한국형 잔디에 있어 병원성 (라지 팻치) 감염이 산화적 스트레스의 발현에 미치는 영향을 규명하기 위하여 라지 팻치에 감염된 잔디의 항산화 효소의 활성을 조사하였다. 처리 후 6일 동안 이틀간격으로 잎과 뿌리 시료에 대해 각각 분석하였다. 초기 2일 동안 SOD효소 활성은 처리 간 아무런 차이가 나타나지 않았으나 처리 후 6일차에는 대조구에 비해 라지 팻치에 감염된 잎에서 48% 뿌리에서 49% 각각 높게 나타났다. CAT 효소활성은 처리 후 2일간 잎에

한국형 잔디에 있어 병원성 (라지 팻치) 감염이 산화적 스트레스의 발현에 미치는 영향을 규명하기 위해 라지 팻치에 감염된 잔디의 생육, 뿌리 건사율, 과산화수소 농도 및 지질과산화 정도를 감염이되지 않은 대조구와 비교하였다. 처리 후 6일 동안 이틀간격으로 잎과 뿌리 시료에 대해 각각 분석하였다. 라지 팻치에 감염된 잔디 뿌리의 건사율은 대조구에 비해 약 30% 증가하였다. 건물 함량은 4일째까지는 유의적인 차이가 없었으며 6일차에서만 라지 팻치 감염에

본 연구는 환경요인의 변화, 특히 겨울철 저온이 식물체에 미치는 영향을 정량적으로 밝히기 위해, 저온감수성 식물인 문주란을 대상으로 겨울철 일주기에 있어서 항산화효소 활성과 O-J-I-P곡선의 변화를 조사하였다. 겨울철의 superoxide dismutase와 peroxidase의 활성은 여름철에 비해 다소 증가하였다. 특히, peroxidase는 겨울철 새벽과 밤에 높은 활성을 보였으며 초겨울에만 특이적으로 검출되는 isoenzyme들로 관찰할 수 있

상시담수 하에서 발아 및 안정적인 입모를 확보하는 것은 담수직파에서 매우 중요한 일이다. 일반적으로 담수 조건에 서는 유묘생장이 억제되지만, 담수 처리 시 초기생육이 우수한 익산429와 담수 처리 시 생육이 저조하며 생존율이 낮은 Woodrose 2품종에 대해 발아 및 초기생육기간 담수 처리하여 혐기대사와 관련된 ADH활성과 항산화효소들의 변화를 관찰하였다. 1. 담수 처리 시 벼는 유아만 신장하며 뿌리는 신장하지 못했고, 익산429가 Woodrose보다 담수상태에서 생존기간이 길었고 생장도 빨랐다. 그러나 무 처리에서는 Woodrose의 생육이 빨랐다. 2. ADH활성은 담수 처리 시 무 담수에 비해 급격히 증가하였고, 익산429가 Woodrose보다 활성이 오래 유지되었는데, 처리 7일째는 익산429가 무처리에 비해 약 7배, Woodrose는 약 2.5배 증가하였다. 4. SOD, POX, CAT 활성 모두 담수 처리에서 무 담수보다 낮았다. 그러나 SOD는 담수시 무 담수에 비해 크게 활성이 낮지는 않았으며 품종 간에는 익산429의 활성이 무 담수 및 담수 처리 모두 Woodrose보다 높았고 담수 시에도 익산429가 Woodrose보다 높게 유지되었다. POX 활성변화는 담수시 익산429가 지속적으로 증가한 반면 Woodrose는 큰 변화가 없었다. CAT활성은 담수 처리 초기부터 아주 낮은 활성을 보여 처리기간 동안 거의 증가하지 않았으나 무 담수시에는 3일까지 활성이 크게 증가하였다. 따라서 담수 처리 시 발아 및 초기생육기간 동안 담수내성이 약한 품종에서 SOD와 POX의 역할이 크고 ADH활성이 높게 유지되어 에너지를 공급할 수 있는 품종이 담수 시 초기생육에 유리할 것으로 사료된다.

In order to examine the cross-tolerance of two chilling-tolerant cultivars (Donganbyeo and Heukhyangbyeo) and two chilling-susceptible cultivars (Hyangmibyeo and Taekbaekbyeo) to salt, paraquat, and drought, changes of physiological response and antioxidant enzymes were investigated. The seedlings were grown in a growth chamber until the 4-leaf stage. The seedlings were exposed to chilling at 5~circC for 3 days. For drought treatment, the seedlings were subjected to drought by withholding water from plants for 5 days. For paraquat study, plants were sprayed with 300~muM paraquat. For the salt stress, the seedlings were transferred to the Hoagland's nutrient solution containing 0.6% (w/v) NaCl for 4 days. Chilling-tolerant cultivars showed cross-tolerant to other stresses, salt, paraquat, and drought in physiological parameters, such as leaf injury, chlorophyll a fluorescence, and lipid peroxidation. The baseline levels of antioxidative enzyme activities, catalase (CAT) and peroxidase (POX) activities in chilling-tolerant cultivars were higher than in the chilling-susceptible cultivars. However, there were no differences in ascorbate peroxidase (APX) and glutathione reductase (GR) activities between chilling-tolerant and -susceptible cultivars in untreated control. CAT activity in chilling-tolerant cultivars was higher than that in chilling-susceptible cultivars during chilling, salt, and drought treatments, but not during paraquat treatment. However, other antioxidative enzymes, APX, POX, and GR activities showed no significant differences between chilling-tolerant and -susceptible cultivars during chilling, salt, paraquat, and drought treatments. Thus, it was assumed that CAT contribute to cross-tolerance mechanism of chilling, salt, and drought in rice plants.

