Seed Treatment with Salicylic Acid Increases Gene Expression and Activity of Antioxidant Enzymes in Wheat Plants in Zinc or Copper Deficiency
Doklady Biological Sciences(2024)
摘要
The effect of wheat seed treatment with salicylic acid (SA) on expression of the TaCu/ZnSOD, TaFeSOD, and TaCAT2 genes and activities of the antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) in leaves was studied at optimal contents of zinc (2 µM) and copper (0.3 µM) in the root environment and in zinc and copper deficiencies. Seed treatment with SA was for the first time shown to increase of the amount of transcripts of the above genes as compared with untreated plants, both in optimal conditions and in zinc or copper deficiency. Activities of the enzymes, especially catalase, also increased. Judging by the malondialdehyde (MDA) content, the changes make it possible to avoid an increase in lipid peroxidation (LPO) and, therefore, oxidative stress. A positive effect of seed treatment with SA on activities of the main antioxidant enzymes was assumed to underlie the stimulating effect of SA on physiological processes in plants exposed to microelement deficiency.
