Comparison of effects of salt and alkali stresses on the growth and photosynthesis of wheat 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
The seedlings of wheat were treated by salt-stress (SS, molar ratio of NaCl: Na2SO4 = 1: 1) and alkali-stress (AS, molar ratio of NaHCO3: Na2CO3 = 1: 1). Relative growth rate (RGR), leaf area, and water content decreased with increasing salinity, and the extents of
the reduction under AS were greater than those under SS. The contents of photosynthetic pigments did not decrease under SS,
but increased at low salinity. On the contrary, the contents of photosynthetic pigments decreased sharply under AS with increasing
salinity. Under SS, the changes of net photosynthetic rate (P
N), stomatal conductance (g
s), and transpiration rate (E) were similar and all varied in a single-peak curve with increasing salinity, and they were lower than those of control only
at salinity over 150 mM. Under AS, P
N, g
s, and E decreased sharply with rising salinity. The decrease of g
s might cause the obvious decreases of E and intercellular CO2 concentration, and the increase of water use efficiency under both stresses. The Na+ content and Na+/K+ ratio in shoot increased and the K+ content in shoot decreased under both stresses, and the changing extents under AS were greater than those under SS. Thus
SS and AS are two distinctive stresses with different characters; the destructive effects of AS on the growth and photosynthesis
of wheat are more severe than those under SS. High pH is the key feature of the AS that is different from SS. The buffer capacity
is essentially the measure of high pH action on plant. The deposition of mineral elements and the intracellular unbalance
of Na+ and K+ caused by the high pH at AS might be the reason of the decrease of P
N and g
s and of the destruction of photosynthetic pigments. 相似文献

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. 相似文献

Comparative effects of salt-stress and alkali-stress on the growth,photosynthesis, solute accumulation,and ion balance of barley plants 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
We compared the effects of salt-stresses (SS, 1: 1 molar ratio of NaCl to Na2SO4) and alkali-stresses (AS, 1: 1 molar ratio of NaHCO3 to Na2CO3) on the growth, photosynthesis, solute accumulation, and ion balance of barley seedlings, to elucidate the mechanism of AS
(high-pH) damage to plants and the physiological adaptive mechanism of plants to AS. The effects of SS on the water content,
root system activity, membrane permeability, and the content of photosynthetic pigments were much less than those of AS. However,
AS damaged root function, photosynthetic pigments, and the membrane system, led to the severe reductions in water content,
root system activity, content of photosynthetic pigments, and net photosynthetic rate, and a sharp increase in electrolyte
leakage rate. Moreover, with salinity higher than 60 mM, Na+ content increased slowly under SS and sharply under AS. This indicates that high-pH caused by AS might interfere with control
of Na+ uptake in roots and increase intracellular Na+ to a toxic level, which may be the main cause of some damage emerging under higher AS. Under SS, barley accumulated organic
acids, Cl−, SO4
2−, and NO3
− to balance the massive influx of cations, the contribution of inorganic ions to ion balance was greater than that of organic
acids. However, AS might inhibit absorptions of NO3
− and Cl−, enhance organic acid synthesis, and SO4
2− absorption to maintain intracellular ion balance and stable pH. 相似文献