This study was carried out to investigate the antioxidative enzymes and isozymes between chilling-tolerant and -susceptible varieties at the booting stage under cold water stress (13~circC) in japonica rice. Total SOD, CAT, POX, and GR activities on the basis of protein were found to be important factors to defend cold water stress. Especially, SOD and CAT activities showed distinctive differences between chilling-tolerant and -susceptible varieties. Chilling-tolerant varieties were higher than chilling-susceptible varieties for SOD and CAT activities. One of eight isozyme bands for SOD was a inducible isoform. Three isozymes for CAT and one isozyme for POX were closely correlated with defense to cold water stress. Total GR activities except Stejaree 45 on the basis fresh weight and POX were increased by cold water stress, but there was no difference between chilling-tolerant and -sus­ceptible varieties.

In order to examine the mechanistic basis for differential sensitivities to chilling and subsequent recovery between two rice (Oryza sativa L.) cutivars, a chilling-tolerant japonica type (Ilpumbyeo) and a chilling-susceptible indica type (Taebaekbyeo), changes of physiological responses and antioxidant enzymes were investigated. Both cultivars at 3 leaf stage were exposed at a low temperature of 5~circC for 3 days and subsequently recovered in a growth chamber at a 25~circC for 5 days with 250 mmol m-2 s-1 . Physiological parameters such as leaf fresh weight, relative water content, cellular leakage, lipid peroxidation, and chlorophyll a fluorescence showed that the chilling tolerant cultivar had a high tolerance during chilling. However, the chilling-susceptible cultivar revealed severe chilling damages. The chilling-tolerant cultivar was also faster in recovery than the chilling-susceptible cultivar in all parameters examined. We analyzed the activity and isozyme profiles of four antioxidant enzymes which are: superoxide dismutase (SOD), caltalase (CAT), ascorbate peroxidase (APX), and glutation reductase (GR). We observed that chilling-tolerance was due to a result of the induced or higher antioxidant enzyme system, CAT and APX in leaves and SOD, CAT, APX, and GR in roots. Especially, we observed the most significant differences between the chilling-tolerant cultivar and -susceptible cultivar in CAT and APX activity. Also in isozyme profiles, CAT and APX band intensity in the chilling-tolerant cultivar was distinctively higher than in the chilling-susceptible cultivars during chilling and recovery. Thus, the cold stability of CAT and APX are expected to contribute to a tolerance mechanism of chilling in rice plants. In addition, the antioxidative enzymes activity in roots may be more important than in that of leaves to protect chilling damage on rice plants.

Ozone (O3 )-induced changes in chlorophyll content and specific activities of antioxidant enzymes, such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), ascorbate peroxidase (APX), guaiacol peroxidase (GPX), dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR) and glutathione reductase (GR) were investigated in two rice cultivars (Oryza sativa L.) grown under variable nutrient treatments. For this study, two rice cultivars of Ilpumbyeo (IL) and Keumobyeo#l (KM), which were known as resistant and susceptible to O3 , respectively, were exposed to O3 at 0.15ppm for 30 days and investigated with 10 days interval. The available nutrient regimes were varied by doubling the supply of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) Within a basic fertilizer status (N, P, K; 15, 12, 12kg/l0a-1 ). In both cultivars and at all nutrient status, chlorophyll content in O3 -treated plants decreased with prolonged treatment period, although higher N, P and K supply with O3 treatment alleviated the decrease in chlorophyll content. The activities of almost all enzymes investigated for this study were decreased during initial stages of O3 - exposure except GPX which maintained higher activity throughout the exposure period than the non-treated plant. However, the antioxidant enzymes in O3 -treated plants showed almost the same or higher activities on 30 days after O3 - exposure. The most significant changes in activities were observed in GR of the O3 -treated leaves. With the prolonged treatment period, the activity of GR at 30 days was increased by 3-8 times compared to those in 10 days. Most of the investigated enzymes showed very similar tendency to O3 treatment in all fertilizer status. There was no observed evidence for enhanced detoxification of O3 -derived activated oxygen species in plants grown under higher fertilizer status compared with that in plants grown under basic fertilizer status. The increase in the activities of SOD, APX and GR in rice leaves by relatively long-term treatment with O3 at low concentration is considered to indicate that the plant became adapted to the O3 stress and the protection system increased its capacity to scavenge toxic oxygen species. Our results in two rice cultivars indicated that there was little difference in the activities of antioxidant enzymes between IL and KM, which were known as resistant and susceptible cultivar to O3
