SA浸种对盐胁迫下小麦种子萌发和幼苗生长的影响

以小麦盐敏感品种鲁麦15为材料,研究了外源水杨酸(salicylic acid,SA)浸种对100 mmol/L NaCl胁迫下小麦种子萌发和幼苗生长的影响。研究结果表明:盐胁迫下,无论经SA浸种还是未经SA浸种,小麦幼苗的生长均受到明显抑制,干、鲜重显著下降;0.1 mmol/L、0.2 mmol/L和0.3 mmol/L SA溶液浸种均能显著缓解NaCl胁迫对小麦幼苗生长的抑制,其中以0.2 mmol/L SA溶液浸种预处理效果最好。实验中,0.2 mmol/L SA浸种可显著提高盐胁迫下小麦种子β-淀粉酶的活性和吸胀速率。此外,与未经SA浸种的盐胁迫小麦幼苗相比,0.2 mmol/L SA浸种的盐胁迫小麦幼苗整株的干、鲜重显著增加,幼苗体内Na~+含量降低,K~+含量和K~+/Na~+比值显著提高;同时,小麦幼苗叶片中超氧化物歧化酶(superoxide dismutase,SOD)、过氧化氢酶(catalase,CAT)、过氧化物酶(peroxidase,POD)活性升高,而丙二醛(MDA)含量则显著降低。由此可以得出,SA浸种能有效提高盐胁迫下小麦幼苗体内K~+/Na~+比值,提高SOD、CAT和POD的活性,减轻膜脂过氧化程度,以缓解盐胁迫对小麦幼苗生长的抑制作用,从而提高耐盐性。     

根施SA对番茄幼苗盐害损伤的修复效应

探讨根施水杨酸(SA)缓解番茄幼苗盐胁迫伤害的调节作用,为合理利用SA解决番茄栽培中的盐害问题和培育抗盐番茄品种提供科学依据。以"秦丰保冠"番茄品种幼苗为试材,在营养液栽培条件下,研究50-800μmol/L SA对100 mmol/L NaCl胁迫下番茄幼苗生长、叶绿素含量、气体交换参数、叶绿素荧光参数、膜脂过氧化及抗氧化酶活性的影响。结果显示,盐胁迫下,不同浓度SA处理的番茄幼苗生长抑制均能得到有效缓解,同时叶片叶绿素含量、光合速率(Pn)、气孔导度(Gs)、蒸腾速率(Tr)、最大荧光(Fm)、PSⅡ最大光化学效率(Fv/Fm)、实际光化学效率(ΦPSⅡ)和光化学淬灭系数(qP)不同程度升高,细胞间隙CO2浓度(Ci)、最小荧光(Fo)和非光化学淬灭系数(NPQ)显著降低,其中SA浓度为200μmol/L时,各指标变幅均达到最大;在盐胁迫下,番茄幼苗叶片超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化物酶(POD)活性、丙二醛含量和电解质渗出率显著升高,过氧化氢酶(CAT)活性变化不显著,施加各浓度外源SA处理促进了上述3种酶活性的升高,同时使叶片丙二醛含量和电解质渗出率显著降低,并以200μmol/L SA处理时变化最显著。外源SA主要通过增强幼苗叶片的光合能力来缓解盐胁迫造成的氧化伤害,进而提高番茄植株的耐盐性。本试验条件下,以200μmol/L SA处理效果最好。

盐碱胁迫对枸杞幼苗生物量积累和光合作用的影响

以内陆高寒区盐碱地重要的经济树种枸杞2年生幼苗为研究对象,采用盆栽控制试验方法,设置50、100、200、300mmol·L~(-1)共4个盐和碱(NaCl和NaHCO3)胁迫浓度,研究盐、碱胁迫对枸杞苗木生长和光合的影响,以明确枸杞幼苗生长的耐盐、碱浓度范围,探讨土壤盐碱含量与土壤水分含量的关系,为不同类型盐碱条件下枸杞的种植和水分管理提供理论依据。结果表明:(1)随着盐碱胁迫浓度的增大,枸杞幼苗根茎叶生物量及叶绿素含量(SPAD)、净光合速率(Pn)、蒸腾速率(Tr)、气孔导度(Gs)和胞间二氧化碳浓度(Ci)等光合作用参数逐渐受到显著抑制,且碱胁迫的抑制作用更强烈;但低浓度(50mmol/L)NaCl胁迫下,枸杞幼苗叶绿素含量和净光合速率并未受到显著影响。(2)在盐碱胁迫条件下,枸杞幼苗的最大净光合速率(Pnmax)、暗呼吸速率(RD)、初始量子效率(AQY)、光饱和点(LSP)均低于对照,而光补偿点(LCP)高于对照,且随着胁迫浓度的增加,碱胁迫处理下的变幅大于盐胁迫。(3)随着胁迫浓度的增大,影响净光合速率的因素由气孔限制转向非气孔限制的临界值,在盐胁迫下的临界浓度约为200mmol/L,在碱胁迫下的临界浓度约为100mmol/L。(4)按照指标值超过对照组50%标准,经回归分析确定,枸杞耐盐和耐碱阈值分别为(246.3±2.1)mmol/L和(126.7±2.7)mmol/L;在此阈值的基础上,得到土壤含水量与土壤含盐量回归曲线方程。研究认为,枸杞幼苗具有一定的耐盐能力,但过高浓度的盐碱胁迫会损坏其光合结构,降低光环境适应能力和光合作用效率,从而影响其正常生长。     

