摘要:To study the effects of selenium on physiology, Prunus davidiana seedlings were treated with
the irrigation of different selenium concentrations solution. The result showed that the photosynthetic
pigment content was relatively higher at selenium concentrations of 0, 0.05 and 0.1 mg/L except for
carotenoid content which was the highest at 0.1 mg/L but the lowest in control seedlings. In terms of
antioxidant enzyme activity, the activities of peroxidase (POD), catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase
(SOD) in selenium-treated seedlings were all higher than that in control seedlings and especially at the
selenium concentration of 1 mg/L. The soluble protein content accumulated most at 0.25 mg/L selenium
concentration. The content of malondialdehyde (MDA), as membrane lipid peroxidation index, was the
lowest at selenium concentration of 0.5 mg/L. In a word, irrigating lower selenium concentrations could
increase the photosynthetic pigment content and higher selenium concentrations enhanced the antioxidant
enzyme activity to increase cell protection and kept the P. davidiana seedlings good growth and resistance
to adverse environments.
