铝胁迫对海莲幼苗保护酶系统及脯氨酸含量的影响 总被引:3,自引:2,他引:1
为探讨Al~(3+)胁迫对海莲的影响,研究了10~50 mmol/L Al~(3+)处理下海莲幼苗叶片和根系的过氧化物酶(POD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)、超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、抗坏血酸过氧化物酶(APX)的活性以及可溶性蛋白质、丙二醛(MDA)和游离脯氨酸(Pro)含量的变化。结果表明,海莲幼苗能耐受50 mmol/L的Al~(3+)胁迫处理,具有较高的耐铝性。但在50 mmol/L Al~(3+)处理时,海莲幼苗叶片和根系的质膜系统膜脂过氧化加重,MDA含量增加;细胞活性氧代谢失衡。在保护酶系统中,Al~(3+)处理促进了叶片中APX和POD活性的提高,降低了CAT的活性,SOD的活性呈下降趋势;海莲根部POD和SOD活性均显著提高,而CAT活性下降。25~50 mmol/LAl~(3+)处理下,海莲叶片和根部可溶性蛋白质含量均显著下降;Pro的含量在叶片和根均有显著增加。 相似文献

Plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) may help to reduce the toxicity of heavy metals on plants growing in polluted soils. In this work, Sulla coronaria inoculated with four Cd resistant bacteria (two Pseudomonas spp. and two Rhizobium sullae) were cultivated in hydroponic conditions treated by Cd; long time treatment 50 µM CdCl2 for 30 days and short time treatment; 100 µM CdCl2 for 7 days. Results showed that inoculation with Cd resistant PGPB enhanced plant biomass, thus shoot and root dry weights of control plants were enhanced by 148 and 35% respectively after 7 days. Co-inoculation of plants treated with 50 and 100 µM Cd increased plant biomasses as compared to Cd-treated and uninoculated plants. Cadmium treatment induced lipid peroxidation in plant tissues measured through MDA content in short 7 days 100 µM treatment. Antioxidant enzyme studies showed that inoculation of control plants enhanced APX, SOD and CAT activities after 30 days in shoots and SOD, APX, SOD, GPOX in roots. Application of 50 µM CdCl2 stimulated all enzymes in shoots and decreased SOD and CAT activities in roots. Moreover, 100 µM of CdCl2 increased SOD, APX, CAT and GPOX activities in shoots and increased significantly CAT activity in roots. Metal accumulation depended on Cd concentration, plant organ and time of treatment. Furthermore, the inoculation enhanced Cd uptake in roots by 20% in all treatments. The cultivation of this symbiosis in Cd contaminated soil or in heavy metal hydroponically treated medium, showed that inoculation improved plant biomass and increased Cd uptake especially in roots. Therefore, the present study established that co-inoculation of S. coronaria by a specific consortium of heavy metal resistant PGPB formed a symbiotic system useful for soil phytostabilization. 相似文献

We studied how the relationship between cadmium (Cd) toxicity and oxidative stress influenced the growth, photosynthetic efficiency,
lipid peroxidation, and activity of ntioxidative enzymes in the roots and leaves of rice(Oryza sativa L Dongjin). Plants were exposed to Cd for 21 d. Both seedling growth and photosynthetic efficiency decreased gradually with
increasing cadmium concentrations. Lipid peroxidation increased slowly in both roots and leaves, causing oxidative stress.
However, each tissue type responded differently to Cd concentrations with regard to the induction/ inhibition of antioxidative
enzymes. The activity of Superoxide dismutase (SOD) increased in both roots and leaves. Ascorbate peroxidase (APX) activity
increased in leaves treated with up to 0.25 μM Cd, then decreased gradually at higher concentrations. In contrast, APX activity
in roots increased and remained constant between 0.25 and 25 μM Cd. Enhanced peroxidase (POD) activity was recorded for treatments
with up to 25/M Cd, gradually decreasing at higher concentrations in the leaves but remaining unchanged in the roots. Catalase (CAT) activity
increased in the roots, but decreased in the leaves, whereas the activity of glutathione reductase (GR) was enhanced in both
roots and leaves, where it remained elevated at higher Cd concentrations. These results suggest that rice seedlings tend to
cope with free radicals generated by Cd through coordinated, enhanced activities of the antioxidative enzymes involved in
detoxification. 相似文献

