1 AMINO ACIDS IN THE NUTRITION OF EXCISED TOMATO ROOTS PHILIP R. WHITE (WITH FIVE FIGURES) Introduction A preliminary study of the growth-promoting materials obtainable from yeast and essential for the nutrition of excised tomato roots (10) has shown that all of these materials are soluble in 85 per cent. ethyl alcohol, insoluble in ether, and stable in boiling trichloroacetic acid. They can be further divided into two fractions by extracting with absolute alcohol. Both fractions are essential for satisfactory growth. The present paper deals with results of an analysis of that fraction which is soluble in 85 per cent. alcohol and insoluble in 100 per cent. alcohol and ether. The basic nutrients, cultural methods, and materials used have been the same as those previously described. As was stated in the earlier report, the material soluble in 85 per cent. alcohol contains, in addition to many unknown substances, a very considerable amount of free amino acid. OSBORNE and WAKEMAN (7) give the total N content of a similarly prepared fraction, soluble in 80 per cent. alcohol, as 6.5 per cent. of the total yeast N or 12 per cent. of the weight of the fraction. They do not report the amino nitrogen content. About 3.5 per cent. of the total weight of this fraction, or 29 per cent. of its total N, has been found by the present writer to be amino nitrogen (van Slyke method). Between 20 per cent. and 25 per cent. of the fraction is, therefore, amino acid. As was suggested in the earlier paper, this high amino acid content obviously suggests that this constituent may play an important part in bringing about the growth-promoting activity of the fraction. As a check on this possibility an aqueous extract of yeast was shaken for one-half hour in an atmosphere of NO2 at ph 3.0, adjusted to ph 5.6, and its growth-promoting properties tested. The effectiveness was found to be completely destroyed. One of the primary effects of this treatment is deaminiation, although such treatment is too drastic to furnish an unequivocal diagnosis. This observation supports the presumption that the amino acids might be important factors in producing the effectiveness of the fraction. It seemed desirable, therefore, to determine in some detail the effects of commonly occurring amino acids on growth of these roots. Experimentation EFFECTS OF KNOWN AMINO ACIDS ON GROWTH In a preliminary survey, 19 nutrients were made up, each one containing ing the usual salts and carbohydrate but with a single amino acid taking the 793

2 794 PLANT PHYSIOLOGY place of accessory organic material. Amino acids were obtained from two sources, as follows: From Dr. C. S. MARVEL, University of Illinois, 1-cystine, 1-tyrosine, dl-valine, dl-isoleucine, dl-norleucine, dl-methionine, dl-phenylalanine, dl-lysine-2hcl. From Pfanstiehl Chemical Co., Waukegan, Illinois, glycine, d-arginine, I-leucine, 1-tryptophane, I-proline, 1-hydroxyproline, l-histidine-hcl, 1-aspartic acid, d-glutamic acid, dl-serine, dl-alanine. Hydroxy-glutamic acid, citrulline, and ROSE's a-amino-f3-hydroxy-n-butyric acid (1) were not available for study. A concentration of 5 mg. of amino acid per liter of nutrient (5 p.p.m.) was first tested. This was slightly less than the total weight of amino acids (8 mg.) shown by MEISENHEIMER to be present (2) in what has been determined to be the optimal concentration of yeast (10). The results are shown in figure 1.

Under these conditions glycine gave results almost equal to the control. Optimal concentrations were then determined individually for each acid. For this purpose, each was- tested at concentrations of 50, 15, 5, 1.5, 0.5, 0.15, and 0 mg. per liter of nutrient. Isoleucine, norleucine, methionine, serine, and arginine, which gave regularly increasing growth rates with decreasing, concentration throughout this range, with the optimal growth better than the controls, were tested at additional concentrations of 0.05 and mg. per

This series included about 3000 individual cultures so that it was necessary to run them in 10 consecutive sets, each with a separate set of controls. In order to facilitate comparison of the sets within this series with one another, the results have been expressed as percentages of the controls. The results are shown in table I. All amino acids studied proved to be depressant at 50 mg. per liter (50 p.p.m.). Alanine, valine, hydroxyproline, and norleucine were quite definitely so. Tryptophane and alanine were depressant at all concentrations studied. Tyrosine was apparently not beneficial at any concentration tested. Valine, histidine, serine, phenyl-alanine, methionine, cystine, leucine, norleucine, arginine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, proline, and hydroxyproline showed slight stimulation at some point in the concentration range investigated. Glycine, lysine, and isoleucine were markedly stimulating at favorable concentrations. The optimal concentrations varied from 15 p.p.m. in the case of glutamic and aspartic acids down to 0.05 p.p.m. in the case of isoleucine. A typical series of results is shown in figure 2 (glycine). From these data an amino acid mixture having the provisional constitution shown in the first column of table II was chosen for study. MEISEN-

