Characterization of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid oxidase from barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) seedlings and pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) needles
1999
Abstract Biochemical characteristics of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) oxidase extracted from barley ( Hordeum vulgare L.) leaves and pine ( Pinus sylvestris L.) needles were investigated. ACC oxidase from barley leaves was soluble while for complete recovery of ACC oxidase from pine needles addition of Triton X-100 to extraction medium was necessary. The enzyme required Fe 2+ , ascorbate and NaHCO 3 for maximum activity. A non-linear time course of ACC oxidase reaction indicated possible catalytic inactivation of the enzyme. The maximum activity was measured at pH 7.0–7.2 for ACC oxidase from both barley leaves and pine needles. The apparent K m for ACC was found to be 77 and …
The influence of α-aminophosphonic acids on the activity of aminopeptidase from barley seeds—an approach to determine the enzyme specificity
2015
Inhibitory potencies of 24 α-aminophosphonic acids against barley seeds (Hordeum vulgare L.) metallo-aminopeptidase have been determined to evaluate structural requirements of this enzyme. The enzyme was sensitive mostly to the influence of phosphonic acid analogues of phenylalanine and its homologues, thus showing narrow specificity if compared with porcine aminopeptidases M1 and M17 and with Plasmodium aminopeptidase M17.
A barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) LEA3 protein, HVA1, is abundant in protein storage vacuoles
1996
The HVA1 protein belongs to the LEA3 group, which is expressed during the late stage of seed maturation. It is also induced by exogenous abscisic acid (ABA) and a variety of environmental stresses in germinating barley (Hordeum vulgare L.). In the present work, the potential role of HVA1 was investigated by studying its tissue distribution and subcellular localization in mature and stressed seeds by immuno-microscopic methods. In the mature seed, HVA1 protein was detected in all tissues except the non-living starchy endosperm. During germination the amount of HVA1 protein decreased but did not totally disappear. Incubation with 100 μM ABA, cold treatment or drought stress dramatically incre…

Risultati nazionali delle varietà da malto
2006
I risultati delle prove 2005-2006 nelle 10 località del Centro-sud e Isole hanno evidenziato buone medie produttive con la conferma a leader della varietà Prosa. I buoni risultati in generale evidenziano ulteriormente l’adattabilità di questa specie alle condizioni mediterranee.
Piogge interminabili rese in forte calo
2013
Il clima avverso è stato l'elemento chiave dell'annata, con un decremento delle produzioni fino al 30%. E il colpo di grazia potrebbe arrivare dalle micotossine.
Biomass Assessment of Agricultural Crops Using Multi-temporal Dual-Polarimetric TerraSAR-X Data
2019
The biomass of three agricultural crops, winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), and canola (Brassica napus L.), was studied using multi-temporal dual-polarimetric TerraSAR-X data. The radar backscattering coefficient sigma nought of the two polarization channels HH and VV was extracted from the satellite images. Subsequently, combinations of HH and VV polarizations were calculated (e.g. HH/VV, HH + VV, HH × VV) to establish relationships between SAR data and the fresh and dry biomass of each crop type using multiple stepwise regression. Additionally, the semi-empirical water cloud model (WCM) was used to account for the effect of crop biomass on radar backscatter …
Amber Particles as Living Plant Cell Markers in Flow Cytometry / Dzintara Daļiņas Kā Dzīvu Augu Šūnu Marķieri Plūsmas Citometrijā
2015
Abstract The unique biological properties of amber are well known. Amber particles that penetrate into the cellular matrix can potentially be used as markers of plant cell biological activity by identification of living cells in flow cytometry. However, there have been no studies on effect of amber particles on plant cells. The aim of this study was to determine effect of amber nano- and micro- (5 nm-3 μm) particles on somatic and gametic cells and to assess the possibility to use amber particles as alive plant cells markers. To reach the aim, fluorescence of cells was determined in the presence of amber particles, and amber components - spirit of amber and sodium succinate dibasic hexahydr…
Purification and partial characterization of aminopeptidase from barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) seeds.
2013
Aminopeptidases (EC 3.4.11) are proteolytic enzymes, which hydrolyze one amino acid from N-terminus of peptidic substrates. Inhibitors of plant aminopeptidases can find an application in agriculture as herbicides. Isolation and partial characterization of aminopeptidase from barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) seeds has been described. The enzyme was purified to molecular homogeneity using a six-step purification procedure (precipitation with (NH4)2SO4, followed by chromatography on Sephadex G-25, DEAE-Sepharose, Sephacryl HR 300, Macro-Prep Q and Phenyl-Sepharose HP columns). The enzyme was purified 365-fold with recovery above 18%. The molecular weight of the purified enzyme was determined by SDS…
