The present study was undertaken to test the influence of exogenously applied jasmonic acid (JA) upon the growth and metabolism of Wolffia arrhiza (Lemnaceae), the smallest vessel aquatic plant exposed to lead (Pb) stress. It was found, that JA acted in a concentration-dependent manner. Treatment with JA at the highest concentration 100 μM resulted in the enhancement of heavy metal toxicity leading to increase in metal biosorption and formation of lipid peroxides as well as decrease in fresh weight, chlorophyll a, carotenoid, monosaccharide and soluble protein content. In contrast, this phytohormone applied at 0.1 μM protected W. arrhiza fronds against Pb stress inhibiting heavy metal accumulation, restoring plant growth and primary metabolite level. Moreover, JA at 0.1 μM activated enzymatic (catalase, ascorbate peroxidase, NADH peroxidase) and non-enzymatic antioxidant (ascorbate, glutathione) system in W. arrhiza, and therefore, suppressed oxidative destruction of cellular components induced by heavy metal. The data suggest that JA plays an important role in the growth and metabolism of W. arrhiza exposed to abiotic stressor and its high adaptation ability to metal contamination of aquatic environment. 相似文献

Effects of exogenous gibberellic acid (GA; 10 and 100 μM) application on growth, protein and nitrogen contents, ammonium (NH 4
+) content, enzymes of nitrogen assimilation and antioxidant system in pea seedlings were investigated under chromium (VI)
phytotoxicity (Cr VI; 50, 100 and 250 μM). Exposure of pea seedlings to Cr and 100 μM GA resulted in decreased seed germination,
fresh and dry weight and length of root and shoot, and protein and nitrogen contents compared to control. Compared to control,
Cr and 100 μM GA led to the significant alteration in nitrogen assimilation in pea. These treatments decreased root and shoot
nitrate reductase (NR), glutamine synthetase (GS) and glutamine 2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase (GOGAT) activities (except
50 μM Cr alone for GOGAT) while glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) activity and NH 4
+ content increased. Compared to control, the root and shoot activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and ascorbate peroxidase
(APX) increased (except APX activity at 250 μM Cr + 100 μM GA) while catalase (CAT), glutathione reductase (GR) and dehydroascorbate
reductase (DHAR) activities were decreased (except GR at 100 μM GA alone) following exposure of Cr and 100 μM GA. Total ascorbate
and total glutathione in root and shoot decreased by the treatments of Cr and 100 μM GA while their levels were increased
by the application of 10 μM GA compared to Cr treatments alone. It has been reported that application of 10 μM GA together
with Cr alleviated inhibited levels of growth, nitrogen assimilation and antioxidant system compared to Cr treatments alone.
This study showed that application of 10 μM GA counteracts some of the adverse effects of Cr phytotoxicity with the increased
levels of antioxidants and sustained activities of enzymes of nitrogen assimilation; however, 100 μM GA showed apparently
reverse effect under Cr phytotoxicity. 相似文献

This paper mainly studies the possible antioxidant of monoterpene and effects of its absence on other antioxidant defense.
The leaves of rubber tree ( Hevea brasiliensis) were fed with fosmidomycin through transpiration stream, in the dark, at room temperature for 2 h, and were then exposed
to bright illumination (1,500 μmol m −2 s −1) and moderately high temperature (30°C) for 1 h. The results showed that monoterpene biosynthesis in leaves was considerably
inhibited by fosmidomycin, and the elevated levels of both hydrogen peroxide and malondialdehyde were observed in the leaves
fed with fosmidomycin (LFF). Compared to the control leaves (CK), ∆ F/ F
m′ in the LFF was markedly lower during the first 20 min; however, there were no significant differences in non-photochemical
quenching and photosynthetic pigments (chlorophylls and carotenoids). In contrast, the activities of antioxidant enzymes (superoxide
dismutase, catalase, guaiacol peroxidase, ascorbate peroxidase, and glutathione reductase) were enhanced in the LFF. Meanwhile,
the contents of antioxidant metabolites (ascorbate and glutathione) were also elevated in the LFF, when compared with the
CK. The results obtained here suggest that monoterpene may be very effective molecule in protecting plants against oxidative
stress, the absence of monoterpene leads to the increased responses of the enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant defenses
to oxidative stress, and the enhancement of the enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant defenses may, in part, compensate
for the loss of antioxidant conferred by monoterpene. 相似文献

