其他摘要 | Drought and rehydration is always a continuous process in agricultural
production. Drought resistance and recovery capacity are significantly
different among different plants and different varieties of the same plant. For
crops, there is a rapid growth upon stress release and a partial growth
recovery upon the onset of stress. Hence, recovery capacity maybe more
important to plants after rehydration. To understand the reasons of the
existence of such differences and the relation between drought resistance and
recovery capacity is important for learning the mechanisms of drought
resistance of plants, and breeding for drought resistance varieties.
The pot experiment was conducted by weighing to control water content,
and imitated drought condition, studied the growth and physiological
response of the 10 maize varieties during drought and rehydration. Compared
the differences of comprehensive drought resistance, drought resistance and
recovery capacity of the 10 maize varieties, analyzed the relation between the
physiological response and drought resistance & recovery capacity, The main
conclusions are as follows:
1. Drought resistance and recovery capacity of the 10 maize varieties during
drought and rehydration
Drought decreased the shoot dry weight of the 10 maize varieties. We
used the ratio of shoot dry weight and the contrast to indicate the drought
resistance, the drought resistance of the 10 maize varieties from strong to
weak was: Liangyu99 male parent, Limin33 female parent, Limin33 male
parent, inbred line83-1, Liangyu66 female parent, P1, Liangyu99 female
parent, Liangyu66 male parent, P3, Zhengdan958; The recovery capacity of
the 10 maize varieties from strong to weak was: P3, inbred line83-1, Zhengdan958, Limin33 male parent, Liangyu99 male parent, P1, Liangyu66
male parent, Liangyu99 female parent, Limin33 female parent, Liangyu66
female parent. Drought resistance and recovery capacity are consistent.
2. Physiological responses of the 10 maize varieties after drought and
rehydration
Drought decreased shoot dry weight, plant height, leaf relative water
content, water potential, osmotic potential, photosynthetic rate, transpiration
rate, stomatal conductance, chlorophyll content, Fv/Fm and YII; Drought
increased H2O2 content, MDA content, and starch content; NPQ, total
nitrogen content, carotenoid content and soluble sugar content showed no
apparent rule. After rehydration, the indexes above recovered compared to
contrast, some of them even displayed over compensation effects at the
physiological level.
3. The relation between the physiological characteristics and drought
resistance
Correlativity between comprehensive drought resistance and drought
resistance was not obvious, but showed obvious correlativity with recovery
capacity(r=0.9111*).We analyzed the correlativity between physiological
characteristics and drought resistance, recovery capacity and comprehensive
drought resistance, and found that chlorophyll content and the drought
resistance presented obvious negative correlation(r=-0.6760*), and positive
correlation with comprehensive drought resistance(r=0.6866*), and also
showed certain relevance with recovery capacity(r=0.5520), but the other
physiological characteristics showed no obvious correlation with drought
resistance, recovery capacity and comprehensive drought resistance.
In conclusion, drought resistance and recovery capacity are important to
comprehensive drought resistance. Both strong drought resistance(like
Liangyu99 male parent) and strong recovery capacity(like P3) may lead to a
strong comprehensive drought resistance. The recovery after rehydration is a
rapid process. Reduce the adverse effect of drought on plant is the basis of
rapid recovery after rehydration. The rapid repairmen of the damage that drought made may lead to a strong recover capacity. Obvious correlations
were showed between the chlorophyll content and drought resistance together
with comprehensive drought resistance. Chlorophyll content can be used as an
index to evaluate drought resistance and comprehensive drought resistance.
