[Method] Three application modes (leaf application, root application and leaf/root application) of brassinosteroid for cotton under NaCI stress were de- signed to understand the effects of brassinosteroid on Na+ and CI- accumulation, osmotic adjustment substance (proline) and biomass accumulation of cotton under NaCI stress. [Result] NaCI inhibited the growth of cotton seedlings. Compared with the control group, the biomass of cotton seedlings was decreased, Na+ and CI- contents, MDA content and proline content were increased in cotton under NaCI stress. Under the NaCI stress, three application modes of brassinosteroid significant- ly improved the biomass, chlorophyll content in leaves, root activity and proline content; while Na~ and CI- content, MDA content were decreased. The enhancement of root activity and root physiological functions were more marked in root application and leaf/root application treatments than in leaf/root application treatment. [Conclu- sion] Three application modes of brassinosteroid all could alleviate the NaCI injuries on cotton, but root application and root/leaf application modes of brassinosteroid for cotton under NaCI stress are superior to the leaf application.展开更多