Nitric oxide and reactive oxygen species are important signal molecules that play key roles in plant defense responses. We
investigated the involvement of nitric oxide elicitation in the synthesis of secondary metabolites within the adventitious
roots of Echinacea purpurea. When roots were treated with 100 μM sodium nitroprusside (SNP), an exogenous nitric oxide producer, the accumulation of phenolics,
flavonoids, and caffeic acid derivatives was enhanced. This level of SNP also induced an antioxidant defense, as indicated
by increases in Superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase, and ascorbic acid, along with decreases in hydrogen peroxide,
lipid peroxidation, and dehydroascorbate/ascorbic acid. However, a higher concentration (250 μM SNP) acted as a pro-oxidant,
thereby raising the levels of hydrogen peroxide, lipid peroxidation, and dehydroascorbate/ascorbic acid while diminishing
ascorbic acid, ascorbate peroxidase, and the accumulation of secondary metabolites compared with our observations at 100 μM
SNP. Therefore, we conclude that eliciting E. purpurea adventitious roots with a concentration of 100 μM SNP is beneficial to their accumulation of secondary metabolites. 相似文献

The influence of phytohormones, salicylic acid (SA) and methyl jasmonate (MJ) on the antioxidant systems in Haematococcus
pluvialis was investigated. Both SA and MJ at 500 μM concentration reduced the growth of alga with salicylic acid, having more pronounced
effect. Carotenoid and chlorophyll contents were decreased by SA and increased by MJ. Salicylic acid (100 μM) increased astaxanthin
content to 6.8-fold under low light (30 μmol m −2 s −1), while MJ (10 μM) showed marginal increase in astaxanthin. Salicylic acid (500 μM) increased superoxide dismutase activity
to 4.5- and 3.3-fold and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) activity to 15.5- and 7.1-fold under low and high light, respectively.
Methyl jasmonate increased catalase activity (1.4-fold) under high light and APX activity (5.4-fold) under low light. Different
mechanism of oxidative stress induced antioxidant production may be the plausible reason for this varied response for salicylic
acid and methyl jasmonate. Higher concentrations of SA and MJ inhibited astaxanthin accumulation by different mechanisms either
by scavenging the free radicals or by increasing primary carotenoids production. At lower concentrations, these phytohormones
could be used for elicitation of secondary carotenoid production. 相似文献

Protein pattern, ammonia content, glutamine synthetase activity, lipid peroxidation, superoxide dismutase, catalase, peroxidase
and peroxidase isoforms were studied in the leaves and roots of 7-d-old peanut ( Arachis hypogaea L. cv. JL-24) seedlings treated by 25, 100 and 250 μM jasmonic acid (JA). SDS-PAGE protein profile of leaves and roots after
JA application showed a significant increase in 18, 21, 30, 45, 47 and 97.4 kDa proteins and significant decrease in 22 and
36 kDa proteins. Pathogenesis related PR-18 was specific in leaves at 250 μM JA and PR-21 have cross reacted differently with
21 and 30 kDa proteins in leaves and roots treated by all JA concentrations. Further, the immunoblot analysis with glutamine
synthetase, GS-45 antibodies revealed a specific cross reaction with 45 and 47 kDa proteins of both control and JA treated
leaves, however, higher at 100 and 250 μM JA treated leaves than control ones. Further, the malondialdehyde (MDA) content
significantly increased in leaves and roots treated with JA, indicated membrane damage with JA treatments that led to the
generation of peroxidation products. The peroxidase isozymic pattern showed two specific isoforms. Besides, the activities
of SOD and catalase were significantly elevated in JA treated leaves. 相似文献

