Main scientific achievements: |
Scientific- research works carried out by Huseynova I.M. was basically
focus on the study of mechanisms of synthesis, assembly and formation of
main structural-functional components of photosynthetic apparatus of higher
plants, mainly in wheat genotypes, influence of various abiotic stress
factors on these processes, including drought, salt and light. On these
grounds, the following can be underlined:
-
Molecular-genetic mechanisms of formation and assembly of pigment-protein
complexes in photosynthetic membrane of wheat chloroplasts are
investigated in a complex manner for the first time.
-
It was
suggested that regulation of formation of PS I and II and light-harvesting
complexes in photosynthetic membrane of wheat, takes place, mainly at post
transcription level.
-
Basic
principles of assembly of Chl-protein complexes were determined during
biogenesis of photosynthetic apparatus.
-
Firstly
in wheat plants, the bands in the 20,5 to 19 and 17,5 to 15,5 kD regions
which related to early light-induced proteins (ELIP) have been observed
during the first times of greening and it is proved that they are
carotenoid-binding proteins.
-
It is
established that caretonoids play a structural and stabilizing role at the
formation and organization of chlorophyll – protein complexes of
photosynthetic membranes.
-
It is
shown that blocking of caretenoids synthesis results in full disappearance
or strong reduction of light-harvesting complexes proteins which are
encoded in a nucleus and their basic native forms.
-
It was
concluded that in the leaves of wheat in vivo there is a linkages between
genetic and protein synthesizing systems of plant cells, nuclear and
chloroplast in the formation and function of Chl-protein complexes, and
this cooperation is expressed not only in a joint assembly of its
individual (Reaction center, their minor components and light-harvesting
Chl а/б- proteins fibers), but also and in the regulation of the level of
their synthesis.
-
Molecular mechanisms of protective - adaptive processes of adaptation of
the photosynthetic apparatus of various wheat genotypes to influence to
drought and salinity are revealed and suitable parameters for selection
and estimations of resistant grades with the raised adaptive properties
are determined. Express methods for the estimation of state of the wheat
photosynthetic apparatus are developed.
