NaCl处理对西伯利亚白刺幼苗生长及离子平衡的影响

以1年生西伯利亚白刺水培幼苗为材料,研究了不同浓度NaCl(0、200、400mmol·L~(-1))处理对幼苗生长及不同器官(根、茎、叶)中Na~+、K~+、Ca~(2+)、Mg~(2+)的吸收、运输与分配的影响,探讨西伯利亚白刺的盐适应机制。结果表明:(1)200mmol·L~(-1) NaCl处理促进了西伯利亚白刺幼苗的生长及叶片肉质化程度,400mmol·L-1 NaCl处理显著抑制其生长。(2)随着NaCl处理浓度的升高,西伯利亚白刺幼苗根、茎、叶中Na~+含量显著增加,且叶中Na~+含量显著高于茎和根中;根系中K~+含量显著增加;根、茎、叶中Ca~(2+)、Mg~(2+)含量在200mmol·L~(-1) NaCl处理下保持平稳或上升,而在400mmol·L-1 NaCl处理下显著下降。(3)各器官中K~+/Na~+、Ca~(2+)/Na~+和Mg~(2+)/Na~+比值总体随NaCl处理浓度的升高呈下降趋势,且根部离子比值始终高于叶片和茎。(4)随着NaCl处理浓度的升高,西伯利亚白刺幼苗根-茎SK,Na显著下降,而根-茎SCa,Na、SMg,Na及茎-叶SK,Na、SCa,Na、SMg,Na逐渐提高。研究发现,西伯利亚白刺的盐适应机制主要是通过植株的补偿生长效应及叶片对Na~+的聚积作用实现的,同时也与根系对K~+的扣留及茎叶对K~+、Ca~(2+)、Mg~(2+)选择性运输能力增强有关。     

盐胁迫对中国柽柳幼苗生理特性的影响

以中国柽柳(Tamarix chinensis Lour.)插穗为研究材料,在装有不同土壤盐分梯度(0.4%、0.8%、1.2%、1.6%、2.0%、2.4%)的盆钵中进行扦插试验,测定柽柳扦插成活率、叶绿素含量、超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活性、过氧化物酶(POD)活性及丙二醛(MDA)含量等指标,研究分析柽柳扦插成活率及幼苗生理特性对盐分胁迫的响应特征。结果表明:(1)柽柳扦插成活率随盐胁迫增强逐渐降低,适合扦插繁殖的土壤含盐量低于0.8%;土壤含盐量超过0.8%后,扦插成活率太低,不适合柽柳进行扦插繁殖。(2)柽柳可通过提高叶绿素含量来适应盐胁迫,随着盐胁迫增强,柽柳扦插幼苗叶片中叶绿素含量先升高后降低,但过高的盐胁迫会破坏叶绿素的合成。(3)柽柳扦插幼苗叶片SOD和POD活性随盐胁迫增强先升高后降低,通过提高SOD和POD活性来清除细胞内多余的活性氧自由基,但活性氧自由基积累过多时,膜脂过氧化作用会破坏细胞膜的稳定性,导致抗氧化酶活性降低。(4)柽柳扦插幼苗叶片MDA含量随盐胁迫的增强先升高后降低。在土壤含盐量0.4%—1.2%范围内,MDA含量虽高于CK,但各盐分处理之间差异不显著。在含盐量为1.6%时,叶片细胞受到膜脂过氧化作用加强,MDA含量显著升高,但含盐量为2.0%时,MDA含量降低。     

Effect of salinisation of soil on growth, water status and general nutrient accumulation in seedlings of Delonix regia (Fabaceae)

Greenhouse experiments were conducted to assess the effect of salinisation of soil on emergence, growth, water content, proline content and mineral accumulation of seedlings of Delonix regia (Hook.) Raf. (Fabaceae). Sodium chloride (NaCl) was added to the soil and salinity was maintained at 0.3, 1.9, 3.9, 6.0 and 7.9 dS m⁻¹. A negative relationship between seedling emergence and salt concentration was obtained. Salinity caused reduction in water content and water potential of tissues (leaves, stems, tap roots and lateral roots) that resulted in internal water deficit to plants. Consequently, shoot and root elongation, leaf expansion and dry matter accumulation in leaves, stems, tap roots and lateral root tissues of seedlings significantly decreased in response to increasing concentration of salt. Proline content in tissues was very low. There were no effective mechanisms to control net uptake of Na on root plasma membrane and subsequently its transport to shoot tissues. Potassium content significantly decreased in tissues in response to salinisation of soil. This tree species is a moderate salt-tolerant glycophytic plant. Nitrogen and calcium content in tissues significantly decreased as soil salinity increased. Phosphors content in tissues exhibited a declining trend with increase in soil salinity. Changes in tissues and whole-plant accumulation pattern of other elements tested, as well as possible mechanisms for avoidance of Na toxicity in this tree species in response to salinisation, are discussed.     

