长穗薄冰草（Thinopyrum ponticum）对盐碱胁迫的生理响应

实验采用不同浓度（以干土重0.3%、0.5%、0.7%和0.9%计）Na2SO4、NaCl、NaHCO3、Na2CO3,Na2SO4：NaCl=1：1、NaHCO3：Na2CO3=1：1和Na2SO4：NaCl：NaHCO3：Na2CO3=1：1：1：1对长穗薄冰草进行胁迫,研究长穗薄冰草对盐碱胁迫的生理响应.结果表明：根系活力、SOD活性随盐碱浓度的增加逐渐下降,脯氨酸含量呈上升趋势,叶绿素含量除Na2SO4处理组外,呈先上升后下降的趋势.其中碱性盐（NaHCO3、Na2CO3、NaHCO3：Na2CO3=1：1、Na2SO4：NaCl：NaHCO3：Na2CO3=1：1：1：1）对长穗薄冰草的胁变效应较中性盐（Na2SO4、NaCl、Na2SO4：NaCl=1：1）大,以Na2SO4处理组对长穗薄冰草的影响最小,0.7% Na2CO3是长穗薄冰草正常生长的临界浓度.

【目的】了解不同盐分配比和不同浓度梯度复合盐碱胁迫对‘赤霞珠’葡萄（Vitis vinfera ‘Cabernet Sauvignon’）幼苗生长和抗逆生理指标的影响，确认其耐盐碱性范围及其耐盐碱能力。【方法】 以1年生‘赤霞珠’自根苗为试材，用NaCl、Na2SO4、NaHCO3、Na2CO3按不同比例混合配置中性盐、弱碱性盐、强碱性盐3组复合盐溶液，每组各设置50、100、150 mmol/L3个浓度梯度，以不做处理的溶液作为对照，于幼苗生长期间进行定期浇灌处理，通过室内盆栽试验来模拟不同类型、不同程度盐碱胁迫，在处理后不同时期测定幼苗生长形态、生理及光合指标。【结果】（1）茎粗和叶面积随盐胁迫浓度增大，呈现先增大后减小的趋势， 而‘赤霞珠’幼苗的株高基本呈现下降趋势。其中，中性、弱碱性、强碱性盐胁迫组间相比，‘赤霞珠’幼苗株高在强碱性盐胁迫组150 mmol/L处理10 d、150 mmol/L处理40 d都较同期中性、弱碱性组相应浓度显著降低；（2）随着盐浓度的增大，SOD活性及MDA含量呈先增大后减小的趋势，而‘赤霞珠’幼苗叶片的POD活性呈现缓慢增加的趋势，强碱性盐胁迫组叶片POD活性在处理30-50d时均高于相同浓度的中性、弱碱性盐胁迫处理组，但随着时间处理延长，到处理60 d后逐渐低于同浓度其他两处理组，其中150 mmol/L浓度表现得更明显。；（3）‘赤霞珠’葡萄幼苗胞间CO2浓度、净光合速率、蒸腾速率随着盐碱浓度的增加主要呈下降趋势，其胞间CO2浓度与净光合速率均为50 mmol/L浓度处理时较高。在同期相同盐浓度处理下，叶片净光合速率在强碱性盐胁迫150 mmol/L浓度处理75 d时显著低于同期中性、弱碱性处理组。（4）在相同浓度条件下，强碱性盐胁迫处理的幼苗株高及最大叶面积都显著低于中性盐和弱碱性盐处理组；叶片SOD活性在50 mmol/L中性盐胁迫处理下较CK显著提高了27%；叶片MDA含量在150 mmol/L强碱性盐胁迫下随着时间延长显著逐渐增加。【结论】‘赤霞珠’幼苗生长在盐碱胁迫下受到一定限制，但其株高、叶面积、胞间CO2浓度、净光合速率、蒸腾速率在50 mmol/L浓度处理下均呈现较好的增长趋势，而其株高及茎粗在强碱性盐胁迫150 mmol/L盐碱溶液处理下均增长最不明显；在一定低浓度浓度范围内50 mmol/L盐碱处理有利于赤霞珠葡萄幼苗生长。     

