The results showed that: The correlation between the content of Cu^2+ in medium and the germination and growth of the seedlings is significant (P〈0.01). The effect of Cu^2+ to the germination, plant height, fresh weight, dried weight and the chlorophyll mount of the wheat seedling was stimulated under lower concentration of Cu^2+ and was inhibited under higher concentration. With the increase of the Cu^2+ concentration in the culture solution, the germination and growth of the seedlings was inhibited. The perfect positive correlation between the Cu^2+ content in the plant and that in the culture solution was noted. Most of Cu^2+ was concentrated in the root, and only a small amount was migrated to the aerial part of the wheat seedling. The sensitivity of each index to the Cu^2+ concentration was ranked as follows: the Cu^2+ content in the plant〉chlorophyll-a〉the ratio of chlorophyll-a to chlorophyll-b〉total chlorophyll〉plant height 〉germination〉fresh weight〉root elongation〉 chlorophyll-b 〉dried weight. The Cu^2+ content in the wheat plant was the most sensitive index to the Cu^2+ concentration in the culture solution.展开更多
