Abstract: |
We discussed their interactions and physiological effects on the resistance to high temperature stress in Chinese cabbage using pharmacological and plant biochemical methods. It was found that high temperature stress significantly inhibited the growth of Chinese cabbage seedlings and led to wilting and obvious curling of leaves. The content of soluble sugar, soluble protein, and proline, and endogenous H2S and NO, as well as the relative conductivity, increased considerably under high temperature stress. Physiological concentrations of exogenous H2S and NO could notably mitigate the inhibition of high temperature stress on seedling growth; a strong interaction between H2S and NO was found. Exogenous H2S can alleviate the formation of endogenous NO, but not vice versa. Overall, H2S and NO together enhance the response of cabbage to high temperature stress. |
