Observations on the fine structure of the endophyte in root nodules of alnus nitida ENDL.

Observations on the fine structure of the endophyte in root nodules of alnus nitida ENDL.
ABSTRACT:
The ultrastructure of root nodules of the Asian alder , alnus nitida , reveals that the developmental stages of the endophyte (frankia sp.) inside the nodules resemble with other actinorhize of Alnus spp. , and with pure cultures of frankia strains isolated from the same plant. The young stage of the endophyte shows hyphate which penetrate the cell wall of the conical cells and establish in the center of the cell as samified mass. The ends of the hyphate near the periphery of the host cell are swollen to form sphericsl vesicles the mature vesicles are septate, each compartment having its own nuclear material . void areas are present around the vesicles . an upper layer and a basal loose layer of the vesicle cell wall have been found inside the void area. The plants nucleus is characterized by a double porous membrane at the periphery . oncentration of mitochondria are present near the vesicles, suggesting a close association between the endophyte and the host. The possible function of the capsular material surrounding the vesicles for the protection of nitrogenase against oxygen is discissed.

Changes in isozymes shikimate dehydrogenase and peroxidase during gibberellic acid induced induction and formation of antheridium in the fern anemia phyllitidis.
Javed iqbal and helmut schraudolf

Changes in isozymes shikimate dehydrogenase and peroxidase during gibberellic acid induced induction and formation of antheridium in the fern anemia phyllitidis.
ABSTRACT:
Changes in isozymes of shikimate dehydrogenase and peroxidase were studied during the induction and formation of antheridium in anemia phyllitidis . upto six isozymic forms of shikimate dehydrogenase were detected . starting from two isozymes in dry spores the number rose to four during germination and six during antheridium formation . three isozymes of peroxidase were first detected on sixth day of development when antheridia had been formed and spermatogenesis initiated . no- qualitative differences in both of these enzymes were found in between vegetative and antheridial prothalli. The observed differences in between two treatments were quanitative , the amount of both enzymes being greater in antheridium bearing prothalli.

Studies on the inhibition by zinc of L.malate and L-glutamate dehydrogenases extracted from the roots of zinc tolerant and non tolerant clones of antheroxanthum odoratum L.

Studies on the inhibition by zinc of L.malate and L-glutamate dehydrogenases extracted from the roots of zinc tolerant and non tolerant clones of antheroxanthum odoratum L.
ABSTRACT:
In vitro studies on the inhibition of L- malate and L-glummate dehydrogenasea by zinc revealed that the two enzymes from both tolerant and non tolerant clones were equally sensitive to ImM zinc. No evidence of enzymic tolerance was found. Kinetic studies showed that the inhibitors was of mixed type and that the kinetic parameter of importance was the dissociation constant of the reaction E1=E+1(K). it

Effect of brown rust on dry matter composition and nucleic acid contents of wheat.
Shoaib ismail and soaliha ahmed

Effect of brown rust on dry matter composition and nucleic acid contents of wheat.
ABSTRACT:
Changes in dry matter composition and nucleic acid content of a wheat leaves after increased both in rust infected and fungicide-treated leaves. Fungicidal treatment had little effect on dry weight basis. No significant changes occurred in plant moisture content (PMC) whereas a substancial increase in dry matter content was observed in infected and fungicide – treated leaves . increase in RNA and DNA contents were evident 2 days after inoculation (DAI) and remained high throughout the period of investigation.
