Research paper thumbnail of Rapid deployment of allelochemicals in exudates of germinating seeds of Sesbania (Fabaceae): roles of seed anatomy and histolocalization of polyphenolic compounds in anti-pathogen defense of seedlings

Phenolics are located in different layers of the seed coat and in the subhilar parenchyma. We then investigated the release of these compounds by imbibing seeds of both species. The annual S. 6esicaria releases the flavonoid luteolin, with minor amounts of proanthocyanidins, whereas the perennial S. drummondii releases mostly proanthocyanidins. Types and amount of allelochemicals exuded seem related to ecology and life history traits of each species. We then showed mobilisation of these allelochemicals by histochemical sections in imbibing seeds of both species. Histological structure is similar in both species. A number of characters (lens, subhilar parenchyma, tracheid bar) appear to function together to facilitate the exudation of compounds that protect young seedlings. Furthermore, the spatial organization of these organs with interlocking function allows retrieval of defensive substances stored in the seed, and their redeployment is beneficial for seedling survival. We hypothesize that optimisation of the chemical defences allocated to the seed by the maternal parent confers a significant advantage to the seedling, whose energy is mainly committed to growth.

Research paper thumbnail of Effects of sublethal attack by a sucking insect, Hyalymenus tarsatus, on Sesbania drummondii seeds: Impact on some seed traits

Parasitism by this piercing-sucking insect reduced the resources for the future seedling and affected seed physiology, including dormancy and exudation of allelochemicals of imbibing seeds. Seeds attacked by H. tarsatus had reduced mass (20-80% reduction, depending on intensity of attack). Heavy attack led to irregular shape, changes in seed coat color, and disruption of dormancy. While intact seeds did not imbibe during a 48-hour test in water, a high proportion of bug-attacked seeds germinated, from 51 to 94%, depending on intensity of attack. Attack by H. tarsatus also affected accumulation of allelochemicals and their exudation by imbibing seeds. There were no quantitative differences in proanthocyanidin content between exudates of attacked and unattacked seeds. In contrast, concentrations of total condensed ta...
