Physiological responses and adaptive strategies of wheat seedlings to salt and alkali stresses

Abstract: Effects of salt (NaCl : Na 2 SO 4 ) and alkali (NaHCO 3 : Na 2 CO 3 ) stresses on the contents of inorganic ions and organic solutes in wheat shoots were compared to explore the physiological responses and adaptive strategies of wheat to these stresses. Wheat significantly accumulated Na + and simultaneously accumulated Cl , soluble sugars and proline to maintain osmotic and ionic balance under salt stress. Compared with salt stress, the high pH from alkali stress enhanced Na + accumulation and affected the ab… Show more

“…In our study, under 150 mM NaHCO 3 and NaCl conditions, the fresh weight of S. corniculata declined slightly, the plants responded to alkali and salt stress by a significant inhibition of growth with increasing concentration treatment, and the phenotype changes caused by NaHCO 3 stress were more obvious than the results of NaCl stress. These results indicated that the injurious effects of alkali stress on the growth of S. corniculata were more severe than for salt stress, which was consistent with previous reports (Li et al 2009;Guo et al 2009). …”

“…In this study, both species accumulated high levels of Na + , while the K + concentration decreased (Figure 2). Similar results were found in wheat by Li et al [38] and barley by Yang et al [39]. Under such conditions, most plants can accumulate proline and soluble sugars in the protoplasm to maintain their osmotic balance.…”

“…Accumulation of betaine, proline, soluble sugar and compartmentalize of Na + ions into the vacuole are considered as the basic strategies for plant re-established cellular homeostasis under alkaline stress (Li et al 2009;Yang et al 2009). MDA is one of the end-products of oxidation unsaturated fatty acids in cellular membranes.…”

“…Yang et al (2007) reported that alkalinity stress can inhibit uptake of inorganic anions such as Cl -, NO 3 -and H 2 PO 4 -, largely affect the selective absorption of K + -Na + , and disrupt the ionic balance. However, accumulation of compatible solutes, such as betaine, proline and soluble sugar into the vacuole are considered as the basic strategies for plant re-established cellular homeostasis under alkalinity stress (Li et al 2009).…”