The present study was undertaken to test the influence of exogenous applied jasmonic acid upon the growth and changes in some
metabolites levels in the cells of green alga Chlorella vulgaris Beijerinck (Chlorophyceae). It was found, that JA in algal cells acted in a concentration-dependent manner. Treatment with
JA at high concentrations range of 10 −5–10 −4 M, resulted in the decrease in cell number and reduction of major photosynthetic pigments, monosaccharides, soluble cellular
and extracellular proteins levels as well as decrease in pH of the medium. In contrast to 10 −5 and 10 −4 M JA, this phytohormone applied at 10 −8–10 −6 M induced the increase in cell number, photosynthetic pigments and monosaccharides contents, significant accumulation and
extracellular secretion of soluble proteins over control and neutralization of the medium. Quantitative changes in polypeptide
pattern of total cellular proteins after treatment with the optimal concentration of 10 −7 M JA on the 7 th day of cultivation as analyzed by SDS-PAGE, was also observed. JA induced synthesis de novo of 15 specific polypeptides with molecular weight 334-16 kDa which were’t detected in the control. The data suggest that
JA plays a important role in algal growth and development. 相似文献

The effects of cadmium (Cd) on germination, and antioxidative enzyme activity (AEA) involving superoxide dismutase, catalase,
peroxidase, and ascorbate peroxidase, and on amounts of malondialdehyde and proline present within Achnatherum inebrians, were determined for specimens infected (E+) vs. non-infected (E−) by Neotyphodium gansuense, and cultivated in the presence of various concentrations of CdCl 2 (0, 50, 100, 200 and 300 μmol/l). Under high Cd concentrations (100, 200 and 300 μM), E+ (vs. E−) specimens exhibited a higher
germination rate and index, and higher values for shoot length, root length and dry biomass, but there was no significant
difference ( P > 0.05) under low Cd concentrations (0 and 50 μM). AEA and the proline content increased, but malondialdehyde content declined
in the E+ (vs. E−) specimens under high Cd concentrations (100, 200 and 300 μM). There was no significant difference ( P > 0.05) under low Cd concentrations (0 and 50 μM). Endophyte infection was concluded to be of benefit to the germination
and anti-oxidative mechanisms within A. inebrians under plant exposures to high CdCl 2 concentrations. 相似文献

Roots of Panax ginseng exposed to various concentrations of Cu (0.0, 5, 10.0, 25.0, and 50.0 μM) accumulated high amounts of Cu in a concentration-dependent and duration-dependent manner. Roots treated with 50 μM Cu resulted in 52% and 89% growth inhibition after 20 and 40 days, respectively. Saponin synthesis was stimulated at a Cu concentration between 5 and 25 μM but decreased at 50 μM Cu. Malondialdehyde content (MDA), lipoxygenase activity (LOX), superoxide ion (O 2
•−) accumulation, and H 2O 2 content at 5 and 10 μM Cu-treated roots were not increased but strongly increased at 50 μM Cu resulting in the oxidation of ascorbate (ASC) and glutathione (GSH) to dehydroascorbate (DHA) and glutathione disulfide (GSSG), respectively indicating a clear oxidative stress. Seven well-resolved bands of superoxide dismutase (SOD) were detected in the gel and an increase in SOD activity seemed to be mainly due to the induction of Fe-SOD 3. Five to 10 μM Cu slightly induced activity of ascorbate peroxidase (APX) and dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR), guaiacol peroxidase (G-POD) but inhibited monodehydroascorbate reductase (MDHAR) and glutathione reductase (GR) enzyme activities. No changes in catalase (CAT) activity and in activity gel were found up to 25 μM Cu, but both G-POD and CAT activities were inhibited at 50 μM Cu. Glutathione metabolism enzymes such as γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase (γ-GCS), glutathione- S-transferase (GST), and glutathione peroxidase activities (GPx) were activated at 5 and 10 μM Cu but were strongly inhibited at 50 μM Cu due to the Cu accumulation in root tissues. The strong depletion of GSH at 50 μM Cu was associated to the strong induction of γ-glutamyltranspeptidase (γ-GGT) activity. These results indicate that plant could grow under Cu stress (5–25 μM) by modulating the antioxidant defense mechanism for combating Cu induced oxidative stress. 相似文献

