Day and night temperature responses in Arabidopsis: effects on gibberellin and auxin content, cell size, morphology and flowering time.

ABSTRACT: The effect of 16 different day (DT) and night (NT) temperature combinations (DT and NT 12, 17, 22 and 27 degrees C) on rosette leaf growth, flower stem elongation and flowering time in Arabidopsis thaliana Ler was investigated. Final leaf length decreased with increasing NT due to a combination of reduced elongation period and reduced elongation rate. Final stem length increased with increasing DT due to increased elongation rate, and decreased with increasing NT due to a decrease in elongation period. Under NT 27 degrees C, however, stem elongation rate increased greatly, resulting in the same final stem length as under NT 12 degrees C. The transition to flowering was accelerated by increasing NT. A linear regression analysis was performed to clarify the relationship between final leaf length, final stem length and flowering time with DIF (DT minus NT) and/or ADT (average daily temperature). For all three variables, the effect of DIF depended on ADT and vice versa. The relationship of final stem length with DIF also depended on the temperature range. Increased cell volume in flower stems developing at DT/NT 22/12 degrees C gave rise to longer and thicker stems compared with stems developing at DT/NT 12/22 degrees C. GC-MS analysis (gas chromatography-mass spectrometry) showed that the endogenous level of IAA was 56 % higher in stems grown under DT/NT 22/12 degrees C compared with DT/NT 12/22 degrees C. Of the 12 gibberellins analysed, however, only the level of non-bioactive GA29 was affected by the temperature treatment.

Project description:Since insertion into orbit on December 7, 2015, the Akatsuki orbiter has returned global images of Venus from its four imaging cameras at eleven discrete wavelengths from ultraviolet (283 and 365 nm) and near infrared (0.9-2.3 µm), to the thermal infrared (8-12 µm) from a near-equatorial orbit. The Venus Express and Pioneer Venus Orbiter missions have also monitored the planet for long periods but from polar or near-polar orbits. The wavelength coverage and views of the planet also differ for all three missions. In reflected light, the images reveal features seen near the cloud tops (~ 70 km altitude), whereas in the near-infrared images of the nightside, features seen are at mid- to lower cloud levels (~ 48-60 km altitude). The dayside cloud cover imaged at the ultraviolet wavelengths shows morphologies similar to what was observed from Mariner 10, Pioneer Venus, Galileo, Venus Express and MESSENGER. The daytime images at 0.9 and 2.02 µm also reveal some interesting features which bear similarity to the ultraviolet images. The nighttime images at 1.74, 2.26 and 2.32 µm and at 8-12 µm reveal features not seen before and show new details of the nightside including narrow wavy ribbons, curved string-like features, long-scale waves, long dark streaks, isolated bright spots, sharp boundaries and even mesoscale vortices. Some features previously seen such as circum-equatorial belts (CEBs) and occasional areal brightenings at ultraviolet (seen in Venus Express observations) of the cloud cover at ultraviolet wavelengths have not been observed thus far. Evidence for the hemispheric vortex organization of the global circulation can be seen at all wavelengths on the day- and nightsides. Akatsuki images reveal new and puzzling morphology of the complex nightside cloud cover. The cloud morphologies provide some clues to the processes occurring in the atmosphere and are thus, a key diagnostic tool when quantitative dynamical analysis is not feasible due to insufficient information.
