| Abstract/Contents: | "Leaf senescence is characterized by decreased chlorophyll content in leaves. The objectives of this study were to determine whether heat-induced chlorophyll decline is due to inhibited chlorophyll synthesis or accelerated chlorophyll degradation and to determine whether genetic variations in heat tolerance of bentgrass (Agrostis spp.) species were associated with differential chlorophyll-enzymatic responses to heat stress. Five turfgrass lines, including two transgenic creeping bentgrass (A. stolonifera L.) lines overexpressing isopentenyl transferase (ipt) gene ligated to a senescence-activated promoter (SAG12) or heat shock promoter (HSP18.2) for controlling cytokinin synthesis, two thermal bentgrass (A. scabra Willd.) lines, and a wild-type (WT) creeping bentgrass ('Penncross') were subjected to heat (38/33°C, day/night) or optimal temperature (22/18°C, day/night) (nonstress) for 42 d in growth chambers. The physiological parameters of turf quality, chlorophyll content, chlorophyll index, and dark green color index were measured. The data suggested significant genetic variations in the level of heat-induced leaf senescence among the bentgrass lines. The enzyme activity of a key chlorophyll-synthesizing enzyme, porphobilinogen deaminase, did not differ significantly across all the lines after 42 d of heat stress. The activities of chlorophyll-degrading enzymes, including chlorophyllase and chlorophyll-degrading peroxidase, increased significantly after heat stress, whereas pheophytinase activity was unchanged. Heat-tolerant transgenic lines and thermal bentgrass maintained significantly lower activities of chlorophyll-degrading enzymes than the WT under heat stress. Heat-induced chlorophyll loss in bentgrass could be mainly due to accelerated chlorophyll degradation. Selecting for low chlorophyll degradation enzyme activity will help to facilitate the development of elite stay-green bentgrass lines." |