腐植酸浸种对盐碱胁迫下小麦幼苗抗氧化系统的影响

对龙麦26和克旱16两种不同基因型春小麦品种进行腐植酸浸种处理,研究了腐植酸对盐(NaCl)、碱(Na CO3)两种胁迫下小麦幼苗抗氧化系统的影响.结果表明:盐碱胁迫下小麦幼苗叶片脯氨酸含量增加,膜透性增强,地上部鲜质量降低;盐胁迫下,过氧化氢酶(CAT)活性升高,过氧化物酶(POD)活性降低,超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活性先升后降,而碱胁迫下CAT和POD活性均升高,SOD活性降低;碱胁迫处理的小麦幼苗叶片抗氧化酶系统活性高于同浓度的盐胁迫处理;腐植酸浸种提高了小麦叶片谷胱甘肽含量,提高了SOD和CAT活性,有效缓解了盐碱胁迫对幼苗生长的影响.不同基因型小麦品种在抵御盐碱胁迫的能力和机制上存在一定差异,且与盐离子组成、浓度间存在一定互作,并受浸种方式调控.     

NaCl和Na2CO3胁迫对栓皮栎种子萌发及幼苗生长的影响

为了阐明栓皮栎种子萌发期对盐碱胁迫的耐受性,研究了不同浓度(0、50、100、200和400 mmol/L)NaCl和Na2CO3胁迫对其种子萌发、生长、保护酶活性和有机渗透调节物质等的影响,结果表明:(1)盐碱胁迫对栓皮栎种子的萌发率和发芽指数均没有显著影响;随着Na+浓度的升高,NaCl和Na2CO3处理下的胚根长度、胚根生长速率、胚根鲜重均受到抑制,呈现下降趋势;活力指数和耐盐指数在NaCl胁迫下表现为较低浓度(50 mmol/L)促进,较高浓度(100,200,400 mmol/L)抑制,而在Na2CO3处理下则不断下降;相对盐害率在两种处理下均表现波动趋势。(2)通过建立活力指数、胚根长度等与Na+浓度的回归方程,发现在NaCl胁迫下栓皮栎种子活力指数、胚根鲜重、胚根长度和胚根生长速率的临界值分别为300.0、300.0、333.6、369.6 mmol/L。(3)在NaCl和Na2CO3胁迫下,随Na+浓度的增加,丙二醛含量增幅显著;NaCl处理下的SOD(superoxide dismutase)活性呈现先升高后降低的趋势,而Na2CO3处理下则均低于对照;POD(peroxidase)活性变化不显著;CAT(catalase)活性均表现为先降低后升高;脯氨酸、可溶性蛋白和可溶性糖含量均随着Na+浓度的升高而呈现不同程度上升趋势。(4)等Na+浓度时,NaCl处理下的各项生长指标均高于Na2CO3处理,丙二醛、保护酶活性及渗透调节物质含量均低于Na2CO3处理,说明Na2CO3对栓皮栎种子的影响比NaCl更为显著。     

盐碱协同胁迫对向日葵抗氧化酶系统的影响

根据中国东北盐碱土壤特点,将4种盐NaCl、NaHCO3、Na2SO4和Na2CO3按不同比例混合,模拟出25种盐度和pH值各不相同的复杂盐碱条件(盐浓度为50～250 mmol/L,pH值为712～1046),并对向日葵苗进行盐碱混合胁迫处理,研究了向日葵超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)和过氧化物酶(POD)酶等抗氧化酶系统和丙二醛(MDA)的盐碱协同胁迫效应．结果表明, 向日葵抗氧化物酶活性强弱同时与盐度和碱度密切相关,3种抗氧化物酶活性对于盐浓度的反应相似,均为其含量随着盐浓度的升高开始逐渐升高然后下降,而对于pH的影响,不同酶反应结果不同．即随着pH值升高,SOD酶活性和CAT酶活性降低,而POD酶活性反应则是随着pH值升高活性也升高．双向方差分析(ANOVA)结果表明：盐碱效应对于3种酶活力的影响是显著的．其中,盐效应对POD和SOD活性的影响比pH值的影响大,而pH值对CAT活性的影响效应比盐效应大．除SOD外,盐碱效应的交互作用显著 (P<0001)．抗氧化酶系统和MDA含量两者间相关性和逐步回归分析表明,3种酶对MDA的影响效应随其强度不同呈现显著不同．其中SOD是1个主导因子,CAT 处于次位, 而POD的影响不大,甚至可以忽略．     

