Abstract

There have been dramatic developments in industry and the increasing of urban population since 1980s, which related with the amount of disposal of industrial and domestic wastewater increasing in the last years Many farmers in the suburban area get to irrigate their land with such disposing wastewater. Many experiences have shown that the sewage irrigation can increase organic matter content in soil, and is an important method to alleviate water deficit. However, it may also cause some negative effects as decreasing enzyme activity of soil, accumulating heavy metals in soil and crops, lowering poorer quality of agricultural products, and reducing crude protein and amino acids of the crop seeds. This paper deals with the effects of stress of sewage irrigation on spring wheat root antioxidant enzymes activity and seedling growth under utilizing a water cultivation experiment. The result showed that: (1) comparing with the control group, the spring wheat seedling under sewage irrigation has small height and short root length. And numbers of root, fresh and dry weight of stem, leaf and root decreased drastically; (2) Speeding up the declination of green leaves and root of spring wheat, reducing the root vigor and significantly increasing the MDA content in root have been proved relating with the stress of sewage irrigation at the same time; (3) Sewage irrigation stress also stimulated POD and SOD activities, but with the extended stress, the activities of SOD turned to be restrained, yet decreased dramatically; (4) The spring wheat seedling under disposed sewage irrigation was not significantly different from the control group.