In the present study, the physiological responses of Nitraria tangutorum Bobr. seedlings to NaCl stress and the regulatory function of exogenous application of salicylic acid (SA) were investigated. NaCl in low concentration (100 mM) increased while in higher concentrations (200–400 mM) decreased the individual plant dry weights (wt) of seedlings. Decreased relative water content (RWC) and chlorophyll content were observed in the leaves of seedlings subjected to salinity stress (100–400 mM NaCl). Furthermore, NaCl stress significantly increased electrolyte leakage and malondialdehyde (MDA) content. The levels of osmotic adjustment solutes including proline, soluble sugars, and soluble protein were enhanced under NaCl treatments as compared to the control. In contrast, exogenous application of SA (0.5–1.5 mM) to the roots of seedlings showed notable amelioration effects on the inhibition of individual plant dry wt, RWC, and chlorophyll content. The increases in electrolyte leakage and MDA content in the leaves of NaCl-treated seedlings were markedly inhibited by SA application. The SA application further increased the contents of proline, soluble sugars, and soluble protein. The activities of antioxidant enzymes including superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), catalase (CAT), and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) were up-regulated by NaCl stress and the activities of SOD, POD, and CAT were further enhanced by SA treatments. Application of SA in low concentration (0.5 mM) enhanced while in higher concentrations (1.0 and 1.5 mM) inhibited APX activities in leaves of NaCl-treated seedlings. These results indicate that SA effectively alleviated the adverse effects of NaCl stress on N. tangutorum. 相似文献

We studied the effects of different concentrations of mercury (0.0 to 100 μM) on growth and photosynthetic efficiency in rice
plants treated for 21 d. In addition, we investigated how this metal affected the malondialdehyde (MDA) content as well as
the activity of five antioxidant enzymes — superoxide dismutase (SOD), ascorbate peroxidase (APX), glutathione reductase (GR),
guaiacol peroxidase (POD), and catalase (CAT). Photosynthetic efficiency (Fμ/Fm) and seedling growth decreased as the concentration of Hg was increased in the growth media. Plants also responded to Hg-induced
oxidative stress by changing the levels of their antioxidative enzymes. Enhanced lipid peroxidation was observed in both leaves
and roots that had been exposed to oxidative stress, with leaves showing higher enzymatic activity. Both SOD and APX activities
increased in treatments with up to 50 μM Hg, then decreased at higher concentrations. In the leaves, both CAT and POD activities
increased gradually, with CAT levels decreasing at higher concentrations. In the roots, however, CAT activity remained unchanged
while that of POD increased a bit more than did the control for concentrations of up to 10 μM Hg. At higher Hg levels, both
CAT and POD activities decreased. GR activity increased in leaves exposed to no more than 0.25 μM Hg, then decreased gradually.
In contrast, its activity was greatly inhibited in the roots. Based on these results, we suggest that when rice plants are
exposed to different concentrations of mercury, their antioxidative enzymes become involved in defense mechanisms against
the free radicals that are induced by this stress. 相似文献

Copper accumulation, subcellular localization and ecophysiological responses to excess copper were investigated using pot
culture experiments with two Daucus carota L. populations, from a copper mine and an uncontaminated field site, respectively. Significant differences of malondialdehyde
(MDA) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) concentrations and antioxidant enzyme [superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and ascorbate peroxidase (APX)] activities
of leaves under Cu treatment were observed between the two populations. At high Cu concentrations (400 and 800 mg kg−1), a significant increase in contents of MDA and H2O2 but a significant decrease in activities of SOD, CAT and APX were observed in uncontaminated population. Contrarily, the
population from copper mine maintained a lower level of MDA and H2O2 but higher activities of SOD, CAT and APX. Copper accumulation in roots and shoots increased significantly with the increase
of copper concentrations in soils in the two populations. No significant difference of the total Cu in roots and shoots was
found between the two populations at same copper treatment. There were also no striking differences of cell wall-bound Cu
and protoplasts Cu of leaves between the two populations. The difference was that Cu concentration in vacuoles of leaves was
1.5-fold higher in contaminated site (CS) population than in uncontaminated site population. Hence, more efficient vacuolar
sequestration for Cu and maintaining high activities of SOD, CAT and APX in the CS population played an important role in
maintaining high Cu tolerance. 相似文献

