| Abstract: |
| The polyethylene glycol (PEG) was used to simulate drought to study the gemination and seedling growth of flax. The results showed that seedling was more sensitive to PEG treatment than germination. 5%0 PEG promoted sprouting，and 15% PEG were appropriate for simulating drought. Under 15%(w/v)PEG treatment，seed vigor was re-duced，mean germination index (GI)， vigor index(VI)，hypocotyl elongation and fresh weight of seedling were repressed significantly，but no consistency was found on the primary root growth; Significant increase was also found in REC，con-tent of malonaldehyde (MDA)，proline (Pro) and soluble sugar (SS) of seedling, and difference was found among prima-ry root, hypocotyl and cotyledon. |
