Abstract
A test using solution culture was conducted to have revealed that mercury, a heavy metal, could increase permeability of plasma in membrane of wheat seedling and MDA accumulation. While activities of both SOD and POD were increased and the growth of seedling was decreased. In addition, all these effects were positively correlated with Hg concentration. It has also been discovered that when 10-3mol/L Zn2+ was added into Hg2+ stressed solution, the physiological -biochemical changes caused by Hg2+ toxicity could be restored at different degrees.
