Abstract

Status of seed germination,changes of seedling growth and some physiological indexes in leaf of Matricaria chamomilla Linn.under NaCl stress condition with mass ratios of 0.2%,0.4%,0.6%,0.8%,1.0%,1.2% and 1.4% were analyzed,and change of transection anatomical structure of its different organs after NaCl stress was also observed by paraffin method.The results show that with rising of NaCl mass ratio,relative germination rate,germination energy and germination rate of seeds gradually decrease,while relative salt injury rate gradually increases;root length,plant height,fresh and dry weights per plant of seedlings gradually decrease,but decreasing range of root length is larger than that of plant height and that of fresh weight is larger than that of dry weight;chlorophyll content in leaf appears a trend of firstly increasing and then decreasing,while soluble sugar content,proline content and POD activity appear a gradually increasing trend.Under NaCl stress condition,relative germination rate, germination energy and germination rate of seeds all are extremely significantly(P0.01) or significantly(P0.05) lower than those of the control(0.0% NaCl),except 0.2% NaCl treatment group,relative salt injury rate of other treatment groups is extremely significantly higher than that of the control,and under 1.4% NaCl stress condition,all seeds can not germinate normally.Under NaCl stress condition,root length,plant height,fresh and dry weights per plant of seedlings of all treatment groups are significantly or extremely significantly lower than those of the control,while soluble sugar content,proline content and POD activity in leaf are significantly or extremely significantly higher than those of the control;and except 1.2% NaCl treatment group,chlorophyll content of other treatment groups is also extremely significantly higher than that of the control.Under NaCl stress condition,there are obvious changes in plant morphology and transection anatomical structure of different organs of M.chamomilla seedlings.With rising of NaCl mass ratio,M.chamomilla seedlings appear the phenomena of dwarf in plant height,dry and hard in plant,smaller leaves and increase in degree of succulence.After treated by 0.6% NaCl for twelve months,in stem transection,collenchyma number in cortex and air cavity number in parenchyma increase and vessels in vascular bundle are more developed;in root transection,air cavity number in cortex increases and vessels in vascular cylinder are relatively developed;in leaf transection,air cavity number in parenchyma of rachis increases,leaf epidermis is shrinkage and cell layers of palisade tissue increase obviously.The comprehensive analysis result suggests that M.chamomilla possesses a certain resistance to NaCl stress,but NaCl stress with high concentration has an obvious effect on its seed germination,seedling growth and morphology.
