5、 (HEADING 1) Chlorophyll a fluorescence techniques have been used for many years to investigate the effect of environmental factors on plants and become very useful in ecotoxicological studies 1,2. Recently, a method of measuring the fluorescence kinetics by means of direct, time-resolved fluorescen
6、ce measurements has provided detailed information at even 10 s on fast fluorescence rise 3. The fluorescence transient is a biophysical signal that is extremely rich in terms of information and reflects the time course of photosynthesis. Although chlorophyll a fluorescence imaging offers the visuali
7、zation, it is very important to make the links between the fluorescence signal and the behavior of the photosynthetic apparatus. The JIP-test based on the theory of energy fluxes in biomembranes has been used to analyze the chlorophyll a fluorescence kinetics transient widely helping us to have a de

When leaves are exposed to saturating actinic light the Chl a fluorescence curves start from the initial FO intensity (the origin, O) and increased to the highest intensity (P or FM). When the curve is plotted on l

The analysis of these intermediate data points forms the basis of JIP-test. Spirodela polyrhiza could ser

In previous work Spirodela polyrrhiza have been shown to be one of the suitable systems to study leaf senescenc

By using this system we have investigated the effect of L-serine in medium on leaf senescence 10. In this study, we analyze the effect of L-serine on the photosynthetic apparatus

All cultures of intact plants were kept under long-day conditions (16h light and 8h dark) with a light intensity of c.a. 45 molm-2s-1. Cult

Plants were collected at the time according to experimental design. B. Experimenal Methods Chl a fluorescence measurements Chlorophy

21、SULTS AND DISCUSSION A. OJIP Transient The freshly fronds of S. polyrrhiza were used to measure the Chl a fluorescence and the results are shown in Fig. 1 as a typical OJIP transient. The OJIP transient of S. polyrrhiza changed remarkably during cultivation of the leaves on a medium with L-serine un
22、der long-day conditions. After 2 days of cultivation, the fluorescence intensity of the explants was lowered at all the J I P steps and P-step decreased to 76% of fresh fronds. The J step remained almost unchanged within 6 days of cultivation. After 5 days of cultivation, the J step began to decreas
23、e significantly. On the 6th day of cultivation, both the I and P steps disappeared, only a clear J band at about 2ms occurred. Figure 1. Chl a fluorescence transient (OJIP) of fresh leaves (C), leaves cultivated for 2 (S2), 4 (S4), 5 (S5) and 6 (S6) days on a medium with L-serine under long-day cond
24、itions, respectively. B. Electron Flow Energy fluxes for absorption (ABS), trapping (TR), and electron transport were the functional parameters of photosynthetic apparatus and the flux ratios were calculated by JIP-test. TR/ABS decreased slightly within 4 days of cultivation with L-serine, but a sha
25、rp decrease was observed thereafter (from 85% down to 57%) (fig. 2). However, the decrease of ET/TR was more dramatic than TR/ABS and down to 70% after one day of cultivation. The probability that an absorbed photon will move an electron into the electron transport chain, ET/TR was 11% on 8th day. T
26、he energy fluxes were affected by the L-serine induced senescence, and a correlation can be made with the partial destruction of the light-harvesting antennas organization and the consequent difficulty of funneling the excitation energy from the incoming photon to the reaction center (RC). The decre
27、ase in ET/TR confirmed that the trapped energy did not go to the RC and was dissipated. Damages within any part of photosynthetic apparatus will block the transfer of electrons to PSI and affect the photosynthesis of the leaves. 020406080100120012345678Times(days)Percentage(%)TR/ABSET/TR050100012345

Photosynthetic performance index (PI) decreased gradually and reached zero on the 8th day of cultivation. The changing patterns of RC and ABS were basically sim

During cultivation of fronds on the medium with L-serine the capacity of Hill reaction in ch

K band at 300m was not found in fig1, which correlated with the damage of OEC 13. These data presented here suggest that the activity of OEC is less affected
32、 than the reaction center and ABS. Impressive advances in molecular biology have made access to the genome and structure of the photosynthetic organisms feasible, the JIP-test can help access the function and, thus, promote an understanding of the Structure-function relation. In practical terms, the
33、 JIP-test can be a handy tool in molecular breeding and transgenic strategies for crop improvement for stress tolerance. On the other hand, JIP-test may be used in environmental stress assessment. With JIP-test, it will be possible to trace the damage of photosynthetic apparatus and provide the info
