Introduction to Plant Physiology

Metabolism Plant growth/hormones -hypothalamus-TRH-> pituitary thyrotrope -movement-water potential-cause cells to be cells-TSH-> blood-TSH-> thyroid gland-T3 &T4 different sizes in particular places -neg. feedback loop on anterior pituitary & -water potential-only negative #, high to low hypothalamus- control release of TRH & TSH potentials; osmosis; more neg.-more water in -hypothy.-iodine deficiency, low T3 & T4; -up[solutes]-down solute pot.-down water hyperthy.-high T3 &T4 pot.= H2O in cell (can expand) -goiter-excess lumen in the thyroid cells- caused -down[solutes]-up solute pot.-up water pot.= by a high amt of thyroglobulin. H2O out -hypothy.-not enough T3 & T4 produced-excess -up pressure-up pressure pot.-up water thyroglobulin builds in lumen pot.=H2O out -hyperthy.-thyroglobulin prod. inc. relative to -cell elongation rate proportional to rate of normal, more can bind to iodine, which causes cell volume inc. thyroglobulin to build in lumen -aquaporin channels-resistance -higher number of receptors-hypothalamus more -auxin transport: auxin(outside)-IN-can sensitive to inc. T3/T4 &will downregulate prod. diffuse across or AUX/LAX cotransport; in of TRH more quickly- lead to a quicker dec. in cell-ionized; OUT- PIN carriers TSH & T3/T4 -apical shoot generates auxin-transported -dec. iodine intake-low T3/T4 levels=lower from cell to cell down stem-active regions of metabolic rate;person cont. to eat cell elongation->Rhythmic elongation occurs same=accumulate mass as they will be using around stem causing circumnutation-contact Iess of energy coming in occurs btw elongating shoot & object- event -low iodine cannot bind as much thyroglobulin-> transduced into PIN protein translocation to dec. prod of T3, T4-> Missing neg. feedback of opposite side from contact and cessation of T3, T4 on TRH-> High (unregulated) TRH circumnutation-PIN protein movement causes high TSH-> High TSH levels w/ no neg causes inc. [auxin] in cells on opp side from feedback build-up in thyroid lumen and cause contact-Inc [auxin] causes inc H+ ATPase goiter activity which Inc elongation-shoot grows Plant physiology faster on side away from contact-wraps -inducible- delay before present, not reg. for around object standard fitness/l constitutive- always present - Auxin + Auxin-receptor -> Remove inhibitor -elicitors: HAMP-heribivore-asso. molecular of transcription factor for SAUR -> patterns, DAMP-damage Transcription of SAUR gene inc-> SAUR -xylem-H2O, soltns, ions// phloem-sugar, H2O, expression increases proteins -cotrans.-bring Cl- in- inc [symplastic solute] . -saliva contains elicitors recognized by plants-> dec solute potential- lowers water potential of elicitor binds to receptor-> receptor activation symplast causes formation of jasmonate(JA)-> JA travels -Calvin- carbon fixation-RUBISCO// through plasma to sieve tube, JA enters reduction- ATP/NADPH-> makes G3P (used meophyll cells in damaged shoot-(JAZ repress to make sugars)// regeneration of RuBP transcription of genes)->binding of JA to JAZ- degradation of JAZ, transcrip. occurs- creates protease inhibitor
