The toxicity differences of Cu^2＋ and Cd^2＋ to tomato seedlings and the corresponding differences between two tomato cultivars were observed through the stress trial with the ahove two heavy metal ions, The resubs showed that low concentration of Cu^2＋ and Cd^2＋ could promote the growth and could enhance the POD activity of tomato seedlings, while high concentratiun Cu^2＋ and Cd^2＋ could inhibit seedling growth and POD activity of tomato seedlings. Cd^2＋ functioned more obviously than that of Cu^2＋ , two tomato cultivars also presented difference in response to heavy metal stress.展开更多

[Method] The activities of SOD and POD were determined with lactoflavine-NBT method and guaiacol-colorimetry as- say, respectively. The activities of CAT, APX,PAL and C4H were determined with ultraviolet spectrophotometry. The contents of secondary metabolites were detected by High-performance Liquid Chromatography （HPLC）. [Result] The results indicate that the soluble sugar content decreased during the first 5 days and then increased when the cotyledons formed. The contents of PAL, C4H and CHS continuously in- creased at different stages during the seed germination process. The secondary metabolites also showed the consistent variation trend. In addition, the contents of secondary metabolites had significant positive correlation with the key enzyme activi- ty. [Conclusion] The formation of secondary metabolites is significantly positively cor- related with the key enzyme during the seed germination process. Therefore, the key enzyme activity can be enhanced by adopting appropriate measures to improve the secondary metabolites, thereby obtaining high-quality medicinal materials.展开更多
