Publication Open Access High irradiance increases NH4+ tolerance in Pisum sativum: higher carbon and energy availability improve ion balance but not N assimilation(Elsevier, 2011-03-02) Ariz Arnedo, Idoia; Artola Rezola, Ekhiñe; Asensio, Aarón C.; Cruchaga Moso, Saioa; Aparicio Tejo, Pedro María; Morán Juez, José Fernando; Ciencias del Medio Natural; Natura Ingurunearen Zientziak; IdAB. Instituto de Agrobiotecnología / Agrobioteknologiako Institutua; Institute for Multidisciplinary Research in Applied Biology - IMABThe widespread use of NO3− fertilization has had a major ecological impact. NH4+ nutrition may help to reduce this impact, although high NH4+ concentrations are toxic for most plants. The underlying tolerance mechanisms are not yet fully understood, although they are thought to include the limitation of C, the disruption of ion homeostasis, and a wasteful NH4+ influx/efflux cycle that carries an extra energetic cost for root cells. In this study, high irradiance (HI) was found to induce a notable tolerance to NH4+ in the range 2.5–10 mM in pea plants by inducing higher C availability, as shown by carbohydrate content. This capacity was accompanied by a general lower relative N content, indicating that tolerance is not achieved through higher net N assimilation on C-skeletons, and it was also not attributable to increased GS content or activity in roots or leaves. Moreover, HI plants showed higher ATP content and respiration rates. This extra energy availability is related to the internal NH4+ content regulation (probably NH4+ influx/efflux) and to an improvement of the cell ionic balance. The limited C availability at lower irradiance (LI) and high NH4+ resulted in a series of metabolic imbalances, as reflected in a much higher organic acid content, thereby suggesting that the origin of the toxicity in plants cultured at high NH4+ and LI is related to their inability to avoid large-scale accumulation of the NH4+ ion.Publication Open Access Expression and localization of a Rhizobium-derived cambialistic superoxide dismutase in pea (Pisum sativum) nodules subjected to oxidative stress(The American Phytopathological Society, 2011-09-07) Asensio, Aarón C.; Marino Bilbao, Daniel; James, Euan K.; Ariz Arnedo, Idoia; Arrese-Igor Sánchez, César; Aparicio Tejo, Pedro María; Arredondo-Peter, Raúl; Morán Juez, José Fernando; IdAB. Instituto de Agrobiotecnología / Agrobioteknologiako Institutua; Ciencias del Medio Natural; Natura Ingurunearen ZientziakTwo phylogenetically unrelated superoxide dismutase (SOD) families, i.e., CuZnSOD (copper and zinc SOD) and FeMn-CamSOD (iron, manganese, or cambialistic SOD), eliminate superoxide radicals in different locations within the plant cell. CuZnSOD are located within the cytosol and plastids, while the second family of SOD, which are considered to be of bacterial origin, are usually located within organelles, such as mitochondria. We have used the reactive oxygen species¿producer methylviologen (MV) to study SOD isozymes in the indeterminate nodules on pea (Pisum sativum). MV caused severe effects on nodule physiology and structure and also resulted in an increase in SOD activity. Purification and N-terminal analysis identified CamSOD from the Rhizobium leguminosarum endosymbiont as one of the most active SOD in response to the oxidative stress. Fractionation of cell extracts and immunogold labeling confirmed that the CamSOD was present in both the bacteroids and the cytosol (including the nuclei, plastids, and mitochondria) of the N-fixing cells, and also within the uninfected cortical and interstitial cells. These findings, together with previous reports of the occurrence of FeSOD in determinate nodules, indicate that FeMnCamSOD have specific functions in legumes, some of which may be related to signaling between plant and bacterial symbionts, but the occurrence of one or more particular isozymes depends upon the nodule type.