Salinity is a widespread adverse environmental problem globally, and significantly limits crop production. In this study, the possibility of enhancing salinity stress tolerance of Swiss chard (Beta vulgaris L. var. cicla) by 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) foliar application was investigated. The Swiss chard plants were grown in hydroponic culture. Twelve-week-old uniform seedlings were treated by 0 and 40 mM saline regimes generated by the mixture of sodium chloride and sodium sulfate (molar ratio NaCl:Na2SO4 = 9:1), and were foliar-sprayed with 0 and 60 μM L?1 ALA (every 3 days) for 6 days; then the plants were treated for another 7 days (every 3 day) with increased concentration of salinity and ALA, 80 mM and 120 μM L?1. Salinity without ALA application significantly decreased plant growth [43 % in shoot dry weight (DW), 21 % in root DW, 24 % in relative growth rate (RGR), 43 % in leaf area (LA)], water uptake [20.8 % in relative water content (RWC), 47.9 % in osmotic potential (OP)], chlorophyll (Chl) a content (10 %), Pn (36 %), Gs (72 %) and Tr (59 %) compared with those in control plants; however, under saline conditions, ALA foliar application improved plant growth (49.7 % in shoot DW, 27 % in root DW, 42.3 % in RGR, 72.1 % in LA) and increased RWC (12 %), Chl a content (10 %) and photosynthetic parameters (27 % in Pn, 28 % in Gs, 14 % in Tr) compared with those in untreated plants. Salinity significantly increased Na+ content, resulting in the reduction of Mg2+ and K+ contents. ALA foliar application alleviated ionic toxicity through the reduction of Na+ content and Na+/K+ ratio. On the other hand, it increased total nitrogen and glycine betaine (GB) content. ALA foliar application slightly reduced malondialdehyde (MDA) content, indicating that ALA has the potential to alleviate oxidative stress in salinity-stressed Swiss chard. 相似文献

Increases in the concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide may have a fertilizing effect on plant growth by increasing photosynthetic rates and therefore may offset potential growth decreases caused by the stress associated with higher temperatures and lower precipitation. However, plant growth is determined both by rates of net photosynthesis and by proportional allocation of fixed carbon to autotrophic tissue and heterotrophic tissue. Although CO2 fertilization may enhance growth by increasing leaf-level assimilation rates, reallocation of biomass from leaves to stems and roots in response to higher concentrations of CO2 and higher temperatures may reduce whole-plant assimilation and offset photosynthetic gains. We measured growth parameters, photosynthesis, respiration, and biomass allocation of Pinus ponderosa seedlings grown for 2 months in 2×2 factorial treatments of 350 or 650 bar CO2 and 10/25° C or 15/30° C night/day temperatures. After 1 month in treatment conditions, total seedling biomass was higher in elevated CO2, and temperature significantly enhanced the positive CO2 effect. However, after 2 months the effect of CO2 on total biomass decreased and relative growth rates did not differ among CO2 and temperature treatments over the 2-month growth period even though photosynthetic rates increased 7% in high CO2 treatments and decreased 10% in high temperature treatments. Additionally, CO2 enhancement decreased root respiration and high temperatures increased shoot respiration. Based on CO2 exchange rates, CO2 fertilization should have increased relative growth rates (RGR) and high temperatures should have decreased RGR. Higher photosynthetic rates caused by CO2 fertilization appear to have been mitigated during the second month of exposure to treatment conditions by a 3% decrease in allocation of biomass to leaves and a 9% increase in root:shoot ratio. It was not clear why diminished photosynthetic rates and increased respiration rates at high temperatures did not result in lower RGR. Significant diametrical and potentially compensatory responses of CO2 exchange and biomass allocation and the lack of differences in RGR of ponderosa pine after 2 months of exposure of high CO2 indicate that the effects of CO2 fertilization and temperature on whole-plant growth are determined by complex shifts in biomass allocation and gas exchange that may, for some species, maintain constant growth rates as climate and atmospheric CO2 concentrations change. These complex responses must be considered together to predict plant growth reactions to global atmospheric change, and the potential of forest ecosystems to sequester larger amounts of carbon in the future. 相似文献

Osmotic adjustment and ion balance traits of an alkali resistant halophyte Kochia sieversiana during adaptation to salt and alkali conditions 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

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.

