Abstract
The effect of phosphate supply during the first 4 weeks of the life cycle of wheat ( Triticum aestivum L. cv. Martonvásári‐8) was investigated by following growth of seedlings, P levels in roots and shoots, changes of soluble phosphatases in roots and alteration of Ca 2+ ‐ and Mg 2+ ‐ATPase activity in the microsomal fraction. Plants were grown in complete nutrient solution supplemented with different levels of phosphate. Maximal growth rate was attained at 0.2 m M phosphate. The total P level in plants increased with increasing phosphate concentration in the growth solution, however, it decreased with age. Microsomal ATPase activity in 14‐day‐old plants increased with phosphorus deficiency. Using phosphocellulose column chromatography, a phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.2) induced by phosphorus deficiency was purified and partially characterized from the 30 000 g supernatant from roots of 14‐ to 30‐day‐old wheat plants. Na‐pyrophosphate, p ‐nitrophenylphosphate, ATP, ADP, AMP, O‐phosphoryl‐ l ‐serine and glucose‐6‐phosphate were all substrates for the enzyme. Its native molecular weight was 42 kDa as determined by Sephadex G‐200 column chromatography. Readdition of phosphate to the growth solution resulted in a gradual decrease of the phosphatase activity, probably due to repression of its synthesis. We hypothesize that the extra phosphatase may participate in the adaptation mechanism under phosphorus‐deficient conditions.