盐胁迫对槲树(Quercus dentata)幼苗离子平衡及其生理生化特性的影响

检测NaCl胁迫对槲树（Quercus dentata）幼苗离子平衡和生理生化特性的影响,为揭示槲树的耐盐机理,其在园林中的推广应用提供参考。以一年生槲树实生苗作为实验材料,经100、200、300 mmol/L的NaCl溶液浇灌处理30 d,测定不同时间的离子含量和生理生化指标变化。结果表明,随NaCl浓度的增加和处理的时间延长,槲树各指标表现出以下规律：（1）根茎叶积累大量Na⁺,引起离子毒害,导致叶片受损,根系Na⁺含量显著高于地上部分,这种补偿作用有助于减轻地上部分受到的损害;（2）各部分K⁺含量降低,根部较茎叶更为显著,导致Na⁺/K⁺明显升高;（3）Ca²⁺由根部向地上部分转运,在叶片中浓度显著增加,有助于建立新的离子稳态;（4）Mg²⁺含量总体上呈降低趋势;（5）叶片含水量逐渐降低,丙二醛含量和相对电导率逐步升高,且在重度胁迫下的变化更显著;（6）轻度盐胁迫下,叶片过氧化物酶（POD）活性无显著变化,而过氧化氢酶（CAT）和超氧化物歧化酶（SOD）活性逐渐升高,在重度胁迫下3种酶活性出现降低;（7）脯氨酸和可溶性糖少量积累,辅助调节渗透平衡。总之,槲树幼苗能够通过调控离子平衡,提升抗氧化酶活性,积累渗透调节物,从而提高耐盐性,抵御200 mmol/L以下的NaCl胁迫。     

Transgenic cotton (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Gossypium hirsutum</Emphasis> L.) seedlings expressing a tobacco glutathione <Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis>-transferase fail to provide improved stress tolerance

Transgenic cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) lines expressing the tobacco glutathione S-transferase (GST) Nt107 were evaluated for tolerance to chilling, salinity, and herbicides, antioxidant enzyme activity, antioxidant compound levels, and lipid peroxidation. Although transgenic seedlings exhibited ten-fold and five-fold higher GST activity under normal and salt-stress conditions, respectively, germinating seedlings did not show improved tolerance to salinity, chilling conditions, or herbicides. Glutathione peroxidase (GPX) activity in transgenic seedlings was 30% to 60% higher under normal conditions, but was not different than GPX activity in wild-type seedlings under salt-stress conditions. Glutathione reductase, superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase, and monodehydroascorbate reductase activities were not increased in transgenic seedlings under salt-stress conditions, while dehydroascorbate reductase activity was decreased in transgenic seedlings under salt-stress conditions. Transgenic seedlings had 50% more oxidized glutathione when exposed to salt stress. Ascorbate levels were not increased in transgenic seedlings under salt-stress conditions. Malondialdehyde content in transgenic seedlings was nearly double that of wild-type seedlings under normal conditions and did not increase under salt-stress conditions. These results show that expression of Nt107 in cotton does not provide adequate protection against oxidative stress and suggests that the endogenous antioxidant system in cotton may be disrupted by the expression of the tobacco GST.     

Salt tolerance in the halophyte Suaeda maritima L. Dum.

Osmotic potentials and individual epidermal cell turgor pressures were measured in the leaves of seedlings of Suaeda maritima growing over a range of salinities. Leaf osmotic potentials were lower (more negative) the higher the salt concentration of the solution and were lowest in the youngest leaves and stem apices, producing a gradient of osmotic potential towards the apex of the plant. Epidermal cell turgor pressures were of the order of 0.25 to 0.3 MPa in the youngest leaves measured, decreasing to under 0.05 MPa for the oldest leaves. This pattern of turgor pressure was largely unaffected by external salinity. Calculation of leaf water potential indicated that the gradient between young leaves and the external medium was not altered by salinity, but with older leaves, however, this gradient diminished from being the same as that for young leaves in the absence of NaCl, to under 30% of this value at 400 mM NaCl. These results are discussed in relation to the growth response of S. maritima.     

