Effect of osmotic stress and sodium nitroprusside (SNP, NO donor) pretreatment on growth and proline metabolism of wheat seedlings was investigated. Polyethylene glycol 6000 treatment for 2, 4 and 6 d could be termed as mild, moderate and severe stress, respectively, according to decrease in the relative water content. Severe osmotic stress significantly decreased the growth and photochemical efficiency, and increased proline content due to activation of its synthesis. 0.2 mM SNP pretreatment enhanced growth of wheat seedlings, increased variable to maximum fluorescence ratio (Fv/Fm) and fluorescence yield, while decreased proline content. However, 2 mM SNP retarded the seedlings growth and chlorophyll a fluorescence, and increased proline accumulation. Our results showed that NO might be involved in the regulation of osmotic stress in a concentration-dependent manner.  相似文献

The physiological effects of lanthanum(III) ions on the ferritin-regulated antioxidant process were studied in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) seedlings under polyethylene glycol (PEG) stress. Treatment with 0.1 mM La3+ resulted in increased levels of chlorophyll, carotenoid, proline, ascorbate, and reduced glutathione. The activities of superoxide dismutase, catalase, ascorbate peroxidase, monodehydroascorbate reductase, dehydroascorbate reductase, glutathione reductase, and peroxidase were also increased after La3+ treatment. Treatment with La3+ seems to enhance the capacity of the reactive oxygen species scavenging system, affect the Fe2+ and Fe3+ electron-transfer process in ferritin, and restrain the formation of hydroxyl radical (OH.), alleviating the oxidative damage induced by PEG stress.  相似文献

He-Ne激光对水分胁迫下小麦幼苗生理特性的影响   总被引:3,自引:1,他引:2  
用He-Ne激光(5.23×10-3W.mm-2)处理经不同浓度PEG6000胁迫的小麦幼苗,研究水分胁迫条件下激光辐照对小麦幼苗生理特性的影响。结果表明,He-Ne激光辐照可显著提高水分胁迫下小麦幼苗的根系活力以及抗坏血酸过氧化物酶(APX)和谷胱甘肽还原酶(GR)活性(P<0.05),并使其脯氨酸含量显著增加(P<0.05),而对其超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)的活性没有显著影响。可见,He-Ne激光可通过提高根系活力、抗氧化酶活性和脯氨酸含量来显著增强小麦幼苗的抗旱性。  相似文献

Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic metal and an environmental pollutant that significantly reduces plant growth and productivity. Proper management can ameliorate dysfunction and improve the plant growth and productivity exposed to Cd. Therefore, the present study was conducted to explore the protective role of the fungicides tebuconazole (TEB) and trifloxystrobin (TRI) in helping wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Norin 61) seedlings to tolerate Cd. Five-day-old hydroponically grown seedlings were allowed to mild (0.25 mM CdCl2) and severe (0.5 mM CdCl2) Cd stress separately and with the fungicides (2.75 µM TEB + 1.0 µM TRI) for the next four days. Compared to control, the level of H2O2 in the seedlings exposed to mild and severe Cd stress alone increased by 81 and 112%, respectively. The accumulation of Cd also increased in the wheat seedlings along with declining mineral nutrients under Cd stress. The protective effect of TEB and TRI was observed with the enhancement of the antioxidant defense and methylglyoxalase systems and reduction in oxidative damage. Applying TEB and TRI reduced MDA (by 9 and 18%), EL (by 21 and 17%), MG (by 12 and 17%), and LOX activity (by 37 and 27%), respectively, relative to Cd stress alone. Cadmium uptake also decreased in the shoots (by 48 and 50%, respectively) and roots (by 23 and 25%, respectively) of the fungicide-treated wheat seedlings under mild and severe Cd stress, relative to stress alone. These results indicate the exogenous application of TEB and TRI is a promising approach to improve Cd tolerance in wheat plants. Further investigation is needed under field conditions and for other crop species to determine the Cd-tolerance induced by TEB and TRI application.  相似文献