外源水杨酸对NaCl胁迫下白榆幼苗光合作用及离子分配的影响

以1年生白榆幼苗为研究对象,设置0、0.5、1.0和2.0 mmol·L^-1水杨酸(SA)与0、50、100和150 mmol·L^-1 NaCl处理组合,考察盐胁迫下白榆幼苗生物量、光合色素含量、光合作用参数及根叶离子含量、分配、运输的情况,探讨外源SA对NaCl胁迫下白榆幼苗耐盐生理特征的影响。结果表明:(1)NaCl胁迫显著抑制了白榆幼苗的生长、光合色素含量及光合能力,并破坏了白榆体内离子平衡。(2)喷施外源SA使盐胁迫下白榆幼苗的干重和根冠比均不同程度升高,0.5和2.0 mmol·L^-1 SA不同程度提高了50和100 mmol·L^-1 NaCl处理组幼苗叶片光合色素含量。(3)0.5 mmol·L^-1 SA显著提升了50 mmol·L^-1 NaCl处理组白榆幼苗的净光合速率(Pn)、气孔导度(Gs)和蒸腾速率(Tr),1.0和2.0 mmol·L^-1 SA对150 mmol·L^-1 NaCl处理组幼苗净光合速率改善效果较好,外源SA对100 mmol·L^-1 NaCl处理组幼苗的光合作用参数无显著影响。(4)NaCl胁迫下,外源SA处理的白榆幼苗叶和根Na^+含量及Na^+/K^+、Na^+/Ca^2+和Na^+/Mg^2+显著降低,离子选择运输系数SK,Na、SCa,Na和SMg,Na升高,从而促进了幼苗K^+、Ca^2+和Mg^2+由根向叶片的转运;隶属函数分析发现对白榆幼苗叶和根中离子含量改善效果最好的SA浓度分别为1.0和2.0 mmol·L^-1。因此,适宜浓度的外源水杨酸能够有效改善NaCl胁迫下白榆幼苗的光合能力,有效调节白榆幼苗体内离子状态,从而增强白榆对NaCl胁迫的抗性。     

Exogenous succinic acid mediates responses of Larix olgensis A. Henry to cadmium stress

Abstract

Trace metal contamination of soil is an increasing problem. Organic acid application can restore trace metal elements such as cadmium (Cd) in contaminated soil. Changbai larch (Larix olgensis A. Henry) is an economically important forestry species in northeast China; however, growth is inhibited by severe Cd contamination. We investigated the effects of different concentrations of exogenous succinic acid (SA) on Cd tolerance and physiological and morphological toxicity in L. olgensis seedlings. Seedlings were planted in pots containing Cd-contaminated or uncontaminated Haplic Cambisol. Seedlings in Cd-contaminated soil were treated daily with SA solution at 0, 0.04, 0.2, 1.0, and 2.0?mmol kg^?1 of soil for 10, 20 or 30?days. Cd treatment induced seedling damage and significantly increased the relative conductivity and malondialdehyde content of the leaves, inhibiting soluble protein and proline contents, superoxide dismutase and peroxidase activity, chlorophyl fluorescence and pigment content. Decreases in the length, surface area, volume of roots and leaves, and specific root length were also observed. Effects increased in control plants with time. SA treatment also reduced the Cd content of the fine roots and leaves and Mg, K, and Ca contents. Moreover, plant growth was significantly promoted and damage was reversed, especially at 5.0 and 10.0?mmol?L^?1 SA for 30?days. SA therefore alleviated Cd-induced injury, improving tolerance to Cd stress. SA application combined with afforestation could therefore help restore Cd-contaminated soil in northeast China. Further studies aimed at determining the detoxification mechanism of L. olgensis seedlings are now required.     