Increased glycine betaine synthesis and salinity tolerance in AhCMO transgenic cotton lines

Glycine betaine is an osmoprotectant that plays an important role and accumulates rapidly in many plants during salinity or drought stress. Choline monooxygenase (CMO) is a major catalyst in the synthesis of glycine betaine. In our previous study, a CMO gene (AhCMO) cloned from Atriplex hortensis was introduced into cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) via Agrobacterium mediation to enhance resistance to salinity stress. However, there is little or no knowledge of the salinity tolerance of the transgenic plants, particularly under saline-field conditions. In the present study, two transgenic AhCMO cotton lines of the T₃ generation were used to study the AhCMO gene expression, and to determine their salinity tolerance in both greenhouse and field under salinity stress. Molecular analysis confirmed that the transgenic plants expressed the AhCMO gene. Greenhouse study showed that on average, seedlings of the transgenic lines accumulated 26 and 131% more glycine betaine than those of non-transgenic plants (SM3) under normal and salt-stress (150 mmol l⁻¹ NaCl) conditions, respectively. The osmotic potential, electrolyte leakage and malondialdehyde (MDA) accumulation were significantly lower in leaves of the transgenic lines than in those of SM3 after salt stress. The net photosynthesis rate and Fv/Fm in transgenic cotton leaves were less affected by salinity than in non-transgenic cotton leaves. Therefore, transgenic cotton over-expressing AhCMO was more tolerant to salt stress due to elevated accumulation of glycine betaine, which provided greater protection of the cell membrane and photosynthetic capacity than in non-transgenic cotton. The seed cotton yield of the transgenic plants was lower under normal conditions, but was significantly higher than that of non-transgenic plants under salt-stressed field conditions. The results indicate that over-expression of AhCMO in cotton enhanced salt stress tolerance, which is of great value in cotton production in the saline fields.     

Effect of salinisation of soil on growth, water status and general nutrient accumulation in seedlings .of Delonix regia (Fabaceae)

Greenhouse experiments were conducted to assess the effect of salinisation of soil on emergence, growth, water content, proline content and mineral accumulation of seedlings of Delonix regia (Hook.)

Agronomical and physiological characterization of salinity tolerance in a commercial tomato hybrid

The salt tolerance of the commercial F1 tomato hybrid (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill) Radja (GC-793) has been agronomically and physiologically evaluated under greenhouse conditions, using a control (nutrient solution), a moderate (70 mM NaCl added to the nutrient solution) and a high salt level (140 mM NaCl), applied for 130 days. The results show that Radja is a Na⁺-excluder genotype, tolerant to moderate salinity. Fruit yield was reduced by 16% and 60% and the shoot biomass by 30% and more than 75% under moderate and high salinities, respectively. At 90 days of salt treatment (DST), the mature leaves feeding the 4th truss at fruiting accumulated little Na⁺ (178 mmol kg^-1 DW). At this time, the sucrose concentration in these leaves even increased with moderate salinity and the amino acid proline was not accumulated under salt conditions as compared to control. At 130 DST, Na⁺ was accumulated mainly by the roots in proportion to the salt level applied, while in leaves appreciable amounts were found only at high salinity (452 mmol kg^-1 DW). In the leaves, Cl^- was always accumulated in proportion to the salt level and in a very much greater amounts than Na⁺ (until 1640 mmol kg^-1 DW). The sucrose content was reduced in all plants by salinity, and was distributed preferentially toward the distal stem and peduncle of a truss at fruiting under moderate salinity, and toward the basal stem and root at high salinity. Moreover, proline was accumulated in different organs of the plant only at high salinity, coinciding with Na⁺ accumulation in leaves. Attempts are made to find a clear relationship between physiological behaviour triggered by stress and the agronomical behaviour, in order to assess the validity of physiological traits used for salt-tolerance selection and breeding in tomato.     

