and we inferred that the mid-vein and leaf lamina of LYP9 rice differed in terms of their maturation.  Taken together, these results provide new insights into the underlying mechanisms of senescence of the rice mid-vein and associated physiology.
