Abstract:
Under simulated environment of 35℃ and 700μmol/mol CO
2,the activities of antioxidant enzymes and changes of lipid peroxidation in
Larix principis-rupprechtii Mayr seedlings were investigated. The results show that activities of superoxide dismatase (SOD), peroxidase (POD) and catelase (CAT) are decreased under the stress of high temperature, while increased under doubled CO
2 and the complex stress of high temperature and doubled CO
2. The content of malondialdehyde (MDA) raises under high temperature, but reduces under doubled CO
2, as well as the complex stress. The results indicate that doubled CO
2 could effectively elevate the defensive capacity of
Larix principis-rupprechtii Mayr seedlings against the stress of high temperature by improving antioxidant enzyme activity.
