Role of Poly(ADP-Ribose) Polymerase (PARP) Enzyme in the Systemic Acquired Acclimation Induced by Light Stress in Phaseolus vulgaris L. Plants.

ABSTRACT: Plants are able to acclimate to environmental constraints through functional modifications that may also occur in tissues that are not directly exposed to stress. This process is termed "systemic acquired acclimation." The present study aims to evaluate the involvement of PolyADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) protein in the acclimation process to high light (HL) stress in Phaseolus vulgaris plants. For this purpose, some leaves located at the top of the plant, in the apical position, were directly exposed to HL ("inducing" leaves), while others on the same plant, distal from the top, continued to be exposed to growth light ("receiving" leaves) to verify the hypothesis that an "alert" message may be transferred from injured tissues to distal ones.