Growth and protein profile responses in the halophyte sea aster (Aster tripolium L.) suspension-cultured cells to salinity

We established salt tolerant cell lines, which survived and grew under high salinity conditions with 150 mM (S-150) and 300 mM (S-300) NaCl, to study the effects of salt stress on the proliferation and protein profile of these cells in the halophyte sea aster,Aster tripolium L. These salt-adapted cell lines were produced from leaves and selected by repeated suspension subculture in media containing NaCl every 25 days for five cycles. S-150 cells displayed no inhibition in their growth compared to control cells maintained under non-stressed conditions. S-150 cells exhibited approximately a 15-fold increase in both fresh and dry weight during the 25 days under saline conditions. S-300 cells showed positive growth under severe salt stress, but their dry matter gain was significantly less than that of the S-150 cells, with only a 2.5-fold increase in dry weight. We also detected changes in the protein profile of salt-adapted cells with two specifically induced polypeptides (basic 58.4 and acidic 24.8 kDa) and one enhanced polypeptide (basic 15.1 kDa) in the soluble fraction, and one specifically induced polypeptide (42.0 kDa) in the insoluble fraction.     

NaCl胁迫对流苏幼苗生长、钠钾离子分布及渗透调节物质的影响

以2年生的流苏播种苗为材料,采用不同浓度(50、100、200、300 mmol·L^-1)NaCl溶液进行胁迫处理,研究盐胁迫对流苏的生长、Na^+和K^+分布格局、渗透调节物质的影响,以明确其耐盐阈值。结果表明:(1)随着NaCl胁迫浓度的增加,流苏幼苗生长量逐渐降低,盐害指数升高、存活率下降;幼苗耐盐阈值为98.693 mmol·L^-1(0.577%W/V)。(2)随着NaCl胁迫浓度的增加,流苏幼苗各器官中的Na^+含量持续增加,并在浓度为50 mmol·L^-1时表现为根>叶>茎,在其余各处理组表现为叶>根>茎;幼苗根、叶中的K^+含量表现为先增后减的变化趋势,茎中K^+含量总体表现为下降趋势,且器官中K^+含量表现为根>叶>茎;幼苗根部到茎部和茎部到叶部的离子选择性运输能力、各器官中的K^+/Na^+比值均呈下降趋势。(3)随着NaCl浓度的增加,流苏幼苗叶片可溶性糖、可溶性蛋白含量总体呈上升趋势,其脯氨酸含量呈先上升后下降的趋势。研究发现,流苏幼苗根系可通过对Na^+的吸收和累积来阻止其向地上部运输进而避免盐害发生;叶片和茎中通过提高对K^+的选择性吸收和累积,从而增大K^+/Na^+比值以减缓盐分对其生理代谢的伤害。     

Identification and quantification of the major endogenous cytokinins in pistachio seedlings

The major endogenous cytokinins, Z, ZR, DHZ, DHZR, iP and iPR in pistachio seedlings (Pistacia vera L. cv. Ohadi) were purified by HPLC and their identities confirmed using GC-MS. The aerial parts of two-year old pistachio seedlings including mature leaves, young leaves, lateral buds, debarked stems and bark were subjected to analysis. All of the above mentioned cytokinins were identified in the aerial parts except DHZ which was only present in mature leaves. Z-type cytokinins contributed almost 43% of the total cytokinins. ZR and DHZR were identified as the major ribosides and iP as the main base. The greatest concentration of ZR was detected in the bark, amounting to about 48%. DHZR and ZR constituted the major portion of the total cytokinins detected in both young and mature leaves while Z was detected as a minor cytokinin in leaves. The sharp increase of iP concentration during leaf maturation indicates that mature leaves are probably capable of de novo biosynthesis of cytokinins. The absence of DHZ (except in mature leaves) and the presence of considerable concentrations of DHZR in pistachio stems suggest that these tissues are able to metabolize DHZ to DHZR. The large amount of ZR in pistachio leaves suggests that root-derived ZR is transported into the leaves after loading into the xylem. The presence of high amounts of iP in pistachio lateral buds indicates that iP has been accumulated in these parts. The occurrence of a totally different cytokinin distribution pattern in buds, as compared with the other aerial parts, possibly results from their different metabolism.     

Salt tolerance of the annual halophyte <Emphasis Type="Italic">Cakile maritima</Emphasis> as affected by the provenance and the developmental stage