盐地碱蓬二型性种子及其幼苗对盐渍环境的适应性

研究了盐地碱蓬二型性种子中离子含量与刚萌发幼苗耐盐性之间的关系,以及盐分对砂培盐地碱蓬二型性种子的幼苗生长、离子含量及光合特性的影响.棕色种子中离子含量显著高于黑色种子.与对照相比,100和400 mmol/L NaCl对棕色种子幼苗伸长没有抑制作用,却显著抑制黑色种子幼苗的伸长.NaCl处理下棕色种子的幼苗地上部分干重和主茎一级分枝数比黑色种子幼苗高,但二型性种子的幼苗叶片中离子含量、叶绿素含量及光合放氧速率却没有明显差异.上述结果说明盐地碱蓬棕色种子较高的离子含量可能是棕色种子刚萌发幼苗耐盐性较强的重要原因.棕色种子幼苗较高的生物量可能与其较多的分枝数有关.二型种子的这些特征可能决定了其在群落建成中所起到的不同作用.     

NaCl胁迫下沙枣幼苗生长和阳离子吸收、运输与分配特性

沙枣(Elaeagnus angustifolia L.)耐盐性强,是我国北方生态脆弱地区造林绿化的一个先锋树种。为探讨沙枣的盐适应机制,研究了不同浓度NaCl(0、100和200 mmol/L)胁迫30d对其水培幼苗生物量累积以及不同组织(根、茎、叶)K+、Na+、Ca2+和Mg2+吸收、运输与分配的影响。结果表明:盐胁迫不同程度地促进了沙枣苗根系生长;100 mmol/L NaCl胁迫对幼苗生物量累积无明显影响,而200 mmol/L则显著抑制了生物量累积;盐胁迫幼苗根、茎、叶中Na+含量以及K+-Na+选择性运输系数(S K,Na)和Ca2+-Na+选择性运输系数(S Ca,Na)显著或大幅度增加,而K+、Ca2+、Mg2+含量以及K+/Na+、Ca2+/Na+和Mg2+/Na+比值则显著或大幅度下降;200 mmol/L NaCl胁迫沙枣根Na+含量和根Na+净累积量分别为22.15 mg/g干重和1.87 mg/株(是对照的16.20倍和20.06倍),根成为Na+净累积量增加幅度最大的组织和Na+含量最高的组织;200 mmol/L NaCl胁迫沙枣茎、叶中的Na+含量以及冠组织Na+净累积量分别高达5.15、7.71 mg/g干重和3.29 mg/株(是对照的7.22倍、9.58倍和5.45倍),但幼苗仍能正常生长。综合分析认为,沙枣的盐适应机制是根系拒盐和冠组织耐盐,主要通过根系的补偿生长效应、根系对Na+的聚积与限制作用以及冠组织对Na+的忍耐来实现的,同时也与根、茎和叶对K+、Ca2+选择性运输能力显著增强有关。     

Role of potassium and malate in nitrate uptake and translocation by wheat seedlings

Wheat seedlings (Triticum vulgare) treated with 1 mm KNO₃ or NaNO₃, in the presence of 0.2 mm CaSO₄, were compared during a 48-hour period with respect to nitrate uptake, translocation, accumulation and reduction; cation uptake and accumulation; and malate accumulation. Seedlings treated with KNO₃ absorbed and accumulated more nitrate, had higher nitrate reductase levels in leaves but less in roots, accumulated 17 times more malate in leaves, and accumulated more of the accompanying cation than seedlings treated with NaNO₃. Within seedlings of each treatment, changes in nitrate reductase activity and malate accumulation were parallel in leaves and in roots. Despite the great difference in malate accumulation, leaves of the KNO₃-treated seedlings had only slightly greater levels of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase than leaves of NaNO₃-treated seedlings. NADP-malic enzyme levels increased only slightly in leaves and roots of both KNO₃- and NaNO₃-treated seedlings. The effects of K⁺ and Na⁺ on all of these parameters can best be explained by their effects on nitrate translocation, which in turn affects the other parameters. In a separate experiment, we confirmed that phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase activity increased about 2-fold during 36 hours of KNO₃ treatment, and increased only slightly in the KCl control.     

