Abstract
The identification of several fructan exohydrolases (FEHs, EC 3.2.1.80) in non-fructan accumulating plants raised the question of their roles. FEHs may be defense-related proteins involved in the interactions with fructan-accumulating microorganisms. Since known defense-related proteins are upregulated by defense-related phytohormones, we tested the hypothesis that FEHs of non-fructan accumulating plants are upregulated by salicylic acid (SA), jasmonic acid (JA) and ethylene (ET) using the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana and the agronomically relevant and genetically related species Brassica napus. By sequence homologies with the two known FEH genes of A. thaliana, At6-FEH, and At6&1-FEH, the genes coding for the putative B. napus FEHs, Bn6-FEH and Bn6&1-FEH, were identified. Plants were treated at root level with SA, methyl jasmonate (MeJA) or 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC). The transcript levels of defense-related and FEH genes were measured after treatments. MeJA and ACC did not upregulate FEHs, while HEL (HEVEIN-LIKE PREPROTEIN) expression was enhanced by both phytohormones. In both species, the expression of AOS, encoding a JA biosynthesis enzyme, was enhanced by MeJA and that of the defensine PDF1.2 and the ET signaling transcription factor ERF1/2 by ACC. In contrast, SA not only increased the expression of genes encoding antimicrobial proteins (PR1 and HEL) and the defense-related transcription factor WRKY70 but also that of FEH genes, in particular 6&1-FEH genes. This result supports the putative role of FEHs as defense-related proteins. Genotypic variability of SA-mediated FEH regulation (transcript level and activities) was observed among five varieties of B. napus, suggesting different susceptibilities toward fructan-accumulating pathogens.

Abstract
Sixteen isolates of Claviceps spp. were analyzed for the production of polysaccharides, oligosaccharides, and sucrose metabolism under conditions of submerged fermentation. Physiological markers calculated by the Verhulst-Pearl law were used for hierarchical cluster analysis. Low correlation was found between physiologically based dendrogram and phylogenetic analysis constructed from an alignment of rDNA sequences. To confirm the intraspecific uniformity of physiological markers three isolates of C. africana from different hosts and locations were included. The influence of genotype, physiological variability, environmental location and habitat on metabolite production is discussed.

Abstract
Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum var. Havana Seed) leaf discs were allowed to photosynthesize for 3 to 20 minutes in the presence of (14)CO(2) and (3)H(2)O. Several metabolites of the Calvin cycle and photorespiratory pathway were isolated and purified and the (3)H:(14)C values measured. Glycolate had a 5- to 10-fold higher (3)H:(14)C than the Calvin cycle intermediate 3-phosphoglyceric acid, or its end product sucrose. The glycolate oxidase inhibitor alpha-hydroxy-2-pyridinemethanesulfonic acid caused glycolate to accumulate in the tissue and lowered the (3)H:(14)C in glycolate to a value similar to that in 3-phosphoglyceric acid. Phosphoglycolate, a possible precursor of glycolate arising from the Calvin cycle, exhibited a (3)H:(14)C value similar to 3-phosphoglyceric acid under all conditions. The finding of a (3)H enrichment in glycolate suggests that another source of glycolate, possibly the reduction of glyoxylate, exists in leaf tissue. Analyses of incorporation of (3)H into the pro-2R and pro-2S hydrogens of glycolate, in the presence and absence of alpha-hydroxy-2-pyridinemethanesulfonic acid, suggest an alternative source of glycolate. Biochemical mechanisms to account for (3)H enrichment into glycolate are evaluated.