Callus cultures of two parental clones of Populus nigra L., Poli and 58-861, originating from contrasting environments, were exposed to different cadmium concentrations (0, 150
and 250 μM CdSO 4). Clones showed different growth responses to cadmium, evaluated by the tolerance index (Ti), with Poli being more tolerant
to the metal at both concentrations. The cadmium concentration at the end of the treatment was very similar between clones
at 150 μM CdSO 4, while a higher value in 58-861 compared to Poli was detected at 250 μM CdSO 4. The bioconcentration factor evidenced the lowest value in Poli at 250 μM CdSO 4. Unlike 58-861, cadmium provoked a strong induction of thiols and phytochelatins in clone Poli. In both clones, organic acid
concentration differed notably in untreated calli and cadmium treatment induced a general lowering of these compounds. A notably
higher antioxidant enzyme activity (ascorbate peroxidase, APX; catalase, CAT; guaiacol peroxidase, GPX) was measured in control
calli of clone Poli compared to 58-861. Cadmium induced a remarkable enhancement of APX and CAT, but not GPX, activity at
150 μM CdSO 4 in Poli. Conversely, in 58-861 at 150 μM CdSO 4, and in both clones at 250 μM CdSO 4, a decrease in the antioxidant activity occurred. This investigation provided evidence that these two contrasting genotypes
of P. nigra are characterised by a different response to cadmium in callus cultures. In particular, in Poli, the higher tolerance to
cadmium is associated with a higher activity of antioxidative enzymes and the ability to strongly increase thiol and PC concentration
in response to metal exposure. 相似文献

The present study was undertaken to test the influence of exogenously applied traumatic acid (TA) upon the activity of several
antioxidant enzymes as well as lipid and protein peroxidation in green algae Chlorella vulgaris. Treatment with TA in concentration range of 10 −6–10 −5 M resulted in an increase of antioxidant enzyme (sodium dismutase, catalase, ascorbate peroxidase, NADH peroxidase, glutathione
reductase) activity. Moreover, TA suppressed lipid peroxidation and oxidative destruction of proteins belonging to the SH
groups. This data suggest that TA plays an important role in the metabolism of C. vulgaris and probably in its high ability to adapt to various environmental stress factors. 相似文献

The in vivo effect of ultraviolet radiation-B (UVBR) in apical segments of Chondracanthus teedei was examined. Over a period of 7 days, the segments were cultivated and exposed to photosynthetically active radiation (PAR)
at 80 μmol photons m −2 s −1 and PAR + UVBR at 1.6 W m −2 for 3 h per day. The samples were processed for electron microscopy and histochemistry; also was analyzed growth rates, mitochondrial
activity, protein levels, content of photosynthetic pigments and photosynthetic performance. UVBR elicited increased cell
wall thickness and accumulation of plastoglobuli, changes in mitochondrial organization and destruction of chloroplast internal
organization. Compared to controls, algae exposed to PAR + UVBR showed a growth rate reduction of 55%. The content of photosynthetic
pigments, including chlorophyll a and phycobiliproteins, decreased after exposure to PAR + UVBR. This result agrees with the decreased photosynthetic performance
observed after exposing algae to PAR + UVBR. Irradiation also elicited increased activity of the antioxidant enzyme glutathione
peroxidase and decreased mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase activity, which correlated with the decreased protein content in
plants exposed to PAR + UVBR. Taken together, these findings strongly indicate that UVBR negatively affects the architecture
and metabolism of the carragenophyte C. teedei. 相似文献

Adventitious roots (ARs) are induced by auxins. Jasmonic acid (JA) and methyl jasmonate (MeJA) are also plant growth regulators
with many effects on development, but their role on ARs needs investigation. To this aim, we analyzed AR formation in tobacco
thin cell layers (TCLs) cultured with 0.01–10 μM MeJA, either under root-inductive conditions, i.e., on medium containing
10 μM indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) and 0.1 μM kinetin, or without hormones. The explants were excised from the cultivars Samsun,
Xanthii and Petite Havana, and from genotypes with altered AR-forming ability in response to auxin, namely the non-rooting
rac mutant and the over-rooting Agrobacterium rhizogenes
rolB transgenic line. Results show that NtRNR1 (G1/S) and Ntcyc29 (G2/M) gene activity, cell proliferation and meristemoid formation were stimulated in hormone-cultured TCLs by submicromolar
MeJA concentrations. The meristemoids developed either into ARs and xylogenic nodules, or into xylogenic nodules only ( rac TCLs). MeJA-induced meristemoid over-production characterized rolB TCLs. No rooting or xylogenesis occurred under hormone-free conditions, independently of MeJA and genotype. Endogenous JA
progressively (days 1–4) increased in hormone-cultured TCLs in the absence of MeJA. JA levels were enhanced by 0.1 μM MeJA,
on both days 1 and 4. Endogenous IBA was the only auxin detected, both in the free form and as IBA-glucose. Free IBA increased
up to day 2, remaining constant thereafter (day 4). Its level was enhanced by 0.1 μM MeJA only on day 1, while IBA conjugation
was not affected by MeJA. Taken together, these results show that an interplay between jasmonates and auxins regulates AR
formation and xylogenesis in tobacco TCLs. 相似文献