Barley Growth and Its Underlying Components are Affected by Elevated CO2 and Salt Concentration 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The future environment will exhibit increases in soil salt concentrations and atmospheric CO2. In general, plant growth is inhibited by salt stress and stimulated by elevated CO2. This study investigated whether elevated CO2 could improve plant growth under salt stress and the mechanisms involved. We measured functional and morphological components of growth in barley (cv. Iranis) subjected to 0, 80, 160, or 240 mM NaCl and grown at either 350 (ambient) or 700 (elevated) μmol mol?1 CO2. Under nonsaline conditions, elevated CO2 stimulated growth by increasing the relative growth rate (RGR). Maximum CO2 stimulation was observed within the first 10 days of development, before the start of the salt treatment. Afterwards, salt stress caused reductions in biomass production and RGR by decreasing the photosynthetic rate and increasing the respiration rate; this resulted in a reduced net assimilation rate (functional component). In addition, salt stress caused nutritional imbalances, which reduced the leaf expansion capacity, and changed the root-to-shoot ratio. This resulted in reductions in the specific leaf area and leaf weight ratio (morphological components). However, the functional component became more relevant with increasing salt stress. Under elevated CO2 conditions, salt stress inhibited growth less than that observed at ambient CO2. This occurred because (1) more dry biomass was synthesized for a given leaf area due to higher photosynthetic rates, and (2) greater leaf area and root biomass were maintained for photosynthesis and water and mineral uptake, respectively. 相似文献

The present study investigated the effects of NaCl, KCl and Na2SO4 salts on the C4 excreting halophyte Aeluropus littoralis in relation to growth, mineral status and photosynthesis in greenhouse conditions. Plantlets were subjected to five salinity levels: 0, 200, 400, 600 and 800 mM for 30 days. Growth decreased progressively with salinity increase, its reduction might be correlated with the high sodium (and/or chloride) accumulation in plant tissues, the decrease of leaf water status and the decline of the net photosynthetic rate and the intrinsic water use efficiency. Na2SO4 appeared more toxic than KCl and NaCl, especially at 200 mM. At 200 mM, Na2SO4 reduced plant growth by 61% while for other salt forms, the reductions were less than 20%. At this salt level, stomatal conductance showed a consistent pattern with plant growth and could adequately explain the variations between the effects of the three salt types. 相似文献

Two Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus L.) genotypes, NY-1 and NY-7, were subjected to different seawater concentrations (0, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50%) for various
periods of time to determine the effects on seedling growth, ion content, and photosynthetic productivity in a greenhouse.
Under different seawater concentrations, sprouting rates varied greatly among the genotypes. The differences in relative growth
rate (RGR), leaf chlorophyll content, total leaf area (TLA), plant dry weight (PDW), photosynthetic rate (A), stomatal conductance (g
s), and efficiency of the light harvesting of photosystem II (F
v′/F
m′) were significant between NY-1 and NY-7 after 12 days of stress at 40 and 50% seawater. Seawater treatments resulted in the
reduction of almost all the growth parameters and coincident increases of Na+ and Ca2+ concentrations in plant tissues. Our results indicate that there is great variability for seawater tolerance among H. tuberosus varieties, and that greater photosynthesis capacity, higher RGR, and relatively higher tissue Na+ accumulation at high seawater concentrations appears to be associated with seawater tolerance in H. tuberosus varieties. 相似文献

Chloris virgata Swartz (C. virgata) is a gramineous wild plant that is found in alkaline soil areas in northeast China and is highly tolerant to carbonate stress.
We constructed a cDNA library from C. virgata seedlings treated with NaHCO3, and isolated a type1 metallothionein (MT1) gene (ChlMT1: AB294238) from the library. The amino acid sequence of ChlMT1 contained 12 cysteine residues that constituted the Cys-X-Cys
(X = amino acid except Cys) motifs in the N- and C-terminal regions. Northern hybridization showed that expression of ChlMT1 was induced by several abiotic stresses, from salts (NaCl and NaHCO3), a ROS inducer (paraquat), and metals (CuSO4, ZnSO4, and CoCl2). ChlMT1 expression in leaf was induced by 200 mM NaCl and 100 mM NaHCO3. About 5 μM Paraquat, 500 μM Zn2+, and 500 μM Co2+ also induced expression of ChlMT1 in leaf after 6 h, and 100 μM Cu2+ induced it after 24 h. Saccharomyces cerevisiae when transformed with the ChlMT1 gene had dramatically increased tolerances to salts (NaCl and NaHCO3) and ROS. 相似文献

