Abstract:

Methyl jasmonate (MeJA) is an elicitor evolving in a variety of physiological and biochemical processes. To explore the effects of exogenous MeJA on tobacco seedlings under low temperature conditions, we used the tobacco variety “Yuyan 10” and sprayed four concentrations (1, 10, 100, 1000 μmol L -1) of MeJA for 3 days on plants. Under low temperature with the treatment under normal temperature as positive and that under low temperature on negative control. The growth indicators, relative electrolyte permeability, photosynthetic pigment content, antioxidant enzyme activity and hormone content of each treatment were measured, showing that the treatment with 10 μmol L -1 methyl jasmonate could reduce the damage of tobacco seedlings caused by low temperature. The effect of H2O2 was then verified by applications of DPI, 10 μmol L -1 MeJA, and DPI+MeJA with the same material and growth period, while low temperature treatment was used as a control. The contents of H2O2, O 2-, CAT, MDA, and ASA-GSH cycle were determined. In conclusion, H2O2 in tobacco plants mainly exists as a poison molecule instead of a second messenger under the treatment of exogenous methyl jasmonate combined with low temperature.

Key words: low temperature stress, tobacco seedlings, MetJA, H2O2 conduction
