Determination of Heat Killing Temperature of Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.)

알팔파(Medicago sativa L.)의 치사온도 결정

Abstract

To determine lethal temperature of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L. cv Vernal) at heat-stressed conditions, seedlings grown in a small pots for 4 weeks were subjected to different temperature regimes of heat treatment. No apparent demage was observed when the plants were treated at 45, 50 or $60^{\circ}C$ for 1 h. Heat treatments at 60 and $65^{\circ}C$ for 1 h, several plants were withered and showed damage symptom on their leaves. When the plants were exposed to $70^{\circ}C$ for 1 h, most of leaves were severely withered, but it was not lethal conditions for the whole plants. By contrast, most of plants were died within one day after heat treatment at $80^{\circ}C$ for 1h. Furthermore, plants exposed to $80^{\circ}C$ for 50 min were also died within 7 days. It was found that new shoots were regenerated from the plants that had been treated at $80^{\circ}C$ within 45 min. These results indicate that heat treatment at $80^{\circ}C$ for 50 min is an optimum condition to distinguish the lethality of alfalfa plants. Simple viability assay system established in this study will be useful fer selection and characterization of heat-tolerant transgenic alfalfa plants.

알팔파(Medicago sativa L.)의 치사온도를 결정하기 위하여, "Vernal" 품종을 시험재료로 하여 종자를 Petri dish에서 발아시켜 작은 화분에 10 개체씩 이식, 생장실에서 4주간 재배하였다. 45, 50 및 $55^{\circ}C$에서 처리한 경우에는 60분간 처리했을 때에도 거의 식물체 손상이 없었다. 6$0^{\circ}C$에서 60분간 처리했을 때에는 잎이 약간 시든 듯한 현상이 있었으나 식물체의 손상은 거의 없는 상태였으며, $65^{\circ}C$에서 60분간 처리했을 때에도 $60^{\circ}C$에서 처리한 결과와 마찬가지로 심한 손상은 받지 않았다. $70^{\circ}C$에서 60분간 처리했을 때에 알팔파는 일부에서 잎만 조금 마른 현상이 나타났으나, 치사온도에는 도달하지 않았다. $80^{\circ}C$에서 처리한 결과에서는 처리 후 1일 이내에 60분 처리에서 거의 죽어가는 현상이 나타났다. 처리 후 7일에는 50분 처리에서 모두 죽었으며, 45분 이하의 처리에서는 새로운 shoot가 재생됨을 확인하였다. 결론적으로 알팔파의 치사온도는 $80^{\circ}C$에서 50분 처리하는 것으로 결정되었다.것으로 결정되었다.
