Abstract: |
We detected absorption and transportation of Na+, K+ in the root of Ningxia Lycium barbarum L. under NaCl stress by using non-invasive micro-test technology and atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The results showed that the root exhibited a higher capacity to induce the Na+ efflux compared with that of control. The higher the concentration of NaCl, the more Na+ accumulated in the root, but have no significant difference with CK. The K+ content increased first and then declined, and the Na+/K+ ratio showed the opposite trend. The longer duration of NaCl treatment, the more Na+ and K+ accumulated. At the mean time, the lower Na+ efflux and higher K+ efflux were also observed in the root compared with that of control. These results suggested that initial salt stress enhanced the salt-elicited Na+ efflux but inhibited K+ efflux to maintain the lower Na+/K+ ratio and cellular Na+/K+ homeostasis. The NaCl-induced Na+ efflux and H+ influx were inhibited by amiloride (a Na+/H+ antiporter inhibitor) or sodium orthovanadate (a plasma membrane H+-ATPase inhibitor), indicating that Na+ extrusion in the root of Ningxia Lycium barbarum L. arises from the active Na+/H+ antiporter across the plasma membrane. |
