Abstract: |
In attempt to study physiologic responses of Vicia faba L.to salt-alkali stress, seedlings of Vicia faba L. were treated with three different eombinations of salts, KCl/NaCl, KCl/Na2CO3,KCI/Na2SO4, for 2 weeks. The fresh weight of seedlings and malondialdehyde(MDA) were then measured, and free proline contents and antioxidant enzymes activity of leaf were further analyzed. The results indicated that with extensions of stress time, malondialdehyde(MDA) and free proline contents were increased, while the freshweight of seedlings was increased at first and then decreased. Free proline contents increased sharply at 11 days of stress. Activities of four antioxidant enzymes, superoxide disrutase(SOD), peroxidase(POD), catalase(CAT), ascorbate peroxidase(APX), were increased at first, were then decreased. At 11 days of stress, order of the activity increments of these four antioxidant enzymes was SOD>CAT>APX or POD. In conclusion, SOD played critical role in the
response of Vicia faba L. to salt-alkali stress, and free
proline an important osmotic substance. |
