Abstract

Pot experiments were conducted to study the physiological effects and yield of Si application on cadmium and zinc Stress of rice plants(Rice variety,Zhengdao 18).Results showed that Cd and Zn stress significantly reduced plant biomass and yield of rice,while Si application increased the biomass.Under the stress of Cd and Zn,the plasma membrane permeability,MDA content,soluble sugar content and POD activity in leaves were all significantly increased,while chlorophyll content,protein content and SOD activity in leaves were obviously decreased.Plasma membrane permeability,MDA content and soluble sugar content and POD activity in leaves were decreased after Si application,but chlorophyll and protein content of leaves and rice yield were significantly increased.These results suggested that silicon enhanced rice resistance against Cd and Zn stress by improving matter metabolism and regulating antioxidant enzyme system.

8 of 23 groups shown: named compounds and organisms first, then groups whose results differ (checked claim by claim), then those with positive and negative results, then the smaller groups.

Claims are grouped by organism, treatment and what was measured or targeted. A paper counts as positive when any of its claims in the group is positive.