Paraquat is most extensively used methyl viologen herbicide to control weeds in the rice- Azolla ecosystem. The effects of different paraquat (PQ) dosages on growth, lipid peroxidation, and activity of antioxidant enzymes
of Azolla microphylla Kaul. were investigated. The results indicated that Azolla fronds survived only at the concentrations of 2–6 μM PQ. Frond fragmentation and browning occurred after 24 h at 8 μM PQ.
At 24 h, the amount of proteins decreased by 48.7 % in Azolla fronds exposed to 10 μM PQ than that in control fronds. The supplementation of 10 μM PQ increased the activities of superoxide
dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), guaiacol peroxidase (GPX), and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) by 2,4-, 1,8-, 3,0-, and 2,2-fold,
respectively, as compared with control. The content of PQ and activities of SOD, CAT, GPX, and APX were found to be positively
correlated. Our study showed that PQ (2–6 μM) caused ROS overproduction in Azolla fronds, which were scavenged by induced activities of antioxidant enzymes. 相似文献

Phytohormones, including salicylic acid (SA) and jasmonic acid (JA) have the potential to ameliorate plant development and tolerance to deleterious effects of toxic metals like nickel (Ni). Therefore, the current study was carried out to evaluate SA and JA's interactive effect on the root antioxidative response of two Alyssum inflatum Nyár. populations against Ni-toxicity. Two A. inflatum species under different Ni concentrations (0, 100, 200, and 400 μM) were exposed to alone or combined levels of SA (0, 50, and 200 μM) and JA (0, 5, and 10 μM) treatments. Results showed that high Ni concentration (400 μM) reduced roots fresh weight in both populations than in control. However, external application of individual SA and JA or combined SA?+?JA in higher doses had ameliorated roots biomass by mitigating Ni-toxicity, especially in the NM population, in comparison to 400 μM Ni. Under Ni toxicity, SA and JA, especially their combination, induced high Ni accumulation in plants' roots. Moreover, the application of SA and JA alone, as well as combined SA?+?JA, was found to be effective in the scavenging of hydrogen peroxide by improving the activity of superoxide dismutase, peroxidase, catalase, and ascorbate peroxidase in both populations under Ni-toxicity. Overall, our results manifest that SA and JA's external use, especially combined SA?+?JA treatments, ameliorate root biomass and plant tolerance by restricting Ni translocation to the shoot, accumulating in roots, and enhancing antioxidant defense systems. 相似文献

Significant changes were observed in the antioxidant systems in the leaves of black gram ( Vigna mungo L., var. DPU-88-31) grown under deficient and excess supply of Zn. Plant grown with Zn supply ranging from 0.01 to 10.0 μM
under glasshouse conditions showed optimal growth and biomass yield at 1.0 μM Zn supply. Deficient (0.001 and 0.01 μM) as
well as excess (2.0 and 10.0 μM) supply of Zn decreased the concentrations of chlorophyll, carotenoids, and nonprotein thiols
and increased that of ascorbate. The activity of superoxide dismutase and carbonic anhydrase was decreased at deficient levels
and increased with increase in Zn supply up to 10 μM. At both stages of growth, the activities of antioxidant enzymes, such
as catalase and ascorbate peroxidase, were decreased, whereas the activities of glutathione reductase and peroxidase were
increased at both deficient and excess supply of Zn. An accumulation of hydrogen peroxide and thiobarbituric acid-reactive
substances was observed in Zn-stressed leaves, indicating oxidative damage. Different responses to deficient and excess supply
of Zn were observed in the production of oxidative damage. 相似文献

