After 5 d of freezing acclimation at -3 ℃, the LT50 of P. tomentosa has decreased from -6.2 ℃ in control cuttings to -14.3 ℃ in freezing acclimated ones, and the increase of G6PDH activity was observed in freezing acclimated cuttings as compared with control ones. Whereas, when P. suaveolens was freezing acclimated at -20℃ for 5 d, the LT50 has decreased from -27.1℃ in control cuttings to -43.5 ℃ in freezing acclimated ones, and the activity of G6PDH increased considerably. In addition, the increase of LT50 and the decrease of G6PDH activity resulting from 2 d of deacclimation at 25 ℃ were found in two kinds of freezing acclimated cuttings. It is concluded that the increase in the activity of G6PDH may associate with the inherited freezing resistance of species and the enhancement of freezing resistance of cuttings, and may play an important role in the antifreeze process under freezing temperature, which would provide the basis for the study on the molecular mechanism of freezing resistance in P. suaveolens and the cloning of gene associated with freezing resistance.展开更多
