Description:
Java citronella suffers from chlorosis of the younger leaves, particularly in tropical climatic conditions. An Fe-efFicient genotype of this species was grown in Solutions containing 0 to 44.80 g(Fe) m'^ in controlled glasshouse conditions. In comparison with normál Fe nutrition (5.60 g m"^), low (0 - 1.40 g m'^) or high (22.40 - 44,80 g m*^) iron nutrition influenced fresh and dry matter yield, plant height, total essential oil and citronellol contents, chlorophyll (Chl) content, net photosynthetic and transpiration rates, and Fe uptake. Largest differences were found in saccharide and Chl a and h contents and Chl a/h ratio, and stomatal resistance. Significarít positive correlations were observed between fresh matter, citronellol content, dry and fresh matter yields and total essential oil content.

Description:
Spearmint cultivars MSS-5, Arka, and Neera grown in nutrient culture in controlled conditions differed in plant height, number of tillers, internodal position, fresh mass, dry mass, leaf stem ratio, and chlorophyll contents. Initial transpiration rate, stomatal conductivity, and CO2 exchange rate showed better increase in MSS-5 genotype. Mn stress decreased oil content whereas the content of oil constituent carvone increased in MSS-5 and Arka. and P. Singh, A. Misra, N. K. Srivastava.

Description:
Genotypic variations were observed among 6 variants and an indigenous one as a control. An efficient genotype OCD(L) of Ocimum sanctum had the greatest content of chlorophylls [2.15 g kg-1(FM)], Chl a/b ratio of 1.86, net photosynthetic rate of 0.72 mg(CO2) m-2 s-1, and 1.56 % oil formation. Methyl chavicol formed 50.31 % of total oil in OSP-6 genotype, which had also maximum peroxidase activity [ΔOD 2.4 mg-1(protein)] and maximum production of eugenol (30.44 % of total oil). We found an oxido-reducible reaction of peroxidase and high bands of peroxidase isoenzymes in this OSP-6 genotype for the formation of monoterpene essential oil(s) and possibly the major constituents of eugenol through the high production of photosynthates. and A.

Language:
Multiple languages
Description:
Changes in the utilization pattern of primary substrate, viz. [U-14C] acetate, 14CO2 and [U-14C] saccharose, and the contents of 14C fixation products in photosynthetic metabolites (sugars, amino acids, and organic acids) were determined in Fe-deficient citronella in relation to the essential oil accumulation. There was an overall decrease in photosynthetic efficiency of the Fe-deficient plants as evidenced by lower levels of incorporation into the sugar fraction and essential oil after 14CO2 had been supplied. When acetate and saccharose were fed to the Fe-deficient plants, despite a higher incorporation of label into sugars, amino acids, and organic acids, there was a lower incorporation of these metabolites into essential oils than in control plants. Thus, the availability of precursors and the translocation to a site of synthesis/accumulation, severely affected by Fe deficiency, is equally important for the essential oil biosynthesis in citronella. and N.

Language:

Description:
Partitioning of current photosynthates towards primary metabolites and its simultaneous incorporation in leaf alkaloids was investigated in developing leaves of medicinally important Catharanthus roseus. Of the total 14CO2 assimilated, the leaves at positions 1-6 fixed 8, 22, 25, 19, 13, and 8 %, respectively, and stem 3 %. Leaf fresh mass, chlorophyll content, and CO2 exchange rate increased up to the third leaf. The total alkaloid content was highest in young actively growing leaves, which declined with age. Total 14C fixed and its content in ethanol soluble fraction increased up to the third leaf and then declined. The 14C content in primary metabolites such as sugars and organic acids was also highest in the 3rd leaf. The utilization of 14C assimilates into alkaloids was maximum in youngest leaf which declined with leaf age. Hence the capacity to synthesize alkaloids was highest in young growing leaves and metabolites from photosynthetic pathway were most efficiently utilized and incorporated into alkaloid biosynthetic pathway by young growing leaves. and N.

Description:
Culturing geranium at different doses of Zn from 0-1.0 g m-3 (Zn0 to Zn1.000) revealed that Zn is an antioxidant promoter, apart from its micronutrient essentiality. Zn0.250 was the critical concentration for maximum content (0.21 %) of total essential monoterpene oil(s). At Zn0.005-Zn0.250, net photosynthetic rate, and contents of chlorophyll and essential monoterpene oil(s) were affected. The maximum peroxidase activity was obtained at Zn0.250, with the production of biomolecule geraniol. We found an oxido-reducible reaction of Zn in the formation of monoterpene essential oil(s) and possibly major constituents of geraniol. and A. Misra ... [et al.].