The effect of exogenously applied natural [indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), phenylacetic acid (PAA), indole-3-butyric acid (IBA)] and synthetic [1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA)] auxins on the growth and metabolism of green microalga Chlorella vulgaris was examined. Exogenous auxins acted in a concentration-dependent manner on algal growth. Phytohormones at concentration of 100 μM inhibited algal growth expressed as the number of cells. IAA and IBA displayed the highest biological activity at 0.1 μM, whereas PAA and NAA were characterized by the greatest stimulatory effect on the number of cells at 1 μM. Treatment with IAA and IBA at 0.1 μM or NAA and PAA at 1 μM increased the concentration of photosynthetic pigments, monosaccharides and soluble proteins in C. vulgaris. Moreover, all auxins stimulated enzymatic (ascorbate peroxidase, catalase, superoxide dismutase) and non-enzymatic antioxidant (ascorbate, glutathione) systems in C. vulgaris, and therefore, suppressed lipid peroxidation and hydrogen peroxide accumulation. The data supports the hypothesis that auxins play a central role in the regulation of C. vulgaris growth and metabolism and the components of cellular redox systems that are thought to have a prominent role in the regulation of auxin-dependent processes. 相似文献

In this study, we examined the modulation of Cu toxicity-induced oxidative stress by excess supply of iron in Zea mays L. plants. Plants receiving excess of Cu (100 μM) showed decreased water potential and simultaneously showed wilting in the
leaves. Later, the young leaves exhibited chlorosis and necrotic scorching of lamina. Excess of Cu suppressed growth, decreased
concentration of chloroplastic pigments and fresh and dry weight of plants. The activities of peroxidase (EC 1.11.1.7; POD),
ascorbate peroxidase (EC 1.11.1.11; APX) and superoxide dismutase (EC 1.15.1.1; SOD) were increased in plants supplied excess
of Cu. However, activity of catalase (EC 1.11.1.6; CAT), was depressed in these plants. In gel activities of isoforms of POD,
APX and SOD also revealed upregulation of these enzymes. Excess (500 μM)-Fe-supplemented Cu-stressed plants, however, looked
better in their phenotypic appearance, had increased concentration of chloroplastic pigments, dry weight, and improved leaf
tissue water status in comparison to the plants supplied excess of Cu. Moreover, activities of antioxidant enzymes including
CAT were further enhanced and thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) and H 2O 2 concentrations decreased in excess-Fe-supplemented Cu-stressed plants. In situ accumulation of H 2O 2, contrary to that of O 2
·− radical, increased in both leaf and roots of excess-Cu-stressed plants, but Cu-excess plants supplied with excess-Fe showed
reduced accumulation H 2O 2 and little higher of O 2
·− in comparison to excess-Cu plants. It is, therefore, concluded that excess-Cu (100 μM) induces oxidative stress by increasing
production of H 2O 2 despite of increased antioxidant protection and that the excess-Cu-induced oxidative damage is minimized by excess supply
of Fe. 相似文献

We evaluated the involvement of nitric oxide (NO) in salicylic acid (SA)-induced accumulation of ginsenoside in adventitious
roots of Panax ginseng and its mediation by reactive oxygen species (ROS). Related effects of SA on components of the antioxidant system were also
sought. Adventitious roots of P. ginseng were grown in suspension culture for 3 weeks in MS medium and treated over 5 days with SA (100 μM) alone, SA in combination
with the NO scavenger 2-phenyl-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl-3-oxide (PTIO), or PTIO alone. Nitric oxide, the superoxide
anion (O 2·−), H 2O 2, nitrite, nonprotein thiol, and ascorbate were monitored together with ginsenoside, NADPH oxidase activity, and several antioxidant
enzymes. Salicylic acid did not inhibit root growth but induced accumulation of ginsenoside, lipid peroxidation, and generation
of NO and O 2·−. It also enhanced activities of NADPH oxidase, superoxide dismutase, catalase, and peroxidase, including ascorbate peroxidase.
These effects were suppressed by PTIO. Salicylic acid also decreased glutathione reductase activity. Inclusion of PTIO with
SA decreased the activity of glutathione reductase further. Treatment with SA plus PTIO also decreased nonprotein thiol and
ascorbate contents but caused nitrite to overaccumulate. Salicylic acid applied to adventitious roots in culture induced accumulation
of ginsenoside in an NO-dependent manner that was mediated by the associated increases in O 2·−, which gave other antioxidant responses that were dependent on NO. 相似文献