NaHS对NaHCO_3胁迫下黑籽南瓜种子萌发及生理特性的影响

以黑籽南瓜(Cucurbita ficifolia)种子为试材,研究了外施不同浓度的NaHS对NaHCO3胁迫下种子萌发及生理特性的影响。结果表明,NaHCO3胁迫显著抑制了黑籽南瓜种子的发芽率、胚轴长和胚根长,降低了种子萌发过程中的可溶性糖含量,抑制了α-淀粉酶、β-淀粉酶、SOD及POD活性。而外施不同浓度的NaHS显著促进了NaHCO3胁迫下黑籽南瓜萌发种子胚轴和胚根的生长,提高了可溶性糖含量及α-淀粉酶、β-淀粉酶、SOD和POD活性,降低了MDA含量;外施其它盐类(Na2S、Na2SO4、NaHSO4和NaHSO3)及不同pH值(pH5.8–7.8)的Na2HPO4-NaH2PO4缓冲液对NaHCO3胁迫下黑籽南瓜种子的萌发则无影响。外施NaHS可有效缓解NaHCO3胁迫对黑籽南瓜种子萌发的抑制作用,其缓解效应可能与其释放的H2S有关。     

NaCl和Na2CO3胁迫对桑树幼苗生长和光合特性的影响

以1年生“青龙桑”幼苗为试验材料,研究了中性盐(NaCl)和碱性盐(Na2CO3)胁迫下桑树幼苗的生长和叶片光合特性.结果表明:盐胁迫明显降低了桑树幼苗的株高、叶片数、生物量和叶片的光合能力.随着Na+浓度的增加,桑树叶片的气孔导度、蒸腾速率、净光合速率、实际光化学效率、电子传递速率和光化学猝灭系数明显降低,过剩光能以非光化学猝灭形式耗散的比例增加,桑树叶片的光能转化效率和光合能力下降.在Na+浓度＜150 mmol·L-1时,桑树幼苗的光合能力和生长受到的抑制较小,通过增加根冠比进一步适应盐胁迫,但这种保护机制随着盐浓度的增加逐渐降低.在Na2CO3胁迫下,＞50 mmol·L-1 Na+浓度对桑树的生长和光合能力表现出较强的抑制作用,并随Na+浓度的增加,抑制程度加大.在NaCl＜ 150mmol·L-1时,桑树的光合能力主要依赖植株形态和光合代谢双重途径适应中性盐逆境,而在NaC1浓度＞150 mmol·L-1和碱性盐胁迫下,其主要依赖光合代谢来适应逆境.     

NaCl和Na2CO3胁迫对桑树幼苗生长和光合特性的影响

以1年生“青龙桑”幼苗为试验材料,研究了中性盐(NaCl)和碱性盐(Na2CO3)胁迫下桑树幼苗的生长和叶片光合特性.结果表明： 盐胁迫明显降低了桑树幼苗的株高、叶片数、生物量和叶片的光合能力.随着Na+浓度的增加,桑树叶片的气孔导度、蒸腾速率、净光合速率、实际光化学效率、电子传递速率和光化学猝灭系数明显降低,过剩光能以非光化学猝灭形式耗散的比例增加,桑树叶片的光能转化效率和光合能力下降.在Na+浓度＜150 mmol·L-1时,桑树幼苗的光合能力和生长受到的抑制较小,通过增加根冠比进一步适应盐胁迫,但这种保护机制随着盐浓度的增加逐渐降低.在Na2CO3胁迫下,＞50 mmol·L-1Na+浓度对桑树的生长和光合能力表现出较强的抑制作用,并随Na+浓度的增加,抑制程度加大.在NaCl＜150 mmol·L-1时,桑树的光合能力主要依赖植株形态和光合代谢双重途径适应中性盐逆境,而在NaCl浓度＞150 mmol·L-1和碱性盐胁迫下,其主要依赖光合代谢来适应逆境.     

