Abstract:

The aim of this study was to discuss the mechanism of chilling injury and the blocked site of chlorophyll synthesis in primary leaf, providing theoretical basis for breeding and cultivation of cold-resistant cultivars. Two Japanese adzuki bean varieties with different temperature and light reactions were used to study the effects of short-term (18 d) and long-term (28 d) low temperature shading treatments (10-13°C, 2% shading) on H2O2, SOD, CAT, APX, and Chl of seedlings in the artificial climate chamber, and the effects of the treatment durations of low temperature (1 d, 3 d, 5 d, 7 d, 10°C, 50 μmol m -2 s -1) and dark (25°C, 1 d, 3 d, 5 d, 7 d) under chlorophyll synthesis blocked site (25°C, and under illumiation at 62.5 μmol m -2 s -1for 24 h). The content of H2O2 and activity of SOD had significant difference between cold resistant and susceptible varieties during seedling stage. The content of H2O2 in susceptible variety was 66 folds of the resistant one, and with the greening treatment antioxidant activity and content of chlorophyll were rapidly dropped until totally vanished after 8 h. The main cause of difference in chlorophyll synthesis between the two varieties was the dark treatment but not the low temperature treatment. It was suggested that the transformation from δ-ALA to Proto IX might be blocked in chloroplast stroma, which eventually inhibited chlorophyll synthesis and decreased chlorophyll content. It is suggested that H2O2 content and SOD activity may be more closely related to the cold tolerance of adzuki bean at seedling stage. The transformation of Proto IX is the blocking site in chlorophyll synthesis which causes etiolated seedlings of adzuki bean.

Key words: adzuki bean, light temperature treatment, antioxidant enzymes, chlorophyll synthesis
