Physiological and Gene Expression Responses of Six Annual Ryegrass Cultivars to Cobalt, Lead, and Nickel Stresses
Heavy metals negatively affect soil quality and crop growth. In this study, we compared the tolerance of six ryegrass cultivars to cobalt (Co(2+)), lead (Pb(2+)), and nickel (Ni(2+)) stresses by analyzing their physiological indexes and transcript levels of genes encoding metal transporters.

description | Heavy metals negatively affect soil quality and crop growth. In this study, we compared the tolerance of six ryegrass cultivars to cobalt (Co(2+)), lead (Pb(2+)), and nickel (Ni(2+)) stresses by analyzing their physiological indexes and transcript levels of genes encoding metal transporters. Compared with the other cultivars, the cultivar Lm1 showed higher germination rates and better growth under Co(2+), Pb(2+), or Ni(2+) treatments. After 48 h of Co(2+) treatment, the total antioxidant capacity of all six ryegrass cultivars was significantly increased, especially that of Lm1. In contrast, under Pb(2+) stress, total antioxidant capacity of five cultivars was significantly decreased, but that of Lm1 was unaffected at 24 h. Staining with Evans blue dye showed that the roots of Lm1 were less injured than were roots of the other five ryegrass cultivars by Co(2+), Pb(2+), and Ni(2+). Lm1 translocated and accumulated lesser Co(2+), Pb(2+), and Ni(2+) than other cultivars. In Lm1, genes encoding heavy metal transporters were differentially expressed between the shoots and roots in response to Co(2+), Pb(2+), and Ni(2+). The aim of these researches could help find potential resource for phytoremediation of heavy metal contamination soil. The identified genes related to resistance will be useful targets for molecular breeding. |
