摘要: Brassinosteroids (BRs), an important class of plant steroidal hormones, play a significant role in the amelioration of various biotic and abiotic stresses. 24-epibrassinolide (EBR), an active brassinosteroid, was applied exogenously in different concentrations to characterize a role of BRs in tolerance of melon (Cucumis melo L.) to high temperature (HT) stress and to investigate photosynthetic performance of HT-stressed, Honglvzaocui (HT-tolerant) and Baiyuxiang (HTsensitive), melon variety. Under HT, Honglvzaocui showed higher biomass accumulation and a lower index of heat injury compared with the Baiyuxiang. The exogenous application of 1.0 mg L-1 EBR, the most effective concentration, alleviated dramatically the growth suppression caused by HT in both ecotypes. Similarly, EBR pretreatment of HTstressed plants attenuated the decrease in relative chlorophyll content, net photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, stomatal limitation, and water-use efficiency (WUE), as well as the maximal quantum yield of PSII photochemistry (F-v/F-m), the efficiency of excitation capture of open PSII center, the effective quantum yield of PSII photochemistry (I broken vertical bar(PSII)), photochemical quenching coefficient, and the photon activity distribution coefficients of PSI (alpha). EBR pretreatment further inhibited the increase in intracellular CO2 concentration, leaf transpiration rate, minimal fluorescence of dark-adapted state, nonphotochemical quenching, thermal dissipation, and photon activity distribution coefficients of PSII. Results obtained here demonstrated that EBR could alleviate the detrimental effects of HT on the plant growth by improving photosynthesis in leaves, mainly reflected as up-regulation of photosynthetic pigment contents and photochemical activity associated with PSI.
