Abstract/Contents: | "Variety 6, a heat tolerant creeping bentgrass (Agrostis palustris Huds.), which originated from Pencross [Penncross] through cell culture was used to study the mechanism of heat tolerance. In vivo protein synthesis was reduced in both varieties during heat shock at 40 degrees. When protein synthesis was measured during a recovery period of several hrs at 28 degrees, total protein synthesis by Variety 6 reached maximum values 1 to 2 hrs before Pencross, suggesting a faster recovery from heat shock. Both varieties sythesized a similar set of heat shock proteins (HSP); however, a 44kD hsp was present in Variety 6 in control tissue. This protein appeared in Pencross only after heat shock. The presence of the 44kd hsp as a constitutively expressed protein in Variety 6 may account for its ability to tolerate higher temperatures." |
