Effects of soil water content on growth and accumulation of active ingredients of Notopterygium incisum / 中国中药杂志

To investigate the adaptive mechanism of Notopterygium incisum to water changes, one-year-old seedlings were used as test materials. The characteristics of growth, physiology, and active ingredients of N. incisum were studied at different soil water content by pot experiments. The result showed that: ①The water content at 100% field capacity is conducive to the growth and accumulation of biomass of N. incisum. The leaf length, petiole length, petiole diameter, root diameter, root length and biomass of underground dry of N. incisum were all significantly increased at the 100% field capacity, and they slightly declined at 70% field capacity. 20% field capacity could not provide the necessary water to growth of N. incisum, all N. incisum withered and died. ②With the extension of moisture treatment time, the relative content of chlorophyll (SPAD) in leaves and the activity of peroxidase (POD) in rhizome showed a trend of increasing firstly, decreasing then; the tendency of activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in rhizome increased; the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) in rhizome decreased firstly and increased then;. For the late test, the SPAD value, the activity of POD and SOD in N. incisum at the 40% field capacity were lower than 70% field capacity and 100 field capacity, while the content of MDA in rhizome were higher than 70% field capacity and 100% field capacity. ③ At 70% field capacity, the active ingredients accumulated most in the N. incisum. At the 70% field capacity, the notopterol and isoimperatorinwerehigher than100 field capacity and 40 field capacity. In summary, the soil water content at 70%-100% field capacity would contribute to the growth and accumulation of active ingredients of N. incisum.

Effect of Manganese,Cadmium and Manganese-Cadmium Combined Exposure on Cowpea Growth and Leaf Physiological Parameters / 环境与健康杂志

SOD.Conclusion Mn,Cd and Mn-Cd combined exposure has a significant inhabitation on cowpea growth with Cd alone being heaviest and Mn lowest.The physiological indicators show that when combined pollution occurs,an antagonistic effect between Mn and Cd is exhibited.