Nitric oxide (NO) is an important plant signaling molecule that has a vital role in abiotic stress tolerance. In the present study, we assessed drought-induced (15 and 30% PEG, polyethylene glycol) damage in wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Prodip) seedlings and mitigation by the synergistic effect of exogenous Arg (0.5 mM l-Arginine) and an NO donor (0.5 mM sodium nitroprusside, SNP). Drought stress sharply decreased the leaf relative water content (RWC) but markedly increased the proline (Pro) content in wheat seedlings. Drought stress caused overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and methylglyoxal (MG) due to the inefficiency of antioxidant enzymes, the glyoxalase system, and the ascorbate-glutathione pool. However, supplementation with the NO donor and Arg enhanced the antioxidant defense system (both non-enzymatic and enzymatic components) in drought-stressed seedlings. Application of the NO donor and Arg also enhanced the glyoxalase system and reduced the MG content by increasing the activities of the glyoxalase system enzymes (Gly I and Gly II), which restored the leaf RWC and further increased the Pro content under drought stress conditions. Exogenous NO donor and Arg application enhanced the endogenous NO content, which positively regulated the antioxidant system and reduced ROS production. Thus, the present study reveals the crucial roles of Arg and NO in enhancing drought stress tolerance in wheat seedlings by upgrading their water status and reducing oxidative stress and MG toxicity.  相似文献

Physiological and biochemical responses of wheat seedlings to drought, UV-B radiation, and combined stress were investigated. Drought, UV-B, and combined stresses retarded seedling growth by 26.5, 29.1, and 55.9%, respectively. One reason for growth retardation may be the oxidative damage indicated by an increase in the H2O2 content and lipid peroxidation degree. Furthermore, there was negative correlation between shoot fresh weight and H2O2 content, fresh weight and the content of thiobarbituric acid-reacting substances (TBARS), and the positive correlation between H2O2 content and TBARS (R 2 = 0.9251, 0.9005, and 0.9007, respectively). The activities of superoxide dismutase, guaiacol peroxidase, and ascorbate peroxidase increased under drought, UV-B, and the combination of stresses, while catalase activity decreased under the combined stress as compared to the control. The combination of drought and UV-B caused more severe damage to wheat seedlings than stress factors applied separately. Thus, the combined application of drought and UV-B had more strong adverse effects on wheat seedlings. The addition of 0.2 mM sodium nitroprusside (SNP) enhanced wheat seedling growth under drought, UV-B, and combined stress, likely, due to decreasing the accumulation of H2O2 and lipid peroxidation as well as activating the antioxidant enzymes. However, SNP treatment decreased the proline content. Published in Russian in Fiziologiya Rastenii, 2007, Vol. 54, No. 5, pp. 763–769. The text was submitted by the authors in English.  相似文献

一氧化氮对盐胁迫下小麦幼苗根生长和氧化损伤的影响   总被引:45,自引:2,他引:45  
0.05和0.10 mmol/L一氧化氮(NO)供体硝普钠(sodium mtropmsside,SNP)处理明显减轻NaCl浓度为150 mmo1/L左右的盐胁迫对小麦幼苗根生长的抑制效应,其中0.05mmol/L的SNP效果最明显;0.30mmol/L以上的SNP处理对根抑制无明显缓解作用;当NaCl浓度大于300 mmol/L时,各种浓度的SNP均不能减轻盐胁迫对根生长的抑制.以N O清除剂血红蛋白(hemoglobin,Hb)以及NOx-,K3Fe(CN)6等为对照,观察到0.05 mmol/L的SNP能不同程度地提高150mmo/L盐胁迫下小麦幼苗根尖细胞中超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化物酶(POD)和抗坏血酸过氧化物酶(ascorbateperoxidase,APX)活性,明显降低MDA、H2O2和O2-.的积累,阻断盐胁迫诱导的根尖细胞DNA片段化,表明NO能有效缓解盐胁迫引起的小麦幼苗根尖细胞的氧化损伤.  相似文献

We investigated promotion effects of exogenous sodium nitroprusside (SNP) on wheat seedling (Triticum aestivum L.) lateral root (LR) and root hair development, and the relationship between endogenous jasmonate (JA) production and activity changes of lipoxygenase (LOX) isoenzymes under osmotic stress generated by 15 % PEG-6000. Our results showed that 25 or 50 μM SNP could significantly increase LR length and number whether or not the seedlings were under PEG stress. When 50 μM cPTIO, 50 μM SHAM or 50 μM NDGA was supplemented, the promotion effects of SNP were blocked. SNP could also induce the production of endogenous JAs in roots, and 25 μM SNP induced the maximum JA content. The effect of SNP on JA production could also be blocked by adding cPTIO, SHAM or NDGA. Furthermore, the activity of lipoxygenase (LOX) in roots was affected by SNP; the maximal activity of LOX also occurred in the roots treated by 25 μM SNP under PEG stress, or 50 μM SNP without PEG stress. LOX isoenzymes in roots were detected by electrophoresis; the results showed that 25 μM SNP could noticeably increase the activities of LOXII and LOXIII under PEG stress. Our results suggest that, under osmotic stress generated by PEG, the promotion effects of exogenous SNP on wheat LR and root hair development could be mediated by endogenous JAs through LOX activation.  相似文献