Though halophytes are naturally adapted to salinity, their salt-tolerance limits are greatly influenced by their provenance and developmental stage. In the present study, physio-biochemical responses of two Tunisian ecotypes of the oilseed coastal halophyte Cakile maritima (Brassicaceae) to salinity (0–400 mM NaCl) were monitored during germination and vegetative growth stages. Tabarka and Jerba seeds were collected from humid or arid climatic areas, respectively. Plant response to salinity appeared to depend on the ecotype and salinity levels. Increasing salinity inhibited germination process. Jerba seeds were found to be more salt tolerant than the Tabarka ones. At the autotrophic stage of growth and under salt-free conditions, Jerba was less productive than Tabarka (in terms of dry matter accumulation), but plant biomass production and leaf expansion (area and number) of the former ecotype were progressively improved by 100 mM NaCl, as compared to the control. In contrast, at the same salt concentration, these parameters decreased under increasing salinity in Tabarka (salt sensitive). Leaf chlorophyll content was reduced at severe salinity, but this effect was more conspicuous in the sensitive Tabarka plants. Na⁺ contents in the Jerba and Tabarka leaves collected from the 400 mM NaCl-treated plants were 17- and 12-fold higher than in the respective controls. This effect was accompanied by a significant reduction in the leaf K⁺, Mg²⁺ and Ca²⁺ contents, especially in the salt-treated Tabarka. A significant accumulation of proline and soluble carbohydrates in leaves was found during the period of intensive leaf growth. These organic compounds likely play a role in leaf osmotic adjustment and in protection of membrane stability at severe salinity.     

三种红树植物对盐胁迫的生理适应

无瓣海桑（Sa）、海桑（Sc）、红海榄（Rs）都属于乔木红树植物。这3种红树植物对盐度的敏感程度存在着差异,因此对不同标准的盐度的适应性也大不相同。通过对这3种红树植物用不同的盐度的水3个月的处理,发现Sa和Sc叶片的净光合作用速率、气孔导度、蒸腾速率都随着盐度的增加而降低。Sa,Sc,Rs叶片中的可溶性总糖含量随着盐度的升高整体上有上升趋势。Sa和Sc茎、叶中丙二醛（MDA）含量在低盐度时（〈10）略有降低,随着盐度升高,MDA含量急速升高,而Rs茎、叶中MDA只是在盐度超过40时才会有明显增长,3种红树植物根部的MDA含量变化都不明显。Rs可以依靠超氧化物歧化酶（SOD）来消除活性氧自由基,而红树植物Sa和Sc的耐盐性稍差,SOD对膜的保护能力不强。根据实验结果,可以得出对3种红树植物对盐度的适应范围,这将为指导中国南海海岸线上的红树造林计划提供依据。     

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.     

Effects of salt stress on purslane (Portulaca oleracea) nutrition

The objective of this study was to determine the influence of saline stress on the chemical composition of purslane (Portulaca oleracea), in particular the mineral composition. Four salinity levels were investigated using irrigation solutions with electrical conductivity values of 0.8, 6.8, 12.8 and 24.2 dS m^?1 and two planting dates (May and July) were tested. Samples of full‐grown leaf and stems of purslane were harvested after 7 and 15 days of the saline treatment exposure. Chemical analysis (dry matter basis) of leaves showed significant differences among the different saline treatments for all the characteristics measured. Salinity levels, planting date and harvest time significantly influenced (P < 0.05) the levels of crude protein, total lipids, ash and carbohydrate content. Salinity treatments did not significantly (P > 0.05) affect the water content of purslane leaves. The crude protein content of purslane leaves decreased with increasing salinity levels and time of exposure to treatment. However, carbohydrates and mineral residue content increased. An unusual phenomenon was noted for intermediate salinity levels, whereby an increase in total lipid content was measured in leaves of plants exposed to salinity treatments of 6.8 and 12.8 dS m^?1. The highest mineral residue content was seen in leaves of purslane exposed to the highest salinity treatment. The mineral composition was also affected by salinity levels, Na and Cl uptake, and accumulation increased with increasing salinity in irrigation solution; Mg concentration was not significantly (P > 0.05) affected by salinity levels, although a slight increase was seen, and Ca, K and Zn levels significantly (P < 0.05) decreased. Ca and Zn preferentially accumulated in the leaves, while K and Na values were higher in the stems. A significant increase (P < 0.05) in relative ratio of Na/K, Mg/K, Na/Ca and Mg/Ca was observed with increasing salinity levels. A decrease in the yield of purslane was only observed for the most severe saline treatment, where the highest ratio of Mg/Ca was seen. This study reveals that purslane is relatively tolerant to conditions of moderate salinity, thus improving its potential to become a key vegetable crop for animal and human consumption.     

