| Abstract | Cyclic adenosine diphosphate ribose (cADPR) is a potent endogenous calcium-mobilizing agent synthesized from NAD+ by ADP-ribosyl cyclases described for several animal cells. Pharmacological studies suggest that cADPR is an endogenous modulator of Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release channels. There is also information about the sub-micromolar concentration of cADPR in plant cells. Whether cADPR can act as a Ca2+-mobilizing intracellular messenger in plant tissue is an unresolved question. Despite the obvious importance of monitoring cADPR cellular levels under various physiological conditions in plants, its measurement has been technically difficult and requires specialized reagents. In the present study a widely applicable sensitivity assay for cADPR is described. We show that Pharbitis nil tissue from cotyledons contains a certain cADPR level. To explain the possible roles of this second messenger in photoperiodic flower induction, some physiological experiments were also performed. The exogenous applications of cADPR to Pharbitis nil plants, which were exposed to a 12-h-long subinductive night, significantly increased flowering response. Nevertheless 8-Br-cADPR inhibited flowering when these compounds were applied during a 16-h-long inductive night. The effect of ruthenium red, a calcium channel blocker and ryanodine, a calcium channel stimulator, on the photoperiodic induction of flowering was also studied. Ruthenium red, when applied before and during an inductive 16-h dark period, slightly inhibited flowering, whereas ryanodine, when applied before and during a 12-h long subinductive night, stimulated flower bud formation. We also confirmed evidence that Ca2+ ions are involved in the photoperiodic induction of flowering. Thus, the obtained results may suggest the involvement of cyclic ADPR-activated Ca2+ mobilization in the photoperiodic flower induction process in Pharbitis nil. |

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.
