Abstract:

In order to explore the physiological regulation mechanism of ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) under alleviating chromium stress in cucumber seedlings, “Hengyou Vegetable Garden” was used as test materials in soil culture with 120mg/L chromium ion solution to simulate chromium stress, the effects of different concentrations of EDTA (W1: 1mmol/L, W2: 2mmol/L and W3: 4mmol/L) on seedling growth and physiological characteristics under chromium stress were studied. The results showed that, W2 and W3 treatments promoted the increase of plant height and dry matter weight of shoot in seedling. Meanwhile, W2 treatment increased the photochemical and non-photochemical quenching coefficients of leaf photosystem. Peroxidase (POD) activity in leaves and roots of seedlings was significantly increased after the treatments, while malondialdehyde (MDA) content in leaves was significantly decreased under W2 and W3 treatments, and MDA content in roots was significantly decreased under W3 treatment. The content of soluble protein in seedling leaves decreased, while the content of proline had been increased under the treatments. In conclusion, 1-2mmol/L EDTA under chromium stress could improve photosynthesis of cucumber seedlings, enhance POD activity and osmotic regulation ability, slow down the level of membrane lipid peroxidation of seedlings, and promote shoot morphological development of seedlings, thus effectively alleviating the harm of chromium stress on seedlings.