松嫩平原碱化草甸朝鲜碱茅、獐茅耐盐碱特性的比较研究

本研究通过野外调查与室内实验相结合的方法,从生态学、生理学方面探讨了松嫩平原碱化草甸朝鲜碱茅和獐毛耐盐碱的特性,结果表明：两种植物均生长在含盐、潮湿而贫瘠的土壤上,朝鲜碱茅分布地段的土壤多含碱性盐(Na2CO3)。而獐毛所在地的土壤则多含中性盐(NaCl),这些体现出它们对盐碱适应性的差异。不同浓度的NaCl、Na2CO3胁迫对这两种植物的细胞膜透性、游离脯氨酸含量有明显影响。均以logistic曲线y=k/(1+ea-bx)或直线方程：y=a+bx形式较好地表达出来。说明朝鲜碱茅对NaCl的胁迫敏感,獐毛则对Na2CO3的胁迫敏感。两种植物在自然条件下的生态适应与实验条件下的生理适应相近。

燕麦对松嫩草地三种主要盐分胁迫的生理适应策略

为明确燕麦幼苗对松嫩盐碱草地3种主要盐分Na Cl、Na HCO_3和Na_2CO_3的适应机制,设定不同浓度梯度(48—144 mmol/L)的胁迫处理液,测定燕麦幼苗的生长与生理指标变化。结果表明,尽管试验设定的Na Cl浓度并不影响幼苗的存活率,但在各组胁迫处理下,随着浓度的增加,燕麦幼苗的分蘖数、植株高度、茎叶与根系的生物量均呈下降趋势,下降幅度为Na_2CO_3Na HCO_3Na Cl。另外,与Na Cl胁迫相比,Na_2CO_3与Na HCO_3胁迫下茎叶与根中积累了更多的有毒Na~+,同时K~+下降幅度也更大,并且根系中含有更高的Na~+与更低的K~+以及更高的Na~+/K~+。在Na Cl胁迫下,燕麦幼苗积累大量的无机Cl~-和脯氨酸来维持细胞内的渗透与离子平衡,而Na HCO_3与Na_2CO_3胁迫造成了燕麦幼苗体内阴离子的亏缺,此时幼苗主要通过积累大量的有机酸和更多的脯氨酸来维持渗透与离子平衡。上述结果表明,碱性盐Na_2CO_3与Na HCO_3对植物的胁迫伤害程度大于中性盐Na Cl,并且Na_2CO_3的毒害效应最强,而燕麦幼苗对不同的盐分胁迫伤害也有会产生不同的生理适应策略。     

Effects of various mixed salt-alkaline stresses on growth,photosynthesis, and photosynthetic pigment concentrations of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Medicago ruthenica</Emphasis> seedlings

