摘要: Lead (Pb) is a highly toxic metal that damages normal plant metabolism and often results in reduced crop growth and yield. To measure whether or not ultrasonic seed (US) treatment alleviates Pb stress in rice, the seeds of two rice cultivars, i.e., Guangyan1 and Huahang31, were exposed to 30min of ultrasonic vibration and then the seedlings were transplanted to Pb-contaminated soil. Results revealed that the Pb contents in roots, stems, leaves, panicles (at heading), and brown rice (at maturity) were lower in US treatment than control (CK; without US treatment); the trend for accumulation of Pb in different plant parts was recorded as: root ? stems ? leaves ? panicles ? brown rice in both rice cultivars. Overall, the Pb contents in the brown rice of Huahang31 were higher than those in Guangyan1. Moreover, the contents of proline and soluble protein as well as the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) were significantly higher while the malondialdehyde (MDA) contents were significantly reduced in US treatment compared to CK. The effective panicle number, seed set percentage, grains per panicle, 1000-grain weight, and grain yield were increased by 8.9%, 5.3%, 6.8%, 4.4%, and 26.6% in Guangyan1 and 3.2%, 5.7%, 5.7%, 5.0%, and 24.2% in Huahang31, respectively in US treatment compared to CK. Hence, seed treatment with ultrasonic waves could improve rice performance and reduce brown rice Pb accumulation under Pb-polluted soils.
