Abstract
Salt stress is one of the environmental factors affecting plant growth and development.Brassinosteroid,a plant hormone,plays a significant role in growth and development and stress tolerance.In order to evaluate the effect of brassinosteroid on cotton under NaCl stress,exogenous brassinosteroid was applied on NaCl-stressed cotton,and the photosynthesis,root activity and antioxidant enzyme activity of two cotton cultivars(K638 and 86-1)were determined.The results showed that,under NaCl stress,cotton photosynthetic rate decreased,MDA content of cotton leaf increased,and the activities of endogenous protective enzymes(SOD,POD,CAT) declined.Exogenous brassinosteroid enhanced the antioxidant capacity of cotton leaf.Compared to NaCl stress treatment alone,SOD,POD and CAT in the cotton leaves increased in the treatment of exogenous brassinosteroid application after NaCl stress.Under NaCl stress,root activity decreased,MDA content,and the activities of SOD and CAT in cotton root increased,but exogenous brassinosteroid did not show much influence on root physiological parameters.It was indicated that exogenous brassinosteroid enhanced the resistance of cotton to NaCl stress through increasing the activity of endogenous protective enzymes in cotton leaf and alleviating the peroxidation of membrane lipid of leaf,therefore improving the photosynthesis of leaves.