Histogram showing total increments obtained in a week 's time in nutrients containing various concentrations of glycine, without other accessory material. HEIMER has studied in detail the nitrogenous constituents of hydrolyed yeast (2, 3). Although his figures are much higher than would be the case for an alcohol extract, it is clear that such an extract could never contain more of any amino acid than he has indicated. His figures have, therefore, been recalculated to give comparable units and are presented for comparison. The last column of the table is of especial interest. In most cases the experimentally determined optimum concentration for nutrition of isolated tomato root-tips did not differ widely from the amounts actually found in a hydrolyed yeast extract. But the optimal amounts found for glycine, cystine, glutamic acid, and aspartic acid were so much higher than can possibly be present in yeast (MEISENHEIMER, see table II) that some explanation would seem necessary. It is to be noted that three of these-glycine, glutamic acid, and aspartic acid-are not among the nine amino acids recognied by ROSE (8, 9) as essential for animals. It seemed possible that in a complete mixture these three might prove to be partially or wholly interchangeable with some of the other amino acids. However, it is to be remembered that MUELLER (5) found diphtheria bacilli to require one of these, glutamic acid, in unexpectedly large amounts. On the basis of the information contained in the data presented above, an amino acid mixture was prepared containing 15 mg. each of glutamic acid

Since this was about 7 times the total amount of amino acid contained in the optimal concentration of yeast (MEISENHEIMER, 2) and since concentrations, both relative and absolute, have repeatedly proved of great importance, the mixture was tested at 1, 0.3, 0.1, 0.03, and 0.01 times this concentration. The results are shown in figure 3. As was the case with single amino acids, a concentration of 50 mg. per liter was quite depressant, the optimum lying at about 15 mg. per liter, one-third the concentration originally chosen. As has already been suggested, the importance of many of the amino acids used above, especially in the presence of the other amino acids, was subject to considerable doubt, since it is known that in animal nutrition cer-

Effects on growth of various concentrations of a mixture containing 16 amino acids (see text). tain acids may substitute for one another (ROSE, et al.). It thus seemed probable that some of these amino acids, which when taken singly proved to be beneficial, might nevertheless be unnecessary for optimal growth. To test this, a series of cultures was made, in each of which one amino acid was employed at 10, 1, 0.1, and 0 times the concentration (one-third that shown in table II) found to be optimal in the last experiment, while all other amino acids were present at the optimal concentrations. This test involved 64 combinations, 1280 cultures. In each set of cultures a solution containing all amino acids except the one under examination was used as control. The results, given as percentages of these controls are presented in table III. It will be seen from the table that of the 16 amino acids which have a stimulating effect at some concentration when taken alone, 7 fail to exert such an effect when in the presence of all the others. These 7 are glycine, aspartic acid, hydroxyproline, cystine, methionine, arginine, and norleucine. Reference to table II will show that of these, 3-glycine, cystine and aspartic acid-were among those which, when taken singly, gave optimum results at concentrations greater than those existing in the optimal concentration of yeast. It seems probable that the originally observed effects of these 3 (table

A fourth amino acid, methionine, discarded by this process, is known to be a common contaminant in commercial preparations of leucine (MUELLER, 6) and was possibly supplied in the requisite amount in this material. Of the 4 acids giving aberrant results (table II), only glutamic acid remains as apparently essential sui generis. Using diphtheria bacilli, MUELLER likewise found the optimal concentration of glutamic acid to be abnormally high. If the acids found to be essential for rats (ROSE, 9), for diphtheria bacilli (MUELLER, 5), and for tomato roots (this work) are tabulated, the very close correspondence between the three sets is evident. Only two amino acids-proline and serine-present in the list developed for tomato root-tips are not present in either RoSE'S or MUELLER'S lists. Four acids-cystine, methionine, glycine, and tryptophane-are to be found in one or both of these lists but not in the present one. Tryptophane alone, of those found essential by both RoSE and MUELLER, has under no circumstances appeared 799

In view of its close chemical relationship to heteroauxin, which is known to have a depressant effect on root growth, tryptophane may have a place which is unique. Further study will be required before its true position can be considered established.

Glycine -Methionine A provisional amino acid mixture which appeared to be complete and possibly optimal then contained: -5 mg. of glutamic acid, 1.5 mg. each of phenyl-alanine, lysine, and histidine, 0.5 mg. of proline, 0.15 mg. of valine, 0.05 mg. of serine, mg. of leucine, and mg. of isoleucine per liter of nutrient. The total amino acid content of this mixture was mg. per liter. Since such an amino acid mixture was developed in the hope of replacing therewith the fraction of yeast soluble in 85 per cent. ethyl alcohol but insoluble in 100 per cent. alcohol, a series of cultures was carried out using this mixture together with a 100 per cent. alcohol extract of yeast in amount equivalent to the standard amount of whole yeast regularly used as control. The results are shown in figures 4 and 5. Such a mixture of amino acids, when added to the yeast material soluble in absolute alcohol, is adequate for the maintenance of continuous growth for at least three passages, at a level equal to or nearly equal to that obtained with whole yeast. The entire effect of the yeast material soluble in 85 per cent. alcohol but insoluble in absolute alcohol, insofar as it can be observed in this way, is then to be attributed to its amino a;cid content.

Further extraction with 100 per cent. alcohol segregates two fractions, both of which are necessary for satisfactory growth. Data have been presented in this paper which show that the fraction which is soluble in 85 per cent. alcohol, but insoluble in 100 per cent. alcohol and ether, may be replaced by a mixture of 9 amino acids without appreciably reducing the growth rate. The amino acid content of this fraction appears to be entirely responsible for its growthpromoting effect, at least so far as the requirements of isolated tomato roottips are concerned. Such a mixture contains the following: glutamic acid, lysine, histidine, phenyl-alanine, leucine, isoleucine, valine, serine, and proline. All other amino acids appear to be unessential under the conditions of the experiment reported. The fraction soluble in 100 per cent. alcohol remains to be identified.