Comparative studies of H2O2 detoxifying enzymes in green and greening barley seedlings under cadmium stress 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Cadmium(Cd) stress induced alterations in the activities of several representatives of the enzymatic antioxidant defense system such as guiacol peroxidase (POD), catalase (CAT) and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) were comparatively studied in green and greening barley seedlings that represent two different stages of plant development. Although roots were the main site of Cd accumulation, 1.5–3% of Cd was translocated into leaves and it induced oxidative damage which was indicated by the reduced chlorophyll and increased malondialdehyde content of the leaves. In roots of both types of seedlings exposed to various Cd concentrations, the APX activity was enhanced without any increase in the activity of POD. In leaves, however, elevated activities of both POD and APX could be observed. In roots of green seedlings at high concentration of Cd, the APX activity was reduced on the fourth day of culture but no inhibition was found in the POD activity. Leaf CAT which mainly represented the peroxisomal enzyme activity did not display any changes under Cd stress. Our results show that at both developmental stages barley seedlings exhibit a well-defined activity of the enzymatic antioxidant system, which operates differentially in roots and shoots subjected to Cd stress. 相似文献

采用土培方法,研究了广西某锰矿区未开采区、探矿区、恢复区、开采区和尾矿坝的土壤对酸模叶蓼(Polygonum lapathifolium Linn.)的生长、Mn吸收及抗氧化酶系统的影响。结果表明,酸模叶蓼的根、茎、叶中Mn含量随着土壤Mn浓度的增加而增加,Mn含量依次为根茎叶;尾矿坝土壤中(T6处理),叶片Mn含量达到最大值5566.9 mg/kg。锰污染显著提高了酸模叶蓼叶片中H_2O_2和MDA的含量,但锰污染对酸模叶蓼的生物量无显著影响。锰污染土壤显著降低了酸模叶蓼叶片中SOD、POD、APX和As A等抗氧化物的活性,而CAT的活性则呈先上升后下降的趋势,表明Mn污染促使酸模叶蓼启动了抗氧化酶系统;Mn污染同时显著提高了酸模叶蓼叶片中-SH、GSH和PCs的含量,表明-SH、GSH和PCs在解毒酸模叶蓼Mn毒害的过程中起重要作用。 相似文献

抗氧化系统在海州香薷耐铜机制中的作用 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
利用溶液培养的方法研究了铜胁迫下海州香薷根系和地上部分MDA含量,各种抗氧化酶及非酶抗氧化系统的变化。结果表明,不同浓度铜处理8d后,海州香薷根系中MDA含量显著增加,叶片中则无显著变化;根系中SOD、POD、CAT、APX、GR活性和叶片中POD、SOD的活性随铜处理浓度的增加而显著增加,而50-200μmol·L^-1。铜处理条件下叶片中CAT、APX、GR活性与对照相比无明显差异。除CAT外,根系中这些抗氧化酶的活性都远远大于叶片中的活力。另外,实验结果表明,50μmol·L^-1 Cu^2+对海州香薷的生物量并没有显著影响,当铜浓度达到100和200μmol·L^-1。时,铜则可显著降低海州香薷根系的生物量,对地上部生物量仍无显著影响。 相似文献

Seedlings of mangrove plant Bruguiera gymnorrhiza cultured in sand with Hoagland’s nutrient solution were treated with 1 to 30 mM Cd(NO3)2 or Pb(NO3)2 for 2 months. In all Cd/Pb treatments, the malondialdehyde content increased while the chlorophyll content declined. Peroxidase
(POD) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities in roots increased at moderate Cd/Pb concentrations (1–10 mM), whereas decreased
at higher concentrations (20–30 mM). Catalase (CAT) activity in roots was inhibited by 1–10 mM Cd but enhanced by 1–10 mM
Pb. The activities of POD, SOD and CAT in leaves were less affected by Cd and Pb than in roots. A new SOD and three CAT isoenzymes
were induced by Pb. In contrast, no additional SOD and CAT isoenzymes were induced by Cd. 相似文献

