Effects of light and photoperiodic conditions on abscisic acid in leaves and roots of Acer pseudoplatanus L.

Abstract: Roots of Acer pseudoplatanus seedlings grown in liquid nutrient medium contained much lower levels of both free and bound abscisic acid than did leaves. The levels of free abscisic acid were similar in young expanding and of mature leaves, but lower in older senscing leaves. Growing plants under long days or short days did not influence the levels of free and bound abscisic acid in leaves. However, under both long days and short days, levels of bound abscisic acid were lower at the end of the dark period than … Show more

“…This growth cessation was not accompanied by significant changes in stomatal resistance or in transpiration, neither was there any correlation between free ABA content in shoots and elongation rate. This is in accordance with results of Lenton et al (1972), Alvim et al (1979) and Phillips et al (1980). All these results indicate that photoperiod does not regulate elongation growth in Salix primarOy by affecting the ABA level in the plants.…”

“…The role of ABA in regulation of growth and growth cessation is a matter of controversy. Although some studies of seasonal changes of ABA content in woody plants have indicated a correlation between ABA content and the state of bud dormancy (Davison and Young 1974, Wright 1975, Alvim et al 1976, Webber et al 1979, experiments performed under controlled conditions have failed to establish a connection between ABA content and SD-induced growth cessation (Letiton et al 1972, Alvim et al, 1979, Phillips et al 1980.…”

“…,An increased ABA level was found in the apical and lateral buds during SD treatment, while the changes in the leaves were generally the opposite, if any (Fig, 4, Tab, 4), ,'^lthough earlier work demonstrated an increase in inhibitor content in SD (Wareing and Saunders 1971), other studies ha\e failed to show such an effect (Lenton et al, 1972, Phillips et al, 1980, Barros and Neill 1986, Johansen et al, 1986, The controversy may be related to differences between species and ecotypes, or between the types of tissue analysed, \ birch of northern origin was studied in the present experiments, while tnuch more southern ones were studied by others (Lenton et al, 1972, Hocking and Hilhtian 19751, and latitudinal ecotypes of bttch ha\'e markedly different photoperiodic responses (Habjorg 1972), In their studies, Johansen et al, (1986) and Barros and Neill (1986) analysed whole shoots with leaves. Lateral buds have not been analysed before.…”

“…Light also increases ABA in bean seedlings (TrLLBERG 1974) and in pea roots (TIETZ 1974), while red light is postulated to increase ABA in mung bean root tips (T ANADA 1973). Light, especially far red-enriched light, accelerates the glucosylation of ABA and the metabolism of ABA to phaseic acid (LoVEYS 1979, PHILLIPS et al 1980). Low light intensity decreases the cytokinin content of roots of Solanum andigena exposed to short days (WOOLLEY and WAREING 1972a).…”
