水分胁迫对黄芩植株生理生化指标的影响

通过研究水分胁迫下黄芩的部分生理生化特性,发现随着干旱胁迫的增强,叶片含水量、比叶重和叶绿素含量不断降低,表明黄芩叶片保水能力弱,在水分胁迫后持续失水;而渗透调节物质脯氨酸和可溶性糖的含量不断升高,表明黄芩可以通过渗透物质的调节来阻止或缓解水分胁迫的伤害;在高水分含量和重度干旱胁迫下净光合速率是不断下降;根、茎和叶中的次生代谢物质黄芩苷的含量变化不一致,根中的黄芩苷的含量不断上升,茎和叶中的黄芩苷含量在前期的胁迫下不断升高,但当重度胁迫时则呈下降趋势。说明脯氡酸和可溶性糖与黄芩的抗旱性密切相关,适度干旱有利于其次生代谢物质的增加。

Influence of Water Stress on the Physiological and Biochemical Characteristics of Scutellaria Baicalensis Georgi

Previous studies have shown that water stress can stimulate biosynthesis of secondary metabolites,and physiological and biochemical characteristics of plant can play a key role in its defense responses to water stress.So the physiological and biochemical characteristics of potted Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi plants were investigated under continuous water stress condition.The results showed that the water content in roots,stems and leaves,together with chlorophyll content of the leaves decreased as the water stress strengthened.Simultaneously,the specific leaf weight increased,and the content of proline and soluble sugar in Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi leaves increased significantly.The changing trends of the baicalin content in the roots,stems and leaves of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi were different.It increased continuously in roots,while ascended constantly in the stems and leaves during the early days under the water stress,but decreased sharply under the heavy stress.In conclusion,proline and soluble sugar had a close correlation with the drought resistance of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi.Moderate drought is in favor of synthesizing the secondary metabolites.