Soil salinization and alkalinization frequently co-occur in naturally saline and alkaline soils. To understand the characteristics of mixed salt-alkali stress and adaptive response of Medicago ruthenica seedlings to salt-alkali stress, water content of shoots, growth and photosynthetic characteristics of seedlings under 30 salt-alkaline combinations (salinity 24–120 mM and pH 7.03–10.32) with mixed salts (NaCl, Na₂SO₄, NaHCO₃, and Na₂CO₃) were examined. The indices were significantly affected by both salinity and pH. The interactive effects between salt and alkali stresses were significant, except for photosynthetic pigments. Water content of shoots, relative growth rates of shoots and roots and pigment concentrations showed decreasing trends with increasing salinity and alkalinity. The root activity under high alkalinity and salinity treatments gradually decreased, but was stimulated by the combined effects of low alkalinity and salinity. The survival rate decreased with increased salinity, except at pH 7.03–7.26 when all plants survived. Net photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance and intercellular CO₂ concentration decreased with increased salinity and pH. M. ruthenica tolerated the stress of high salt concentration when alkali concentration was low, and the synergistic effects of high alkali and high salt concentrations lead to the death of some or all seedlings. M. ruthenica appeared to be saltalkali tolerant. Reducing the salt concentration or pH based on the salt components in the soil may be helpful to abate damage from mixed salt-alkaline stress.     

四翅滨藜生理生化特征对盐胁迫的响应

采用温室盆栽试验研究四翅滨藜(Atriplex canescens)幼苗株高、地径、生物量、净光合速率、蒸腾速率、气孔导度、叶绿素含量、抗氧化酶活性及丙二醛含量对不同浓度NaCl和Na_2SO_4(0、100、200、300和400mmol·L~(-1))胁迫的响应,以探讨四翅滨藜对不同种类及不同浓度盐渍环境的适应机制及其耐盐机理。结果显示:(1)随着盐分浓度的升高,四翅滨藜幼苗的株高、地径及生物量增量呈现出先升高后降低的趋势,低盐浓度下2种盐均促进幼苗生长,盐浓度超过400mmol·L~(-1)时,NaCl对幼苗生长具有明显抑制作用。(2)2种盐处理下,四翅滨藜幼苗净光合速率(Pn)和叶绿素含量(Chl)随盐浓度增大而升高,即2种盐均对幼苗Pn和Chl含量具有促进作用,且Na_2SO_4的促进效果大于NaCl;而幼苗蒸腾速率(Tr)和气孔导度(Gs)随盐浓度升高呈先增大后减小的趋势,且Na_2SO_4的促进作用强于NaCl。(3)与对照相比,四翅滨藜幼苗的丙二醛、SOD、POD酶活性在NaCl和Na_2SO_42种盐处理下,随着盐浓度的升高均呈现出不同程度的增大,且增大幅度总体表现为NaClNa_2SO_4。研究表明,四翅滨藜在NaCl和Na_2SO_4胁迫下,叶绿素的分解速率以及发挥作用的渗透调节物质均有差异,使得幼苗叶片健康程度不同,导致叶片光合能力大小的差异,最终表现为植株的生长差异;四翅滨藜具有较强的耐盐能力,而且对Na_2SO_4的适应能力强于NaCl。     

Expression of a carbonic anhydrase gene is induced by environmental stresses in Rice (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Oryza sativa</Emphasis> L.)

Expression of the gene (OsCA1) coding for carbonic anhydrase (CA) in leaves and roots of rice was induced by environmental stresses from salts (NaCl, NaHCO₃ and Na₂CO₃), and osmotic stress (10%, w/v, PEG 6000). CA activity of rice seedlings more than doubled under some of these stresses. Transgenic Arabidopsis over-expressing OsCA1 had a greater salt tolerance at the seedling stage than wild-type plants in 1/2 MS medium with 5 mM NaHCO₃, 50 mM NaCl, on 100 mM NaCl. Thus CA expression responds to environmental stresses and is related to stress tolerance in rice.     

