The effects of red/far red (R/FR) ratios on leaf ascorbate (AA) and glutathione (GSH) accumulation were examined in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). Growth under low R/FR ratios resulted in a "shade" phenotype and much lower leaf AA and GSH contents than high (R/FR) ratios. Photosynthesis rates were unaffected by changes in the R/FR ratio but leaf respiration rates, pyridine nucleotide pools and antioxidant enzyme activities were decreased under the low R/FR regime. The GSH pool changed slowly in response to altered R/FR ratios but leaf ascorbate acclimated over a single photoperiod. We conclude that light quality signals, particularly R/FR ratios, are important regulators of antioxidant synthesis and accumulation. These acclimatory changes are an early response to changing light environment.
研究了红光/远红光(R/FR)比例对普通菜豆(Phaseolus vulgaris L.)叶片抗坏血酸(AA)和谷胱甘肽(GSH)积累的影响。在低R/FR比例下生长导致出现“遮荫”表型,且叶片AA和GSH含量比高(R/FR)比例时低得多。光合速率不受R/FR比例变化的影响,但在低R/FR条件下叶片呼吸速率、吡啶核苷酸库和抗氧化酶活性降低。GSH库对R/FR比例的改变反应缓慢,但叶片抗坏血酸在单个光周期内就会适应。我们得出结论,光质信号,尤其是R/FR比例,是抗氧化剂合成和积累的重要调节因子。这些适应性变化是对不断变化的光环境的早期反应。
