Magnesium deficiency-induced changes in organic acid metabolism of Citrus sinensis roots and leaves

Abstract: Organic acid (OA) metabolisms are of fundamental importance but very limited data are available on the responses of plant OA metabolisms to Mg-deficiency. Seedlings of Citrus sinensis (L.) Osbeck cv. Xuegan were irrigated with Mg-deficient (0, 50, or 500 μM MgSO 4 ) or Mg-sufficient (2000 μM MgSO 4 ) nutrient solution every other day for 12 weeks. Thereafter, we investigated the content of Mg, malate, and citrate as well as the activities of acidmetabolizing enzymes in roots and leaves. Root malate content rem… Show more

“…O fato do N reduzir a massa da raiz já era esperado, pois esse elemento é requerido em grande quantidade pelas culturas agrícolas e é o mais limitante para o crescimento e desenvolvimento das plantas (OLIVEIRA et al, 2010). O Mg tem como função ativar ou reguladar várias quinases, ATPases, carboxilase/oxigenase RuBP e outras enzimas do metabolismo de carboidratos (MARSCHNER, 2012) e dessa forma, a falta deste nutriente pode causar a redução do crescimento das raízes (YANG et al, 2013;CAKMAK, 2013).…”

“…In addition, Mg also act as a cofactor and allosteric modulator for more than 300 enzymes including ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase (Rubisco), ATPase, protein kinases, RNA polymerase, phosphatases and glutathione synthase [ 1 , 4 ]. Therefore, Mg also functions in many other physiological processes, such as respiration [ 7 ], glycolysis, tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle [ 8 ], energy transfer via adenosine triphosphate [ 9 ], carbohydrate partitioning between source and sink organs [ 1 , 10 ], reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation and related photooxidative damage [ 5 , 11 ], protein biosynthesis, and the formation of DNA and RNA [ 3 ]. Accordingly, a number of studies have investigated the effects of Mg-deficiency on Chl synthesis, transport and utilization of photosynthates [ 1 ], photochemical reactions, CO 2 fixation [ 2 , 4 - 6 ], respiration, TCA cycle [ 7 , 8 ], and ROS metabolism [ 4 , 5 , 11 ].…”

“…As primary metabolites, organic acids not only contribute to fruit quality (Ladaniya ), but also enable plants to respond to abiotic stress (Shlizerman et al , Chaffai and Marzouk , Li et al , Yang et al , , Liao et al ). Although some characteristics of organic acid accumulation in fruits are commonly accepted, the underlying mechanisms are distinct in different fruits.…”
