Do polyamines alter the sensitivity of lichens to nitrogen stress?
The sensitivity of lichens measuring photosynthetic efficiency and polyamines as modulator of nitrogen stress tolerance was investigated. Two lichen species with a markedly different tolerance to nitrogen compounds, namely Evernia prunastri (L.) Ach. and Xanthoria parietina (L.) Th.Fr., were incubat...

description | The sensitivity of lichens measuring photosynthetic efficiency and polyamines as modulator of nitrogen stress tolerance was investigated. Two lichen species with a markedly different tolerance to nitrogen compounds, namely
Evernia prunastri (L.) Ach. and
Xanthoria parietina (L.) Th.Fr., were incubated with deionized water (control) and solutions of KNO
3, NH
4NO
3 and (NH
4)
2SO
4 and then exposed to different light conditions. The
F
v/
F
m parameter (maximum quantum efficiency of photosystem II) was used as stress indicator. The results showed that
F
v/
F
m values, in the produced experimental conditions, were independent from the light gradient. Photosynthetic efficiency of
E. prunastri was impaired by high ammonium concentrations, while nitrate had no effect;
X. parietina was hardly influenced by nitrogen compounds. External supply of polyamines reduced the sensitivity of
E. prunastri, while polyamine inhibitors reduced the tolerance of
X. parietina to NH
4
+, suggesting that polyamines play an important role in modulating the sensitivity/tolerance to nitrogen stress. |
