Abstract:

In order to survey effect of salinity and cadmium on catalase and peroxidase enzymes activity , proline accumulation, Malondialdehyde and protein content variation in  Brassica oleracea an experiment was conducted in green house condition factorial design based on completely random block in 2014 year. The first factor was cadmium at four levels (0, 50, 100 and 200 ppm) and second factor was salinity at three levels (0, 50, 100 ppm). According to result of this experiment, catalase and peroxidase enzymes activity and proline and Malondialdehyde accumulation increased with Cd accumulation and protein content decreased. Under salinity stress peroxidase enzymes activity and Malondialdehyde accumulation increased. Interaction effect of cadmium and salinity cause to decrease Malondialdehyde accumulation, decrease protein content and decrease peroxidase and catalase enzyme activity.

Effect of cadmium on oxidative enzymes activity in Persian clover (Trifolium resupinatum L.). Homayun Ghasemi1, Mojtaba Yousefirad*1 and Mozhgan Farzami Sepehr

Heavy metals are among soil pollutant resources that in case of accumulation in the soil and absorption by the plant, enter into the food chain and poison the plants or the people who consume those plants. This research was performed in order to examine the role of cadmium as a heavy metal in the activity of catalase and peroxidase as well as protein concentration in Trifolium resupinatum L. ba...

Morpho-physiological Characteristics of Brassica napus L. Under Cadmium Stress

Cadmium as a heavy metal is also considered as a serious threat for the environment. This element is accumulated in soil through industrial processes as well as phosphate fertilizers and aggregates into the food chain. This study was conducted in order to investigate the different levels of cadmium effects on growth features of rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) plants. Root and shoot weight and heig...

Avena fatua and Phalaris minor are narrow-leaved weeds that pose problems for many crops. In order to study the effects of sodium chloride (NaCl) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) on germination and initial seedling growth of Avena fatua and Phalaris minor, an experiment was conducted based on a completely randomized design with 4 replications under laboratory conditions during 2011-2012. Eight lev...
