Hydrogen Sulfide Mediates ABA-induced Stomatal Closure of Vicia faba L.
Through pharmacological combined with spectrophotography to study the effects of ABA and ABA with inhibitors of H2S synthesis on stomatal closure of Vicia faba L., H2S generation and L-/D-cysteine desulfhydrase (pyridoxalphosphate dependent enzymes) activity.The results showed that AOA and NH2OH, inhibitors of pyridoxal-5 ‘-phosphate-dependent enzymes, C3H3KO3 + NH3, products of L-/D-cysteine desulfhydrase all inhibited ABA- induced stomatal closure of Vicia faba L.obviously under light condition.Treatment with ABA induced H2S generation and increased L-/D-cysteine desulfhydrase activity.AOA,NH2OH,C3H3KO3+NH3 reduced H2S generation induced by ABA and the activity increase of L-/D-cysteine desulfhydrase.Those results suggested that ABA enhanced the activity of L-/D-cysteine desulfhydrase,inducing the accumulation of H2S via L-/D-cysteine resolving, and finally induced stomatal closure of Vicia faba L..
