Abstract:

In order to study the change of moisture content and its effects on the rice seeds germination under salt and alkali stress, and the feasibility of using low field nuclear magnetic detection technology to determine seed moisture content, two varieties (Yanjing 48 and Liaoxing 1) of rice seeds were placed in culture dish with the solution of 50, 150mmol/L NaCl, NaHCO3 and distilled water (control) respectively, nuclear magnetic resonance signal amplitude variation and effects of different solutions on germination characteristics were analyzed, and the regression equation was deduced between NMR signal amplitude per unit mass rice seed samples and the wet base moisture content. The results showed that the nuclear magnetic signal amplitudes of the two varieties of rice seeds increased by 65%, 95%, 115% and 135% respectively after seeds germination 6, 22, 48, and 72h compared with control treatment. After germination for the same time, the amplitude of NMR signal decreased by more than 5% under NaCl and NaHCO3 stress, the germination index decreased by more than 4.5% compared with the control treatment, indicating that there was a positive correlation between moisture content and seed germination index. There was a consistent linear correlation between NMR signal amplitude per unit mass and the wet base moisture content under different NaCl and NaHCO3 stress, R2 were all greater than 0.95. The results showed that it was reasonable and reliable to measure the water content of rice seeds under salt and alkali stress by nuclear magnetic resonance technology.

Key words: Nuclear magnetic resonance relaxation spectrum, Salt stress, Alkali stress, Rice seeds, Wet base moisture content
