EMF radiations (1800 MHz)-inhibited early seedling growth of maize (Zea mays) involves alterations in starch and sucrose metabolism

掲載誌: Protoplasma 2016; 253 (4): 1043-1049

この研究は、トウモロコシ(Zea mays)芽苗の成長およびデンプン、ショ糖、リン加水分解酵素の活性に対する1800MHz電磁界放射EMF)の影響を調べた。トウモロコシ芽苗にばく露したEMFは、一様な変調連続波で、SARは0.169W/kgである。0.5、1、2、4時間のばく露を行い、その7日後の芽苗を分析した。その結果、短時間のばく露は何ら有意な変化を引き起こさなかったが、4時間ばく露は成長および生化学的指標に有意な変化を引き起こした;具体的には、根および子葉鞘の長さの短縮、特に子葉鞘長は23%と顕著な短縮が見られた;無ばく露群に比べ、4時間ばく露群では光合成色素量が13%、総炭水化物量が18%減少した;同じくデンプン加水分解酵素のα-およびβ-アミラーゼ活性が無ばく露群よりそれぞれ92および94%上昇した、などを報告している。

研究目的(著者による)

The effects of exposure of maize seedlings to a 1800 MHz electromagnetic field on growth and the carbohydrate metabolism should be investigated.

詳細情報

After germination, seedlings were divided into the following groups: exposure to the electromagnetic field for 1) 30 minutes, 2) 1 hour, 3) 2 hours, 4) 4 hours and 5) no exposure (control group). Each group consisted of 5 petri dishes with 10 seedlings each (n=50 seedlings in total). All seedlings were further cultivated after exposure and investigated after 7 days.

研究の主なアウトカム(著者による)

After 4 hours of exposure, the length of roots and coleoptiles as well as the chlorophyll content were significantly reduced compared to the control group (group 5).
The carbohydrate and reducing sugar contents were significantly increased after 1 hour of exposure or more (groups 2, 3 and 4) compared to the control group.
The enzyme activities of α-amylase, β-amylases and invertases were significantly increased in groups 2,3 and 4 compared to the control group, whereas the enzyme activity of the starch phosphorylases was significantly decreased at the same time. No distinct trend was observed in the enzyme activities of the phosphatases.
In all parameters, a tendency towards enhanced effects with increasing exposure duration was observed.
The authors conclude that exposure of maize seedlings to a 1800 MHz electromagnetic field could interfere with growth and the carbohydrate metabolism.