Effects of four types of sodium salt stress on plant growth and photosynthetic apparatus in sorghum leaves

Sorghum variety Longza 17 was used as the experimental organism in a study of the effects of different types of sodium salt (two neutral salts, NaCl and Na₂SO₄; and two alkaline salts, NaHCO₃ and Na₂CO₃), at an equivalent Na⁺ concentration (100?mmol·L^?1) on leaf growth parameters and PSII and PSI function by using the Fast Chlorophyll Fluorescence Induction Dynamics technique and 820?nm light reflectance curves. The results showed that at Na⁺ concentration of 100?mmol·L^?1, different types of sodium salt stress significantly inhibited the growth of sorghum plants. Different types of sodium salt stress showed significant inhibition on the activities of PSII and PSI in sorghum leaves, the impact of different types of sodium salt on the activities of PSII and PSI in sorghum leaves was consistent, listed from greatest to least impact as Na₂CO₃ > NaHCO₃ > Na₂SO₄ > NaCl. The effects of alkaline salt stress on the growth and photosynthetic properties of sorghum were greater than those under the neutral salt stress, therefore, in addition to considering the impact of Na⁺ concentration in the sorghum planting area, emphasis should also be given to the influence of the degree of alkalization, especially the higher alkalinity of Na₂CO₃.     

Osmotic adjustment and ion balance traits of an alkali resistant halophyte Kochia sieversiana during adaptation to salt and alkali conditions

Kochia sieversiana (Pall.) C. A. M., a naturally alkali-resistant halophyte, was chosen as the test organism for our research. The seedlings of K. sieversiana were treated with varying (0–400 mM) salt stress (1:1 molar ratio of NaCl to Na₂SO₄) and alkali stress (1:1 molar ratio of NaHCO₃ to Na₂CO₃). The concentrations of various solutes in fresh shoots, including Na⁺, K⁺, Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, Cl⁻, SO₄²⁻, NO₃⁻, H₂PO₃⁻, betaine, proline, soluble sugar (SS), and organic acid (OA), were determined. The water content (WC) of the shoots was calculated and the OA components were analyzed. Finally, the osmotic adjustment and ion balance traits in the shoots of K. sieversiana were explored. The results showed that the WC of K. sieversiana remained higher than 6 [g g⁻¹ Dry weight (DW)] even under the highest salt or alkali stress. At salinity levels >240 mM, proline concentrations increased dramatically, with rising salinity. We proposed that this was not a simple response to osmotic stress. The concentrations of Na⁺ and K⁺ all increased with increasing salinity, which implies that there was no competitive inhibition for absorption of either in K. sieversiana. Based on our results, the osmotic adjustment feature of salt stress was similar to that of alkali stress in the shoots of K. sieversiana. The shared essential features were that the shoots maintained a state of high WC, OA, Na⁺, K⁺ and other inorganic ions, accumulated largely in the vacuoles, and betaine, accumulated in cytoplasm. On the other hand, the ionic balance mechanisms under both stresses were different. Under salt stress, K. sieversiana accumulated OA and inorganic ions to maintain the intracellular ionic equilibrium, with close to equal contributions of OA and inorganic ions to anion. However, under alkali stress, OA was the dominant factor in maintaining ionic equilibrium. The contribution of OA to anion was as high as 84.2%, and the contribution of inorganic anions to anion was only 15.8%. We found that the physiological responses of K. sieversiana to salt and alkali stresses were unique, and that mechanisms existed in it that were different from other naturally alkali-resistant gramineous plants, such as Aneurolepidium chinense, Puccinellia tenuiflora.

盐胁迫对藜麦种子萌发的影响研究

再生水资源可浇灌农田,但水中含有的阴离子可使土壤产生盐胁迫。为研究盐胁迫对藜麦(Chenopodium quinoa)种子萌发特性及胚根、胚芽生长的影响,该研究以6个藜麦品种(红藜麦、国红藜麦、台红藜麦、台紫红藜麦、黄藜麦、台黄红藜麦)为材料,分别以NaCl、Na₂SO₄、NaHCO₃和对照(CK)处理6个藜麦品种种子,测定其发芽率、胚根、胚芽抑制率等指标,运用均方差决策法对不同藜麦品种耐盐性进行综合评价,初步筛选出不同盐胁迫下耐盐性较强的品种。结果表明:(1)三种盐胁迫中,Na₂SO₄对种子萌发指标抑制作用最明显,6个藜麦品种的发芽率均相对较低,一直保持在5%以下,除黄藜麦、台黄红藜麦,其余4个品种的活力指数和生长速率均为0,除黄藜麦外,Na₂SO₄ 对其余5个藜麦品种的胚根、胚芽抑制率均达到100%; NaCl对种子萌发和生长的抑制作用较小,甚至可促进胚根和胚芽生长,国红藜麦和台黄红藜麦的生长速率在NaCl处理下始终高于对照,在9 h和21 h时国红藜麦胚根抑制率为-28.32%和-37.57%。(2)运用均方差决策法对6个藜麦品种的萌发指标和生长指标进行综合评价结果显示,国红藜麦对NaCl、NaHCO₃抗性较高,黄藜麦对Na₂SO₄抗性较高。综合以上结果表明,盐胁迫不利于藜麦种子萌发及生长,但在不同盐分地区种植适宜生长的品种可提高藜麦成活率,提高其生长质量,以达到藜麦园林绿化及再生水资源灌溉的要求。     

