Responses of dry weight growth under SO ₂ stress in an SO ₂ ‐tolerant plant, Polygonum cuspidatum

Toshiki Natori; Tsumugu Totsuka Ecological Research 1988. doi:10.1007/bf02348690

Other claims from this paper (7)

Intervention effect SO 2 exposure increased leaf area and/or leaf dry weight relative to controls.
Intervention effect SO 2 exposure decreased root dry weight relative to controls.
Intervention effect SO 2 exposure slightly decreased leaf carbon assimilation rate.
Intervention effect SO 2 exposure clearly decreased net photosynthesis.
Intervention effect SO 2 exposure decreased the stem-plus-root dry weight to leaf area ratio relative to controls.
Intervention effect The total leaf carbon absorption to total root nitrogen absorption ratio was similar in SO 2 exposed plants and controls.
Mechanism The authors infer that changes in leaf and root growth under SO 2 may compensate for reduced carbon assimilation and maintain the carbon-to-nitrogen absorption ratio.

Effects of Ultraviolet-B Radiation on the Regulation of Ascorbic Acid Accumulation and Metabolism in Lettuce

Shujuan Liu; Lei Yu; Lipan Liu; et al. Horticulturae 2023. doi:10.3390/horticulturae9020200

Other claims from this paper (9)

Intervention effect Photosynthetic gas exchange measures fell during the first four irradiation days and recovered at day seven.
Intervention effect UV-B increased lettuce AsA, GSH and H2O2 levels significantly.
Association H2O2 level correlated positively with AsA and GSH levels.
Intervention effect UV-B upregulated expression of most genes encoding AsA recycling enzymes.
Intervention effect UV-B downregulated associated AsA recycling enzyme activities.
Mechanism The authors propose that elevated AsA contributes to the AsA–GSH cycle and downregulates AO activity and expression.
Observation UV-B irradiation affected metabolite levels more than treatment time.
Mechanism The authors suggest feedback between AsA recycling enzyme expression and activity regulates AsA homeostasis.
Recommendation The authors recommend short-term UV-B supplementation to enhance lettuce AsA content.

Other claims from this paper (11)

Observation Pipkin had a very high lodging damage susceptibility index (70), while the other cultivars ranged from 1 to 18.
Association Differences between cultivars in number of internodes, plant height and stem weight did not explain their differences in resistance to damage.
Observation Panda had dry weight per unit length of 2·35 mg/mm, among the strongest cultivars.
Observation Jennifer had dry weight per unit length of 2·34 mg/mm, among the strongest cultivars.
Observation Pipkin had dry weight per unit length of 1·75 mg/mm, the lowest among the cultivars.
Intervention effect Nitrogen application increased plant height.
Intervention effect Nitrogen application did not affect dry weight per main stem.
Intervention effect Nitrogen application decreased dry weight per unit length of stem.
Intervention effect The growth regulator treatments reduced plant height.
Intervention effect Dry weight per unit length of stem was similar in growth-regulator-treated and untreated plots.
Recommendation Dry weight per unit length has potential as an objective indicator of straw strength and could be used in cultivar evaluation in the absence of damage in field trials.