采用外源一氧化氮(NO)供体硝普钠(SNP)研究了NO对盐胁迫下小麦(Triticum aestivum L.)幼苗耐盐性的影响。结果表明,0.1 mmol/L SNP处理显著缓解了150 mmol/L NaCl 胁迫对小麦幼苗生长的抑制效应,包括水分丧失以及叶绿素降解,从而提高了小麦幼苗的耐盐性。进一步结合1 mg/mL血红蛋白处理则显著逆转了SNP诱导的上述效应;利用亚硝酸钠和铁氰化钾作为对照也证实了NO对小麦幼苗耐盐性的专一性调节作用,并可能与NO对小麦幼苗根部质膜 H -ATPase和焦磷酸酶活性诱导有关。此外,尽管NO显著提高了盐胁迫下小麦幼苗根部细胞质膜H -ATPase和焦磷酸酶的ATP水解活性,但是对跨膜H 转运则没有明显影响。应用外源CaSO4 和 EGTA 处理也证实,Ca2 可能在NO诱导的质膜 H -ATPase和焦磷酸酶活性的提高过程中起信号作用。另外,分析盐胁迫下小麦幼苗根部 Na 和K 含量的变化也发现,NO对Na 含量没有明显影响,但是却显著提高了K 水平和K /Na 比,这可能也是NO提高小麦幼苗耐盐性的原因之一。  相似文献

The effect of malonate and sedaxane, a compound with the fungicidal effect which act as succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors, on the resistance of etiolated wheat seedlings (Triticum aestivum L.) to osmotic stress caused by 12% PEG 6000 solution, was studied. The presowing treatment of seeds with 0.3 mM sedaxane solution significantly reduced the inhibitory effect of osmotic stress on seedling growth. The protective effect of 10 mM malonate was significant when it was added to the incubation medium of the roots; the effect of preseeding treatment with malonate was less significant. Unlike malonate, malate had no positive effect on seedling growth under osmotic stress. The activity of succinate dehydrogenase and the hydrogen peroxide content decreased in seedlings after the treatment of roots with malonate and sedaxane. Pretreatment with sedaxane and the addition of malonate to the incubation medium of roots prevented the accumulation of a lipid peroxidation product, malondialdehyde, which is caused by osmotic stress, and increased peroxidase activity. It was concluded that the stress-protective effect of sedaxane and malonate on wheat seedlings might be due to the inhibition of succinate dehydrogenase-dependent formation of reactive oxygen species and the prevention of oxidative cell damage.  相似文献

水分胁迫对小麦幼苗叶片多胺含量的影响   总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9  
水分胁迫下小麦幼苗叶片多胺含量变化的研究表明,聚乙二醇(PEG)的渗透胁迫明显提高了抗旱性强的周麦系列幼苗叶片游离态Put、Spd和Spm的含量和抗旱性弱的温麦6号的Put含量。外源Spd显著提高了水分胁迫下温麦6号的Spd的含量,对其抗性也有所改善。外源MGBG(Spd和Spm生物合成抑制剂)可提高水分胁迫下周麦12号Put的含量,但降低了Spd和Spm的含量和幼苗的抗性。  相似文献

Nitric oxide (NO) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) play important roles in both abscisic acid (ABA) signaling and stress-induced ABA accumulation. However, little is known about their physiological roles in the whole plant. In this study, the effects of NO and ROS on leaf water control and the roles of ABA were determined using wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) seedlings. As compared with the control, osmotic stress reduced leaf water loss (LWL) while it increased leaf ABA content. The effects of osmotic stress on LWL and ABA contents were partially reversed by NO scavengers or NO synthase (NOS) inhibitors. Furthermore, sodium nitroprusside (SNP) at concentrations between 0.01 and 10 mM all reduced LWL efficiently and induced ABA accumulation in a dose-dependent manner. When ABA synthesis was inhibited by fluridone or actidione, the effects of SNP on LWL were partially reversed. These results suggest that NO is involved in leaf water maintenance of wheat seedlings under osmotic stress, and one of the possible mechanisms is by stimulating ABA synthesis. The ROS scavengers used in our experiments had no effects on either LWL or ABA accumulation induced by osmotic stress. However, all ROS induced LWL reduction and ABA accumulation significantly. Hydrogen peroxide had the same effects as SNP on LWL and induced ABA accumulation in a dose-dependent manner but had a maximal effect at 1 mM. Fluridone reversed the effects of H2O2 on both LWL reduction and ABA accumulation, while actidione had no effect. These results suggest that ROS are also involved in leaf water maintenance of wheat seedlings by stimulating ABA biosynthesis, but with a different mechanism to that of NO. The ABA-independent mechanism in NO/ROS regulation of leaf water balance is discussed, in relation to our results.  相似文献