NaCl胁迫对圆柏幼苗生长和离子吸收及分配的影响

以当年生圆柏幼苗为实验材料,采用温室调控盆栽土培法研究了不同浓度NaCl(0、100、200、300mmol·L-1)胁迫21d对其生长情况及不同器官(根、茎、叶)中K~+、Na~+、Ca~(2+)和Mg~(2+)的吸收和分配的影响,以探讨圆柏幼苗对盐环境的生长适应性及耐盐机制。结果表明:(1)随着NaCl胁迫浓度的增加,圆柏幼苗生长,包括株高、地径、相对生长量以及生物量的积累均呈下降趋势,而其根冠比却增加。(2)在各浓度NaCl胁迫处理下,圆柏幼苗根、茎、叶中Na~+含量较对照均显著增加,而且叶中Na~+含量显著高于茎和根,叶中Na~+含量是根中的5倍。(3)随着NaCl胁迫浓度的升高,圆柏幼苗各器官中K~+、Ca~(2+)和Mg~(2+)含量以及K~+/Na~+、Ca~(2+)/Na~+及Mg~(2+)/Na~+比值均呈下降趋势。(4)在NaCl胁迫条件下,圆柏幼苗根系离子吸收选择性系数SK,Na、SCa,Na、SMg,Na显著提高,茎、叶离子转运选择性系数SCa,Na、SMg,Na则逐渐降低,叶中离子转运选择性系数SK,Na则随着NaCl胁迫浓度的升高显著降低,大量Na~+进入地上部,减缓了盐胁迫对根系的伤害。研究认为,圆柏幼苗的盐适应机制主要是通过根系的补偿生长效应及茎、叶对Na~+的聚积作用来实现的,同时也与根对K~+、Ca~(2+)、Mg~(2+)的选择性运输能力增强和茎、叶稳定的K~+、Ca~(2+)、Mg~(2+)的选择性运输能力有关。     

AM真菌对盐胁迫下番茄幼苗生理特征及AVP1表达的影响

采用温室盆栽试验研究不同NaCl浓度（0、50 和85 mmol/L）持续胁迫接种摩西球囊霉和地表球囊霉 2种AM真菌对加工番茄耐盐性的影响。结果显示:（1）在0 mmol/L NaCl处理条件下,2种菌的番茄菌根化苗的根系活力、叶片中可溶性糖、可溶性蛋白、根系脯氨酸含量以及超氧化物歧化酶和过氧化物酶活性均高于非菌根植株,且丙二醛含量低于非菌根植株,但差异不显著。（2）在50、85 mmol/L NaCl浓度胁迫下,接种2种菌根真菌可显著提高番茄植株根系活力,促进叶片中可溶性糖、可溶性蛋白及根系脯氨酸含量的积累,显著提高叶片中与抗逆相关的超氧化物歧化酶和过氧化物酶的活性,减少丙二醛在根系中的积累;随着NaCl浓度的增加,效果更为明显。（3）RT-PCR分析显示,AM真菌和盐胁迫共同调控H⁺转运无机焦磷酸酶H⁺- PPase的表达,随NaCl浓度的增加,AVP1基因表达量下降,但菌根化番茄植株的AVP1基因表达量显著高于非菌根植株。研究表明,接种AM真菌后,菌根化植株可通过显著促进幼苗体内渗透调节物质积累和抗氧化酶活性的提高,有效降低体内膜脂过氧化水平,同时过量表达AVP1基因增加了番茄植株中离子向液泡膜的转运,从而缓解盐胁迫对植株的伤害,增强番茄幼苗对盐胁迫的耐性。     

Physiological adaptability of three mangrove species to salt stress

The impact of salinity on three arboreal mangrove plants, Sonneratia apetala (Sa), S. caseolaris (Sc) and Rhizophora stylosa (Rs), was studied. The three mangrove species were treated with different salinity levels over a three-month period. The response and adaptation of these three mangrove species to salinity were shown to be different. Net photosynthesis rate, stomata conductance and transpiration rate of leaves decreased and soluble sugar content in leaves increased, with salt concentration in all three mangrove species. The malondial dehyde (MDA) content in stems and leaves of Sa and Sc somewhat decreased when the salinity was lower than 10, but rapidly increased with increasing salt concentration. The MDA content in stems and leaves of Rs increased only when salinity was greater than 40. No changes were observed in the MDA content of roots in the three mangrove species. The adaptabilities of Sa and Sc to salt tolerance were limited. The more salt tolerant the mangrove Rs, the more likely the free oxygen radicals were eliminated through the increase in activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD). Results of this experiment identified salinity levels best suited for the growth and metabolism of the species, which provides information necessary for maintaining mangrove forestation along the South China coast.
