Activities of H2O2-Converting Enzymes in Apple Leaf Buds during Dormancy Release in Consideration of the Ratio Change between Bud Scales and Physiologically Active Tissues
Hydrogen peroxide-converting enzyme activities in leaf buds of the apple cultivar Idared during the transition from dormancy release to the ontogenetic development were investigated. For this purpose, leaf buds were collected from 26 March 2021 (DOY = day of the year 85) to 23 April 2021 (DOY 113) and the air temperature was continuously monitored. Enzyme assay protocols for catalase (CAT), intracellular peroxidase (POX), and cell wall-bound peroxidase (cwPOX) in apple leaf buds were successfully established based on published protocols. All enzymes showed considerable changes in activity during the observation period. Fluctuation in daily mean air temperatures seemed not to affect the activities of POX and CAT, whereas severe drops in daily mean air temperature may have interrupted the assumed trajectory of cwPOX activity during the stage of ontogenetic development. In addition, the importance of considering changes in the ratio between physiologically active tissues and bud scales when investigating physiological changes in buds during the phase of dormancy release and ontogenetic development is discussed. A new reference system, namely the “adjusted dry weight” [aDW], is proposed to circumvent this shift in ratios when working with scaled buds