Our previous results indicated that 3-d-old dark-grown chilling-sensitive maize (Zea mays L.) seedlings did not survive 7 d of 4[deg]C chilling stress, but 69% of them survived similar stress when the seedlings were either preexposed to 14[deg]C for 3 d or pretreated with 0.1 mM H2O2 for 4 h at 27[deg]C (T.K. Prasad, M.D. Anderson, B.A. Martin, C.R. Stewart [1994] Plant Cell 6: 65-74) or 1 mM abscisic acid (ABA) for 24 h at 27[deg]C (M.D. Anderson, T.K. Prasad, B.A. Martin, C.R. Stewart [1994] Plant Physiol 105: 331-339). We discovered that chilling imposed oxidative stress on the seedlings. Since H2O2 accumulated during the periods of both acclimation and nonacclimation, we concluded that H2O2 had dual effects at low temperature: (a) During acclimation, its early transient accumulation signals the induction of antioxidant enzymes such as catalase 3 and peroxidase to scavenge H2O2; and (b) at 4[deg]C in nonacclimated seedlings, it accumulates to damaging levels in the tissues because of low levels of these and perhaps other antioxidant enzymes. Three-day-old seedlings pretreated with H2O2 (a mild oxidative stress) or ABA showed induced chilling tolerance. In the present study, we investigated whether mitochondria are a target for chilling-induced oxidative stress and, if so, what differences do acclimation, H2O2, or ABA make to protect mitochondria from irreversible chilling injury. The results indicated that chilling, in general, impairs respiratory activity, the cytochrome pathway of electron transport, and ATPase activity regardless of the treatment. In pretreated seedlings, the activities of catalase 3 and peroxidase in the mitochondria increased severalfold compared with control and nonacclimated seedlings. The increases in these antioxidant enzymes imply that mitochondria are under oxidative stress and such increases could initiate a protective mechanism in the mitochondria. Mitochondrial respiration is partially cyanide resistant during chilling stress and also after the 1st d of recovery. Upon further recovery over 3 d, in contrast to nonacclimated seedlings, the mitochondria of acclimation-, H2O2-, and ABA-treated seedlings showed the following recovery features. (a) The mitochondrial respiration changed from a cyanide-resistant to a cyanide-sensitive cytochrome pathway, (b) cytochrome oxidase activity recovered to control levels, (c) the ability of mitochondria to generate ATP was regained, and (d) the antioxidant enzyme activities remained at or above control levels. Based on these results, we conclude that chilling impairs mitochondrial function and that chilling-induced oxidative stress seems to be a factor, at least in part, for causing possible irreversible damage to the mitochondrial membrance components. Acclimation, H2O2, and ABA provide a protective mechanism by inducing antioxidant enzymes to protect mitochondria from irreversible oxidative damage that is absent in nonacclimated seedlings. Therefore, we conclude that the ability of the seedlings to recover from chilling injury is, at least in part, due to the ability of the mitochondria to resume normal function.  相似文献

外源NO对NaCl胁迫下辣椒幼苗氧化损伤的保护效应   总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5  
以辣椒品种陇椒2号为试验材料,研究了外源NO供体硝普钠(SNP)对辣椒幼苗氧化损伤的影响.结果显示,在100 mmol/L NaCl胁迫下,辣椒叶片的MDA含量、质膜相对透性和脯氨酸含量均增加,保护酶SOD、CAT活性降低,而POD活性只在胁迫18 d时降低.0.1 mmol/L SNP处理可减缓NaCl胁迫下辣椒幼苗叶片MDA含量的上升,降低叶片质膜相对透性,并诱导SOD、POD和CAT活性增加,提高脯氨酸含量,表明外源NO可以通过提高盐胁迫下辣椒幼苗叶片组织的抗氧化能力来缓解氧化损伤.而SNP相似物NaNO2和K3Fe(CN)6处理对盐胁迫引起的氧化损伤并没有起到明显的缓解作用,进一步证实了NO对辣椒幼苗耐盐性具有专一性的调节作用.  相似文献