枫杨幼苗对土壤水分"湿-干"交替变化光合及叶绿素荧光的响应

以盆栽1年生枫杨幼苗为实验材料,通过人工设置土壤水分来模拟三峡库区消落带不同土壤水分对枫杨幼苗的光合参数、光合色素含量、叶绿素荧光特性等的影响.试验设置4个处理组,分别为常规供水、常规供水-轻度干旱-复水、水淹、水淹-轻度干旱-复水,3个处理期分别为前期(0-33 d)、中期(34-63 d)、后期(64-78 d).结果表明,不同的水分处理显著地影响了枫杨幼苗“表观性”的气体交换、光合色素含量和水分利用效率等特性,但相较而言对枫杨幼苗“内在性”的叶绿素荧光特性影响较小,且影响的结果和程度因处理组和指标而异.78 d时,除胞间CO2浓度(Gi)、叶绿素a/叶绿素b、光化学猝灭值(qP)和非光化学淬灭值(qN)外,水淹组(FL组)的各项指标在4个处理组中都为最低值;“湿-干”交替组(FD组)的净光合速率(Pn)、蒸腾速率(Tr)、气孔导度(Gs)及总叶绿素含量则表现出先降低复水后显著增加的趋势;DR组的变化趋势与FD组类似,但变化的幅度较FD组小.研究发现,枫杨幼苗面对不同水分状况呈现出了一定的敏感特性,但随着胁迫时间的延长其无论是从光合、水分利用还是叶绿素荧光特性方面都表现出积极的响应,较能适应干旱、水淹、“湿-干”交替等多种环境胁迫,且在胁迫解除后能够迅速恢复生长,可以考虑用于三峡库区消落带的植被重建.     

Effects of buffer capacity on growth,photosynthesis, and solute accumulation of a glycophyte (wheat) and a halophyte (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Chloris virgata</Emphasis>)

Two species with different resistances to alkaline pH, the glycophylic Triticum aestivum (wheat) and the halophilic Chloris virgata, were chosen as test organisms. The salt-alkaline (SA) mixed stress conditions with different buffer capacities (BC) but with the same salt molarities and pH were established by mixing neutral (NaCl, Na₂SO₄), and alkaline salts (NaHCO₃ and Na₂CO₃) in various proportions. Growth, photosynthetic characteristics, and solute accumulation of the seedlings were monitored to test the validity of BC as a decisive index of alkali-stress (AS) intensity in SA mixed stress. At the same salinities and pHs, the relative growth rate, the content of photosynthetic pigments, and net photosynthetic rates of wheat and C. virgata decreased, while Na⁺ content and Na⁺/K⁺ ratios in shoots increased with increasing BC. Hence BC was a true measure of AS intensity at mixed SA stress and the alkali-resistance mechanism of plants was easy to interpret. BC of soil solution is an important parameter for estimating the alkalization degree of salt-alkalized soil.     

Experimental and simulated light responses of photosynthesis in leaves of three tree species under different soil water conditions

Water deficit is one of the major limiting factors in vegetation recovery and restoration in loess, hilly-gully regions of China. The light responses of photosynthesis in leaves of two-year old Prunus sibirica L., Hippophae rhamnoides L., and Pinus tabulaeformis Carr. under various soil water contents were studied using the CIRAS-2 portable photosynthesis system. Light-response curves and photosynthetic parameters were analyzed and fitted using the rectangular hyperbola model, the exponential model, the nonrectangular hyperbola model, and the modified rectangular hyperbola model. Under high light, photosynthetic rate (P _N) and stomatal conductance (g _s) were steady and photoinhibition was not significant, when the relative soil water content (RWC) varied from 56.3–80.9%, 47.9–82.9%, and 33.4–92.6% for P. sibirica, H. rhamnoides, and P. tabulaeformis, respectively. The light-response curves of P _N, the light compensation point (LCP), and the dark respiration rate (R _D) were well fitted using the above four models. The nonrectangular hyperbola was the best model in fitting the data; the modified rectangular hyperbola model was the second, and the rectangular hyperbola model was the poorest one. When RWC was higher or lower than the optimal range, the obvious photoinhibition and significant decrease in P _N with increasing photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD) were observed in all three species under high light. The light saturation point (LSP) and apparent quantum yield also decreased significantly, when the upper limit of PPFD was 200 μmol m^?2 s^?1. Under these circumstances, only the modified rectangular hyperbola model was able to fit well the curves of the light response, LCP, LSP, R _D, and light-saturated P _N.