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. 相似文献

The comparative responses of young olive trees (Olea europaea L. cv “Chemlali”) to different NaCl salinity levels were investigated over 11 months. One-year-old own rooted plants were
grown in 10-L pots containing sand and perlite mixture (1:3 v/v). Trees were subjected to three irrigation treatments: CP
(control plants that were irrigated with fresh water); SS1 (salt stressed plants irrigated with water containing 100 mM NaCl)
and SS2 plants (salt stressed plants irrigated with water containing 200 mM NaCl). Shoot elongation rate, relative water content,
leaf water potential and net carbon dioxide exchange rates decreased significantly with increased NaCl salinity level. Under
stressed conditions, the increase of Na+ and Cl− ions in both leaves and roots was accompanied with that of proline and soluble sugars. The above results show that the accumulation
of proline and sugars under stressed conditions could play a role in salt tolerance. The absence of toxicity symptoms under
both stress treatments and the superior photosynthetic activity recorded in SS1-treated plants suggest that cv Chemlali is
better able to acclimatize to 100 mM NaCl than at 200 mM NaCl. Our findings indicate that saline water containing 100 mM NaCl,
the most available water in arid region in Tunisia, can be recommended for the irrigation of cv Chemlali in the arid south
of Tunisia. 相似文献

The effect of water shortage on growth and gas exchange of maize grown on sandy soil (SS) and clay soil was studied. The lower
soil water content in the SS during vegetative growth stages did not affect plant height, above-ground biomass, and leaf area
index (LAI). LAI reduction was observed on the SS during the reproductive stage due to early leaf senescence. Canopy and leaf
gas exchanges, measured by eddy correlation technique and by a portable photosynthetic system, respectively, were affected
by water stress and a greater reduction in net photosynthetic rate (A
N) and stomatal conductance (g
s) was observed on SS. Chlorophyll and carotenoids content was not affected by water shortage in either condition. Results
support two main conclusions: (1) leaf photosynthetic capacity was unaffected by water stress, and (2) maize effectively endured
water shortage during the vegetative growth stage. 相似文献

Effect of soil drying on growth,biomass allocation and leaf gas exchange of two annual grass species 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Influence of short-term water stress on plant growth and leaf gas exchange was studied simultaneously in a growth chamber experiment using two annual grass species differing in photosynthetic pathway type, plant architecture and phenology:Triticum aestivum L. cv. Katya-A-1 (C3, a drought resistant wheat cultivar of erect growth) andTragus racemosus (L.) All. (C4, a prostrate weed of warm semiarid areas). At the leaf level, gas exchange rates declined with decreasing soil water potential for both species in such a way that instantaneous photosynthetic water use efficiency (PWUE, mmol CO2 assimilated per mol H2O transpired) increased. At adequate water supply, the C4 grass showed much lower stomatal conductance and higher PWUE than the C3 species, but this difference disappeared at severe water stress when leaf gas exchange rates were similarly reduced for both species. However, by using soil water more sparingly, the C4 species was able to assimilate under non-stressful conditions for a longer time than the C3 wheat did. At the whole-plant level, decreasing water availability substantially reduced the relative growth rate (RGR) ofT. aestivum, while biomass partitioning changed in favour of root growth, so that the plant could exploit the limiting water resource more efficiently. The change in partitioning preceded the overall reduction of RGR and it was associated with increased biomass allocation to roots and less to leaves, as well as with a decrease in specific leaf area. Water saving byT. racemosus sufficiently postponed water stress effects on plant growth occurring only as a moderate reduction in leaf area enlargement. For unstressed vegetative plants, relative growth rate of the C4
T. racemosus was only slightly higher than that of the C3
T. aestivum, though it was achieved at a much lower water cost. The lack of difference in RGR was probably due to growth conditions being relatively suboptimal for the C4 plant and also to a relatively large investment in stem tissues by the C4
T. racemosus. Only 10% of the plant biomass was allocated to roots in the C4 species while this was more than 30% for the C3 wheat cultivar. These results emphasize the importance of water saving and high WUE of C4 plants in maintaining growth under moderate water stress in comparison with C3 species. 相似文献

