What is Protease Inhibitors Suppressed Leaf Senescence in Creeping Bentgrass Exposed to Heat Stress in Association with Inhibition of Protein Degradation Into Free Amino Acids about?
Heat-induced leaf senescence may be related to protein hydrolysis into amino acids due to increased protease enzyme activities. Protease inhibitors may delay heat-induced leaf senescence and improve stay-green qualities in cool-season, perennial plants that are sensitive to high temperatures. The objectives of this study included examining whether exogenous application of protease inhibitors in the cysteine, serine, or aspartic classes may suppress heat-induced leaf senescence in the heat-sensitive grass species, creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera) and determining whether their effects on heat tolerance are associated with alterations in protein degradation and amino acid metabolism. Creeping bentgrass plants (cv. Penncross) were exposed to heat stress (35/30 °C, day/night) or non-stress control (22/18 °C, day/night) temperatures for 35 d in environment-controlled growth chambers and were foliar-sprayed weekly with 1 μM leupeptin, 10 μM aprotinin, or 10 μM pepstatin A. Turf quality was significantly higher from 14 to 35 d of heat stress in leupeptin-or pepstatin A-treated plants and from 14 to 28 d of heat stress in aprotinin-treated plants. Photochemical efficiency was signi