Changes in the activity of antioxidant enzymes including superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), catalase (CAT) and the contents of malondialdehyde (MDA), chlorophyll, free proline and phytochelatins (PCs) in Solanum nigrum, the newly discovered Cd-hyperaccumulator were examined and compared with a non-hyperaccumulator Solanum melongena. It was indicated that leaf SOD and POD activity of S. nigrum was significantly higher than that of S. melongena. The Cd treatments significantly increased root SOD activity, leaf POD activity, and CAT activity and free proline content in the leaves and roots of S. nigrum. On the contrary, the Cd treatments decreased SOD activity, and did not change CAT activity in the leaves and roots of S. melongena. Moreover, there were no significant differences in free proline levels in the roots of S. melongena. These results validated that S. nigrum had a greater capacity than S. melongena to adapt to oxidative stress caused by Cd and free proline accumulation might be responsible for the tolerance of S. nigrum to Cd. Treated with 10 μg Cd g−1, growth of S. nigrum and its contents of chlorophyll and MDA were basically unaffected. In contrast, there were a decrease in the growth and chlorophyll content, and an increase in MDA in the roots of S. melongena. Although lipid peroxidation was promoted in both the hyperaccumulator and non-hyperaccumulator by high Cd stress, the greater increase took place in the tissues of S. melongena. The PCs level in roots of S. nigrum was significantly lower than that of S. melongena. On the contrary, the content of leaf PCs was much higher in S. nigrum than that in S. melongena. These results further suggested that antioxidative defense in the Cd-hyperaccumulator might play an important role in Cd tolerance, and PCs synthesis is not the primary reason for Cd tolerance although PCs in S. nigrum increased significantly by Cd. 相似文献

A greenhouse hydroponic experiment was performed using Cd-sensitive (cv. Dong 17) and Cd-tolerant (Weisuobuzhi) barley seedlings
to evaluate how different genotypes responded to cadmium (Cd) toxicity in the presence of sodium nitroprusside (SNP), a nitric
oxide (NO) donor. Results showed that 5 μM Cd increased the accumulation of O2•−, H2O2, and malondialdehyde (MDA) but reduced plant height, chlorophyll content, net photosynthetic rate (P
n), and biomass, with a much more severe response in the Cd-sensitive genotype. Antioxidant enzyme activities increased significantly
under Cd stress in the roots of the tolerant genotype, whereas in leaves of the sensitive genotype, superoxide dismutase (SOD)
and ascorbate peroxide (APX), especially cytosol ascorbate peroxidase (cAPX), decreased after 5–15 days Cd exposure. Moreover,
Cd induces NO synthesis by stimulating nitrate reductase and nitric oxide synthetase-like enzymes in roots/leaves. A Cd-induced
NO transient increase in roots of the Cd-tolerant genotype might partly contribute to its Cd tolerance. Exogenous NO dramatically
alleviated Cd toxicity, markedly diminished Cd-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) and MDA accumulation, ameliorated Cd-induced
damage to leaf/root ultrastructure, and increased chlorophyll content and P
n. External NO counteracted the pattern of alterations in certain antioxidant enzymes induced by Cd; for example, it significantly
elevated the depressed SOD, APX, and catalase (CAT) activities in the Cd-sensitive genotype after 10- and 15-day treatments.
Furthermore, NO significantly increased stromal APX and Mn-SOD activities in both genotypes and upregulated Cd-induced decrease
in cAPX activity and gene expression of root/leaf cAPX and leaf CAT1 in the Cd-sensitive genotype. These data suggest that under Cd stress, NO, as a potent antioxidant, protects barley seedlings
against oxidative damage by directly and indirectly scavenging ROS and helps to maintain stability and integrity of the subcellular
structure. 相似文献

