Abstract

The effects of ascorbic acid on the growth of maize seedlings under waterlogging stress were studied through hydroponic method,and the biomass,the soluble sugar,soluble protein,malonaldehyde(MDA),the activities of peroxidase(POD)and catalase(CAT)in maize leaves were considered as reference variables.The results showed that after application of AsA,the root length,plant height,fresh weight and dry weight per plant,the content of soluble proteins and soluble sugar,and the activities of catalase(CAT)and peroxidase(POD)of the stressed maize seedlings were significantly increased,while,the content of malonaldehyde(produced in membrane lipid peroxidation)was significantly decreased,and the optimal AsA concentration was 0.3mmol/L.
