摘要
The responses of antioxidative system and photosystem II photochemistry of rice ( Oryza sativa L.) to paraquat induced oxidative stress were investigated in a chilling-tolerant cultivar Xiangnuo no. 1, and a chilling-susceptible cultivar, IR-50. Electrolyte leakage and malondialdehyde (MDA) content of Xiangnuo no. 1 were little affected by paraquat, but they increased in IR-50. After paraquat treatment, superoxide dismutase ( SOD) activity remained high in Xiangnuo no. 1, while it declined in IR-50. Activities of catalase ( CAT), ascorbate peroxidase (APX) and glutathione reductase (GR) declined with oxidative stress in both cultivars, but Xiangnuo no. 1 had higher GR activity than IR-50. Under paraquat induced oxidative stress, ascorbic acid (AsA) and reduced glutathione (GSH) concentrations remained high in Xiangnuo no. 1, but decreased in IR-50. The results indicated that higher activities of SOD and GR and higher contents of AsA and GSH in Xiangnuo no. 1 under paraquat induced oxidative stress were associated with its tolerance to paraquat, while paraquat induced damage to IR-50 was related to decreased activities of SOD, APX and GR and contents of AsA and GSH. F-v/F-m, F PSII, and qP remained high in Xiangnuo no. 1, while they decreased greatly in IR-50 under paraquat induced oxidative stress.
