    Abstract

    Quantitative proteome analyses of meristematic and nonmeristematic tissues from Medicago truncatula primary and lateral roots and meristem tissues from plants treated with acetohydroxyacid synthase-inhibiting herbicides were made. The accumulation of 81 protein spots changed in meristematic and nonmeristematic tissues and 51 protein spots showed significant changes in accumulation in herbicide-treated meristems. Identified proteins indicate two trends, (i) increased accumulation of cell division and redox-mediating proteins in meristems compared to nonmeristematic tissues and (ii) increased accumulation of pathogenesis-related and decreased accumulation of metabolic proteins in herbicide-treated roots.