不同盐胁迫对柳枝稷生物量、品质和光合生理的影响

为明确不同盐胁迫对柳枝稷生物量、品质及光合生理的影响,以无盐胁迫作为对照(CK),选取0.40%Na Cl、0.80%Na2SO4和0.80%Na HCO3进行了土柱试验。结果表明:(1)与CK相比,Na Cl、Na2SO4、Na HCO3胁迫下柳枝稷地上生物量、地下生物量、总生物量、籽粒产量及根冠比均显著降低(P0.05),总生物量分别降低49.39%、60.52%、76.45%,Na HCO3对柳枝稷的生长抑制作用最强,Na Cl最弱;(2)Na Cl胁迫下柳枝稷地上生物质灰分含量显著增高14.89%,Na2SO4胁迫下硫(S)含量显著增高262.32%,纤维素含量显著降低13.71%,Na HCO3胁迫下钾(K)含量显著增高54.95%,半纤维素含量显著增高10.87%,灰分和S含量的增高不利于柳枝稷地上生物质的燃烧利用,纤维素含量的降低和半纤维素含量的增高不利于其转化利用;(3)Na Cl、Na2SO4、Na HCO3胁迫下柳枝稷叶片净光合速率(Pn)分别显著降低21.89%、29.54%和24.59%,气孔限制因素可能是其光合作用受到抑制、生物量下降的关键因素。     

Photosynthesis,chlorophyll fluorescence,inorganic ion and organic acid accumulations of sunflower in responses to salt and salt-alkaline mixed stress

Sunflowers were treated with mixing proportions of NaCl, Na₂SO₄, NaHCO₃, and Na₂CO₃. Effects of salt and saltalkaline mixed stress on growth, photosynthesis, chlorophyll fluorescence, and contents of inorganic ions and organic acids of sunflower were compared. The growth of sunflower decreased with increasing salinity. The contents of photosynthetic pigments did not decrease under salt stress, but their contents decreased sharply under salt-alkaline mixed stress. Net photosynthetic rates, stomatal conductance and intercellular CO₂ concentration decreased obviously, with greater reductions under salt-alkaline mixed stress than under salt one. Fluorescence parameters showed no significant differences under salt stress. However, maximal efficiency of PSII photochemistry, photochemical quenching coefficient, electron transport rate, and actual PSII efficiency significantly decreased but non-photochemical quenching increased substantially under salt-alkaline mixed stress. Under salt-alkaline mixed stress, sunflower leaves maintained a low Na⁺- and high K⁺ status; this may be an important feature of sunflower tolerance to salinity. Analysis of the mechanism of ion balance showed that K⁺ but not Na⁺ was the main inorganic cation in sunflower leaves. Our results indicated that the change in organic acid content was opposite to the change of Cl⁻, and the contribution of organic acid to total charge in sunflower leaves under both stresses decreased with increasing salinity. This may be a special adaptive response to stresses for sunflower. Sunflower under stress conditions mainly accumulated inorganic ions instead of synthesizing organic compounds to decrease cell water potential in order to save energy consumption.     

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.
