THE INFLUENCE OF HIGH Cd CONCENTRATIONS ON WINTER WHEAT (Triticum aestivum L.) AND CANOLA (Brassica napus L.) ETIOLATED SHOOTS
Journal Title: Журнал ÑтреÑÑ-физиологии и биохимии - Year 2009, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
The influence of high CdCl2 concentrations on winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and canola (Brassica napus L.) etiolated shoots was studied. It is shown that if in canola high Cd concentrations caused full inhibition of weight and length increase of shoots, in wheat these Cd concentrations caused less effect. The influence of high Cd concentrations on lipid peroxidation in wheat in canola differs too. If in canola Cd treatment caused the increase of lipid peroxidation rate, in wheat in most wariants this treatment caused the decrease of lipid peroxidation rate. The very high peroxidase activity in wheat may be an important part of Cd-resistance mechanism in wheat shoots.