Chloris virgata Swartz (C. virgata) is a gramineous wild plant that can survive in saline-alkali areas in northeast China. To examine the tolerance mechanisms of C. virgata, we constructed a cDNA library from whole plants of C. virgata that had been treated with 100 mM NaHCO3 for 24 h and sequenced 3168 randomly selected clones. Most (2590) of the expressed sequence tags (ESTs) showed significant similarity to sequences in the NCBI database. Of the 2590 genes, 1893 were unique. Gene Ontology (GO) Slim annotations were obtained for 1081 ESTs by BLAST2GO and it was found that 75 genes of them were annotated with GO terms “response to stress”, “response to abiotic stimulus”, and “response to biotic stimulus”, indicating these genes were likely to function in tolerance mechanism of C. virgata.In a separate experiment, 24 genes that are known from previous studies to be associated with abiotic stress tolerance were further examined by real-time RT-PCR to see how their expressions were affected by NaHCO3 stress. NaHCO3 treatment up-regulated the expressions of pathogenesis-related gene (DC998527), Win1 precursor gene (DC998617), catalase gene (DC999385), ribosome inactivating protein 1 (DC999555), Na+/H+ antiporter gene (DC998043), and two-component regulator gene (DC998236). 相似文献

The effects of soil-water salinity on growth and photosynthesis of three coastal dune plants were examined by salt-treatment
in order to clarify the causal relationship between salinity and plant distribution in a dune habitat. Plants were cultivated
hydroponically at three salinity levels: 0, 10 and 100 mM NaCl. With the 100 mM salt treatment,Calystegia soldanella (C3 species) had the highest relative growth rate (RGR) (0.085 g g−1 d−1), followed byCarex kobomugi (C3) (0.066), andIschaemum anthephoroides (C4) (0.060). This order coincides with the distribution pattern of the three species on coastal dunes;Calystegia soldanella is generally distributed in more seaward areas whereasI. anthephoroides occurs further inland. The order of RGR was determined exclusively by leaf area ratio (LAR) among the three species. Due
to its C4 pathway,I. anthephoroides had higher net photosynthetic rate (Pn) and net assimilation rate (NAR) than the two C3 plants at all NaCl concentrations, despite its low RGR. This apparent discrepancy is explainable by differences of LAR among
the three species; LAR ofI. anthephoroides was lowest, and about half that ofCalystegia soldanella. These results suggest that LAR is one of the main determinants of salt tolerance based on RGR, whereas Pn or NAR may not
be significant.

A greenhouse experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of silicon application on Phaseolus vulgaris L. under two levels of salt stress (30 and 60 mM NaCl in the irrigation water). Salinity significantly reduced growth, stomatal
conductance and net photosynthetic rate, and increased Na+ and Cl− content mainly in roots. Silicon application enhanced growth of salt stressed plants, significantly reduced Na+ content especially in leaves and counterbalanced the effects of NaCl on gas exchange; the effect was more evident at 30 mM
NaCl. Cl− content in shoots and roots was not significantly modified by silicon application; the drop in K+ content caused by salinity was partially counterbalanced by silicon, especially in roots. 相似文献

