Control of Ethylene Induced Permeability of Plant Cells by a Substituted Benzothiadiazole

Abstract: The permeability of bulb tissues of onion (Allium cepa L.), amaryllis (Hippeastrum hybrids), tulip (Tulipa × hybrida) and daffodil (Narcissus tazetta L.) treated with Ethephon and 5‐methyl‐7‐chloro‐4‐ethoxycarbonylmethoxy‐2,1,3‐benzothiadiazole (TH6241), to water and solutions of 1,3‐dimethylurea was determined by the plasmometric methods. Ethylene treatments promoted, while those with TH6241 generally decreased the cell membrane permeability; TH6241 negated the effects of ethylene on cell permeability.

“…Phytotoxicity rather than inhibition of ethylene action was indicated, since application of ethephon did not even partially alleviate the inhibitory effect of AgNOa. Similarly, application of TH6241, an inhibitor of the action of ethylene on cell permeability [19], at concentrations between 5 x lo-'M and 5 x 10T3 M, had no effect on germination in the light or with ethephon and GAG,, in the dark.…”

“…These suggestions are consistent with proposals made by Brown & Edwards (1945), that Striga lacks a germination factor which is synthesized during the pre-treatment period. The proposal that compartmentalized endogenous compound(s) are involved is further substantiated by reports that some of the Striga germination stimulants are known to affect permeability and transport across cellular membranes (Aboles, 1973;Parups, 1977). In this context it is of interest that the observed rate of germination on control discs was low (2-8%) when the latter were placed with discs treated with thidiazuron.…”

“…The weight loss caused by ethylene in experiment 1 could totally be prevented by pre‐treatment with 1‐MCP, and the weight loss in experiment 2 was inhibited by pre‐treatment with 1‐MCP. Therefore weight loss by ethylene must have been mediated via the ethylene receptor and might be due to an effect on cell membrane permeability (Parups 1977). Ethylene and CO 2 not only acted additively but CO 2 could even enhance the effect of ethylene: at 0 kPa CO 2 there was no effect of 0.003 Pa ethylene whereas at 10 kPa CO 2 there was a large effect of 0.003 Pa ethylene.…”