Mitochondria are subcellular organelles with an essentially oxidative type of metabolism. The production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in it increases under stress conditions and causes oxidative damage. In the present study, effects of exogenous sodium nitroprusside (SNP), a nitric oxide (NO) donor, on both the ROS metabolism in mitochondria and functions of plasma membrane (PM) and tonoplast were studied in cucumber seedlings treated with 100mM NaCl. NaCl treatment induced significant accumulation of H(2)O(2) and led to serious lipid peroxidation in cucumber mitochondria, and the application of 50muM SNP stimulated ROS-scavenging enzymes and reduced accumulation of H(2)O(2) in mitochondria of cucumber roots induced by NaCl. As a result, lipid peroxidation of mitochondria decreased. Further investigation showed that application of SNP alleviated the inhibition of H(+)-ATPase and H(+)-PPase in PM and/or tonoplast by NaCl. While application of sodium ferrocyanide (an analog of SNP that does not release NO) did not show the effect of SNP, furthermore, the effects of SNP were reverted by addition of hemoglobin (a NO scavenger).  相似文献

Roles of abscisic acid (ABA) in water stress-induced oxidative stress were investigated in leaves of maize ( Zea mays L.) seedlings exposed to water stress induced by polyethylene glycol (PEG 6000). Treatment with PEG at &#109 0.7 MPa for 12 and 24 h led to a reduction in leaf relative water content (RWC) by 7.8 and 14.1%, respectively. Duration of the osmotic treatments is considered as mild and moderate water stress. The mild water stress caused significant increases in the generation of superoxide radical ( O 2 &#109 ) and hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ), the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), ascorbate peroxidase (APX) and glutathione reductase (GR) and the contents of ascorbate (ASC), reduced glutathione (GSH). The moderate water stress failed to further enhance the capacity of antioxidant defense systems, as compared to the mild water stress. The contents of catalytic Fe, which is critical for H 2 O 2 -dependent hydroxyl radical ( &#148 OH) production, and the oxidized forms of ascorbate and glutathione pools, dehydroascorbate (DHA) and oxidized glutathione (GSSG), markedly increased, a significant oxidative damage to lipids and proteins took place under the moderate water stress. Pretreatment with ABA caused an obvious reduction in the content of catalytic Fe and significant increases in the activities of antioxidant enzymes and the contents of non-enzymatic antioxidants, and then significantly reduced the contents of DHA and GSSG and the degrees of oxidative damage in leaves exposed to the moderate water stress. Pretreatment with an ABA biosynthesis inhibitor, tungstate, significantly suppressed the accumulation of ABA induced by water stress, reduced the enhancement in the capacity of antioxidant defense systems, and resulted in an increase in catalytic Fe, DHA and GSSG, and oxidative damage in the water-stressed leaves. These effects were completely prevented by addition of ABA, which raised the internal ABA content. Our data indicate that ABA plays an important role in water stress-induced antioxidant defense against oxidative stress.  相似文献

Cadmium (Cd) is a non-redox toxic heavy metal present in the environment and induces oxidative stress in plants. We investigated whether exogenous nitric oxide (NO) supplementation as sodium nitroprusside (SNP) has any ameliorating action against Cd-induced oxidative damage in plant roots and thus protective role against Cd toxicity. Cd treatment (50 or 250 μM) alone or in combination with 200 μM SNP was given to hydroponically grown wheat roots for a short time period of 24 h and then these were shifted to distilled water to observe changes in levels of oxidative markers (lipid peroxidation, H2O2 content and electrolyte leakage). Supplementation of Cd with SNP significantly reduced the Cd-induced lipid peroxidation, H2O2 content and electrolyte leakage in wheat roots. It indicated a reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging activity of NO. However, even upon removal of Cd-treatment solution, the levels of oxidative markers increased during 24 h recovery stage and later at 48 h these decreased. Cd treatment resulted in an upregulation of activities of antioxidant enzymes—superoxide dismutase (SOD, 1.15.1.1), guaiacol peroxidase (GPX, 1.11.1.7), catalase (CAT, 1.11.1.6), and glutathione reductase (GR, 1.6.4.2). SNP supply resulted in a reduction in Cd-induced increased activities of scavenging enzymes. The protective role of exogenous NO in decreasing Cd-induced oxidative damage was also evident from the histochemical localization of lipid peroxidation, plasma membrane integrity and superoxides. The study concludes that an exogenous supply of NO protects wheat roots from Cd-induced toxicity.  相似文献
