Effects of absorbed radioactive sulfur (S35) in plant cell.(III) Effects of temperatures on amylase activity and growth of rye seedlings grown in solution of S35

식물에 미치는 방사성 동위원소 S35의 영향에 대하여 (제3보) 발아호밀의 Amylase Activity 및 생장에 미치는 온도의 영향에 대하여

The effects of the different temperatures on the amylase activity and growth rate of the rye seedling grown in the solutions containing radioactive sulfur- 35 were studied. The amylase activity of the coleoptiles obtained from the seedlings grown in the solutions of S-35, at 14$^{\circ}C$, appeared to be strongly stimulated in comparison to the control, but the culture temperatures of 22$^{\circ}C$ and 3$0^{\circ}C$ showed the decrease in the amylase activity. The amylase activity of the grains treated with the low intensity of the ratioactive material didn't show clear changes, at any culture temperatures, but the amylase activity of the grains treated with the high intensity of S-35, 50$\mu$c, showed definite decline at the elevated culture temperature, 3$0^{\circ}C$. Similar effects was also found in the growth of the seedlings. However, we would consider the effects of the radioactive materials on the acticity of the amylase and the growth of the seedlings are resulted from the accumulation of the much amount of the radioactive materials, and this accumulation rate depends upon actually the elevation of the culture temperature.
