Effects of flooding on downstream processes of glycolysis and fermentation in roots of Melaleuca cajuputi seedlings

Abstract: We investigated the energy metabolism in roots of flooded Melaleuca cajuputi Powell, a tropical floodtolerant tree species, by measuring adenylate concentrations and activities of glycolytic and fermentative enzymes under flooded conditions. Adenylate energy charge (AEC) decreased slightly to 0.72 on the second day of flooding and recovered to around 0.8 by the fourth day of flooding. Activities of pyruvate decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.1) and alcohol dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.1) increased initially and then decreased… Show more

“…Christianson et al 2010;LeProvost et al 2012); in poplar, elevated ADH and PDC transcript abundance appeared in less than 1 h after the change from normoxia to hypoxia ). There are hints that flood-tolerant species exhibit higher rates of alcoholic fermentation than flood-sensitive trees (Porth et al 2005;Parelle et al 2006;LeProvost et al 2012), but such patterns are not consistent (Yamanoshita et al 2005;Ferner et al 2012).…”

“…Seeds were germinated in acid-washed and sterilized sand. Seedlings were grown in a growth chamber (16 h light/8 h dark; 200 μmol m −2 s −1 photosynthetic photon flux density; 30°C) and were watered daily with nutrient solution that was modified from that described by Yamanoshita et al (2005) and contained 2 mM NH 4 NO 3 , 0.1 mM NaH 2 PO 4 , 0.6 mM KCl, 0.35 mM CaCl 2 , 0.25 mM MgSO 4 , 10 μM FeSO 4 , 20 μM H 3 BO 3 , 3 μM MnCl 2 , 1 μM ZnSO 4 , 0.5 μM CuSO 4 , and 0.5 μM Na 2 MoO 4 (pH 4.0). Seedlings of 2 to 6 months old were transferred into 3-l plastic pots (six seedlings per pot) containing the aerated nutrient solution described above.…”

“…The seedlings subsequently grow rapidly as groundwater levels decrease after the rainy season, and they may reach heights greater than 1 m within 1 year after germination; as a result, they rarely suffer from complete submergence during subsequent rainy seasons. Melaleuca cajuputi seedlings develop adventitious roots that are connected to the aboveground portion of the stem above the water through aerenchyma in response to flooding, which permits aerobic respiration for roots below the water (Yamanoshita 2001;Yamanoshita et al 2005). The high flooding tolerance of this species is one reason why pure M. cajuputi forests form in peat swamps.…”
