| Abstract | The production of mannanase, a cell-wall-degrading carbohydrase, can be manipulated in isolated lettuce (Lactuca sativa cv Grand Rapids) endosperms by changes in the volume of buffer in which they are incubated. The enzyme is produced when endosperms are incubated in a large volume, but not when incubated in a small volume, which is suggestive that an endogenous, diffusible inhibitor of mannanase production is being lost from the endosperms in a large volume (JD Bewley, P Halmer 1980/1981 Israel J Bot 29: 118-132). We have investigated the possibility that the phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) is involved in this regulation of mannanase production in isolated lettuce endosperms. We find several correlations between the presence of the endogenous inhibitor and of ABA, i.e. (a) a `leachate' prepared from isolated lettuce endosperms induces synthesis of ABA-specific proteins in barley aleurone layers, indicating that incubation of endosperms in a large volume results in the diffusion of ABA therefrom into the surrounding medium; (b) fractionation of the components of a leachate by either polyvinylpyrrolidone-chromatography of C18 reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography fails to separate the endogenous inhibitor from authentic ABA; and (c) changes in the incubation volume of endosperms result in changes in the amount of extractable ABA in the endosperms, as detected by ELISA. These results are consistent with a role for endogenous ABA in the regulation of mannanase production in isolated lettuce endosperms. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
