Abstract:
:The technique of EDTA-enhanced phloem exudation (King and Zeevaart, 1974: Plant Physiol. 53, 96-103) was evaluated with respect to the collection and identification of amino acids exported from senescing wheat leaves. Whilst the characteristics of the exudate collected conform with many of the accepted properties of phloem exudate, unexpectedly high molar proportions of phenylalanine and tyrosine were observed. By comparing exudation into a range chelator solutions with exudation into water, the increased exudation of phenylalanine and tyrosine relative to the other amino acids occurring when ethylene-diaminetetracetic acid was used, was considered to an artefact.In plants thought to be relying heavily on mobilisation of protein reserves to satisfy the nitrogen requirements of the grain, the major amino acids present in flag-leaf phloem exudate were glutamate, aspartate, serine, alanine and glycine. Only small proportions of amides were present until late in senescence when glutamine became the major amino acid in phloem exudate (25 molar-%). Glutamine was always the major amino acid in xylem sap (50 molar-%).The activities of glutamine synthetase (EC 6.3.1.2), glutamate synthase (EC 1.4.7.1), glutamate dehydrogenase (EC 1.4.1.3) and asparagine synthetase (EC 5.3.5.4) were measured in the flag leaf throughout the grain-filling period. Glutamine synthetase and glutamate-synthase activities declined during this period. Glutamate-dehydrogenase activity was markedly unchanged despite variation in the number of multiple forms visualised after gel electrophoresis. The activity of the enzyme reached a peak only very late in the course of senescence of the flag leaf. No asparagine-synthetase activity could be detected in the flag leaf during the grain-filling period.