The responses of antioxidant enzymes (AOE) ascorbate peroxidase (APX), glutathione reductase (GR), superoxide dismutase (SOD),
and catalase (CAT) in soluble protein extracts from leaves and roots of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Samsun NN) plants to the drought stress, salinity and enhanced zinc concentration were investigated. The studied tobacco
included wild-type (WT) and transgenic plants (AtCKX2) harbouring the cytokinin oxidase/dehydrogenase gene under control of
35S promoter from Arabidopsis thaliana (AtCKX2). The transgenic plants exhibited highly enhanced CKX activity and decreased contents of cytokinins and abscisic acid in
both leaves and roots, altered phenotype, retarded growth, and postponed senescence onset. Under control conditions, the AtCKX2
plants exhibited noticeably higher activity of GR in leaves and APX and SOD in roots. CAT activity in leaves always decreased
upon stresses in WT while increased in AtCKX2 plants. On the contrary, the SOD activity was enhanced in WT but declined in
AtCKX2 leaves. In roots, the APX activity prevailingly increased in WT while mainly decreased in AtCKX2 in response to the
stresses. Both WT and AtCKX2 leaves as well as roots exhibited elevated abscisic acid content and increased CKX activity under
all stresses while endogenous CKs and IAA contents were not much affected by stress treatments in either WT or transgenic
plants. 相似文献

The effects of foliar spraying with spermidine (Spd), ranging in concentration from 0.25 to 0.50mmol/L, on the antioxidant system under Cd2 stress (range 0.1- 0.2 mmol/L Cd2 ) in Typha latifolia L.grown hydroponically were investigated in order to offer a referenced evidence for an understanding of the mechanism by which polyamines (PAs) relieve the damage to plants by heavy metal and improve the phytoremediation efficiency of heavy metal-contaminated water. The results showed that Cd2 stress inhydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and malondialdehyde (MDA) contents in both leaves and caudices. With theexception of superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in the leaves, an increase in the activities of catalase (CAT), guaiacol peroxidase (GPX), and glutathione reductase (GR) was observed in both leaves and caudices,SOD activity was increased in caudices, and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) activity was increased in leaves following Cd2 treatment. The reduced glutathione (GSH) content in both leaves and caudices and the reductive ascorbate content in leaves was obviously increased, which were prompted by the application of exogenous Spd. Spraying with Spd increased the activity of GR and APX in both leaves and caudices,whereas the activity of SOD, CAT, and GPX was increased only in caudices following spraying with Spd.with Spd. The decrease in MDA was more obvious following the application of 0.25 than 0.50 mmol/L Spd.It is supposed that exogenous Spd elevated the tolerance of T. latifolia under Cd2 stress primarily by increasing GR activity and the GSH level. 相似文献

In this study, the effect of cadmium (Cd) uptake and concentration on some growth and biochemical responses were investigated in Malva parviflora under Cd treatments including 0, 10, 50 and 100 µM. The shoots and roots were able to accumulate Cd. However, increased Cd dose led to a considerable Cd content in the roots. Cd stress decreased growth, increased lipid peroxidation and also enhanced proline and ascorbic acid contents in both shoots and roots. Chlorophyll and carotenoid contents decreased in the plants with the increasing Cd concentration. While the activities of catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) increased in the shoots under different Cd doses, these activities decreased in the roots as compared to the control. Both shoots and roots demonstrated a significant increase in guaiacol peroxidase activity in response to Cd stress. Contrary to the aboveground parts, the roots subjected to Cd doses showed a rise in protein content. Despite higher Cd content in the roots, it seems that CAT and SOD do not play a key role in detoxification of Cd-induced oxidative stress. These findings confirm that reduced biomass and growth under Cd stress can be due to an increase in oxidative stress and a decrease in photosynthetic pigment content. The present study clearly indicates that the shoots and roots exploit different tolerance behaviors to alleviate Cd-induced oxidative stress in M. parviflora. 相似文献

