Effect of Exogenous D-Alanine on D-Alanyl-D-alanine Content in Leaf Blades of Oryza australiensis Domin

Hisashi Manabe

Aizu Junior College of Fukushima Prefecture Aizuwakamatsu, Fukushima 965, Japan

In seedlings of Oryza australiensis Domin (W0008), most of the D-alanyl-D-alanine was distributed in the leaf blades. In excised leaf blades of W0008, exogenous D-alanine was incorporated into D-alanyl-D-alanine irrespective of the light condition as in Sasanishiki. With cultivation in D-alanine medium for several days, the D-alanyl-D-alanine content in W0008 leaf blades was found to increase, but no other D-alanine-containing dipeptides such as D-alanylglycine or D-alanyl-L-alanine were detected