Two gramineous species among wild plants, Echinochloa oryzicola Vasing and Setaria viridis (L.) Beauv., and Oryza sativa L. cv. Nipponbare were subjected to salt stress. The relative growth rate (RGR), Na content, photosynthetic rate, antioxidant enzymes activity (superoxide disumutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), ascorbate peroxidase (APx) and glutathione reductase (GR)), and malondialdehyde (MDA) content in leaves after NaCl treatment were studied. RGR significantly decreased in O. sativa more than in E. oryzicola and S. viridis. Comparatively salt-tolerant S. viridis showed higher growth rate, lower Na accumulation rate in leaves, higher photosynthetic rate, and induced more SOD, CAT, APx, and GR activity and lower increase of MDA content as compared to the salt-sensitive O. sativa. At the same time, the comparatively salt-tolerant E. oryzicola also showed higher growth rate, much lower Na accumulation and no observable increase of MDA content, even though the CAT and APx activities were not induced by salinity. These results suggested that the scavenging system induced by H2O2-mediated oxidative damage might, at least in part, play an important role in the mechanism of salt tolerance against cell toxicity of NaCl in some gramineous plants 相似文献

Salt-induced changes in growth, photosynthetic pigments, various gas exchange characteristics, relative membrane permeability
(RMP), relative water content (RWC) and ion accumulation were examined in a greenhouse experiment on eight sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) cultivars. Sunflower cultivars, namely Hysun-33, Hysun-38, M-3260, S-278, Alstar-Rm, Nstt-160, Mehran-II and Brocar were
subjected to non-stress (0 mM NaCl) or salt stress (150 mM NaCl) in sand culture. On the basis of percent reduction in shoot
biomass, cvs. Hysun-38 and Nstt-160 were found to be salt tolerant, cvs. Hysun-33, M-3260, S-278 and Mehran-II moderately
tolerant and Alstar-Rm and Brocar salt sensitive. Salt stress markedly reduced growth, different gas exchange characteristics
such as photosynthetic rate (A), water-use efficiency (WUE) calculated as A/E, transpiration rate (E), internal CO2 concentration (C
i) and stomatal conductance (g
s) in all cultivars. The effect of 150 mM NaCl stress was non-significant on chlorophyll a and b contents, chlorophyll a/b ratio, RWC, RMP and leaf and root Cl−, K+ and P contents; however, salt stress markedly enhanced C
i
/C
a ratio, free proline content and leaf and root Na+ concentrations in all sunflower cultivars. Of all cultivars, cv. Hysun-38 was higher in gas exchange characteristics, RWC
and proline contents as compared with the other cultivars. Overall, none of the earlier-mentioned physiological attributes
except leaf K+/Na+ ratio was found to be effective in discriminating the eight sunflower cultivars as the response of each cultivar to salt
stress appraised using various physiological attributes was cultivar-specific. 相似文献

To understand the mechanisms of salt tolerance in a halophyte, sea aster (Aster tripolium L.), we studied the changes of water relation and the factors of photosynthetic limitation under water stress and 300 mM
NaCl stress. The contents of Na+ and Cl- were highest in NaCl-stressed leaves. Leaf osmotic potentials (Ψ
s) were decreased by both stress treatments, whereas leaf turgor pressure (Ψ
t) was maintained under NaCl stress. Decrease inΨ
s without any loss ofΨ
t accounted for osmotic adjustment using Na+ and Cl- accumulated under NaCl stress. Stress treatments affected photosynthesis, and stomatal limitation was higher under water
stress than under NaCl stress. Additionally, maximum CO2 fixation rate and O2 evolution rate decreased only under water stress, indicating irreversible damage to photosynthetic systems, mainly by dehydration.
Water stress severely affected the water relation and photosynthetic capacity. On the other hand, turgid leaves under NaCl
stress have dehydration tolerance due to maintenance of Ψ
t and photosynthetic activity. These results show that sea aster might not suffer from tissue dehydration in highly salinized
environments. We conclude that the adaptation of sea aster to salinity may be accomplished by osmotic adjustment using accumulated
Na+ and Cl-, and that this plant has typical halophyte characteristics, but not drought tolerance.
