When the Cd concentration was over 50.00 mg/kg, with the increased Cd concentration, the CAT activity declined significantly, the synergistic effect between SOD and CAT was weakened, the MDA content increased greatly, and the root vigor decreased, leading to inhibited growth of P. vaginatum. When the Cd concentration was in the range of 0-50 mg/kg, the root vigor of P. vaginatum did not decline obviously, the activity of protective enzymes (SOD and CAT) was enhanced, and the MDA accumulation and cell membrane permeability did not increase significantly, thus the damage of Cd to P. vaginatum was lighter. Roots of P. vaginatum showed strong enrichment capacity for Cd. When the Cd concentration was up to 200.00 mg/kg, the Cd contents in shoot and root of P. vaginatum reached 39.15 and 1 097.38 mg/kg, respectively. It suggests that in the concentration range of 0-50.00 mg/kg, P. vaginatum can make effective responses to Cd stress and grow normally, and it can be planted as a candidate material to remediate Cd-contaminated soil.展开更多

Plants with increased chromosome numbers exhibited a high degree of intraplant chromosome variation (aneusomaty). In one of the SC2seedlings, the chromosome number of root tip cells varied from 58 to 82 and in several other seedlings the range was more than 10. The results suggested that the ability to form seed apomictically was much reduced in C39 and that this plant showed some capacity for sexual reproduction and the resulting seedlings, with a chromosome number of about 70, were genetically unstable. Of 11 SC2 seedlings examined cytolog ically, 6 did not produce any viable seed. Seedlings grown from seed of the remaining 5 plants showed that aneusomaty persisted in the SC3 generation. SC3 seedlings which were phenotypically similar to their maternal parent showed a similar range of chromosome numbers to that parent. Some of the SC3 seedlings exhibited an even wider range of chromosome numbers (e.g.56-136), and these plants were all dwarfs.展开更多
