Abstract
To understand the role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in regulation of the plasma membrane (PM) H+-ATPase in acid-stressed Masson pine roots, different acidity (pH 6.6 as the control, pH 5.6 and pH 4.6) of simulated acid rain (SAR) added with and without external chemicals (H2O2, enzyme inhibitors and ROS scavenger) was prepared. After 30 days of SAR exposure, the plant morphological phenotype attributes, levels of cellular ROS and lipid peroxidation, enzymatic activities of antioxidants, PM nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase activity and PM H+-ATPase activity in pine seedlings were measured. Compared with the control, the growth of pine seedlings exposed to SAR in the presence or absence of H2O2 was well-maintained, but the application of Na3VO4, 1,3-dimethyl-2-thiourea, N, N-dimethylthiourea (DMTU) and diphenyleneiodonium chloride (DPI) caused a substantial growth inhibition. In addition, SAR exposure, SAR with H2O2 treatment, and SAR with Na3VO4 treatment increased the cellular H2O2 content, O2- content and malondialdehyde (MDA) content, while the use of DMTU and DPI lead to relatively low levels. Similarly, the enzymatic activities of antioxidants, PM NADPH oxidase and PM H+-ATPase in acid stressed pine seedlings elevated with the increasing acidity. A significant stimulation of these enzymatic activities obtained from SAR with H2O2 treatment was observed, whereas which decreased obviously with the addition of Na3VO4, DMTU and DPI (P < 0.05). Moreover, a positive correlation was found between plant morphological attributes and the PM H+-ATPase activity (P < 0.05). Besides, the PM H+-ATPase activity positively correlated with the cellular ROS contents and the enzymatic activities of antioxidants and PM NADPH oxidase (P < 0.05). Therefore, the PM H+-ATPase is instrumental in the growth of pine seedlings resisting to acid stress by enhancing its activity. The process involves the signaling transduction of cellular ROS and coordination with PM NADPH oxidase.
期刊介绍:
Tree Physiology promotes research in a framework of hierarchically organized systems, measuring insight by the ability to link adjacent layers: thus, investigated tree physiology phenomenon should seek mechanistic explanation in finer-scale phenomena as well as seek significance in larger scale phenomena (Passioura 1979). A phenomenon not linked downscale is merely descriptive; an observation not linked upscale, might be trivial. Physiologists often refer qualitatively to processes at finer or coarser scale than the scale of their observation, and studies formally directed at three, or even two adjacent scales are rare. To emphasize the importance of relating mechanisms to coarser scale function, Tree Physiology will highlight papers doing so particularly well as feature papers.