渗透胁迫对黑麦幼苗活性氧和抗氧化酶活性的影响 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
用20%聚乙二醇(PEG 6000)研究了渗透胁迫对黑麦(Secale cereale L.)幼苗活性氧(reactive oxygen species, ROS)和主要抗氧化酶—— 超氧化物歧化酶(superoxide dismutase, SOD)、过氧化氢酶(catalase, CAT)、抗坏血酸过氧化物酶(ascorbate peroxidase, APX)和谷胱甘肽还原酶(glutathione reductase, GR)活性的影响。结果表明, 与对照相比, PEG处理明显提高了叶子和根中丙二醛(malondialdehyde, MDA)的含量、ROS的水平和以上4种抗氧化酶的活性。渗透胁迫下,叶子和根中MDA和ROS水平变化的规律基本相似, 但抗氧化酶活性在2种器官中表现不完全相同, 叶子中CAT的活性在对照和处理中无显著差异, 但在根中差异明显, 表明叶子中SOD、APX和GR在植物应答渗透胁迫中起重要作用, 而根中这4种抗氧化酶都参与植物对胁迫的反应。GR活性随PEG处理变化幅度显著高于其它抗氧化酶, 表明GR在黑麦应答渗透胁迫中所起作用可能强于其它抗氧化酶。 相似文献

Salinization usually plays a primary role in soil degradation, which consequently reduces agricultural productivity. In this study, the effects of salinity on growth parameters, ion, chlorophyll, and proline content, photosynthesis, antioxidant enzyme activities, and lipid peroxidation of two cotton cultivars, [CCRI-79 (salt tolerant) and Simian 3 (salt sensitive)], were evaluated. Salinity was investigated at 0 mM, 80 mM, 160 mM, and 240 mM NaCl for 7 days. Salinity induced morphological and physiological changes, including a reduction in the dry weight of leaves and roots, root length, root volume, average root diameter, chlorophyll and proline contents, net photosynthesis and stomatal conductance. In addition, salinity caused ion imbalance in plants as shown by higher Na+ and Cl− contents and lower K+, Ca2+, and Mg2+ concentrations. Ion imbalance was more pronounced in CCRI-79 than in Simian3. In the leaves and roots of the salt-tolerant cultivar CCRI-79, increasing levels of salinity increased the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), ascorbate peroxidase (APX), and glutathione reductase (GR), but reduced catalase (CAT) activity. The activities of SOD, CAT, APX, and GR in the leaves and roots of CCRI-79 were higher than those in Simian 3. CAT and APX showed the greatest H2O2 scavenging activity in both leaves and roots. Moreover, CAT and APX activities in conjunction with SOD seem to play an essential protective role in the scavenging process. These results indicate that CCRI-79 has a more effective protection mechanism and mitigated oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation by maintaining higher antioxidant activities than those in Simian 3. Overall, the chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, and Chl (a+b) contents, net photosynthetic rate and stomatal conductance, SOD, CAT, APX, and GR activities showed the most significant variation between the two cotton cultivars. 相似文献

The present study was carried out to compare the effect of NaCl on growth, cell membrane damage, and antioxidant defences
in the halophyte Crithmum maritimum L. (sea fennel). Physiological and biochemical changes were investigated under control (0 mM NaCl) and saline conditions
(100 and 300 mM NaCl). Biomass and growth of roots were more sensitive to NaCl than leaves. Roots were distinguished from
leaves by increased electrolyte leakage and high malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration. Superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase
(CAT) and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) activities, ascorbic acid (AA) and glutathione (GSH) concentrations were lower in the
roots than in the leaves of control plants. The different activity patterns of antioxidant enzymes in response to 100 and
300 mM NaCl indicated that leaves and roots reacted differently to salt stress. Leaf CAT, APX and glutathione reductase (GR)
activities were lowest at 300 mM NaCl, but they were unaffected by 100 mM NaCl. Only SOD activity was reduced in the latter
treatment. Root SOD activity was significantly decreased in response to 300 mM NaCl and root APX activity was significantly
higher in plants treated with 100 and 300 mM compared to the controls. The other activities in roots were insensitive to salt.
The concentration of AA decreased in leaves at 100 and 300 mM NaCl, and in roots at 300 mM NaCl, when compared to control
plants. The concentrations of GSH in NaCl-treated leaves and roots were not significantly different from the controls. In
both organs, AA and GSH were predominating in the total pool in ascorbic acid and glutathione, under control or saline conditions. 相似文献
