      cucumber seedlings under NO3- stress].
PG  - 3009-14
AB  - In this study, cucumber seedlings were cultivated in nutrient solution added with 
      different concentration (0.05, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3 mmol x L(-1)) sodium 
      nitroprusside (SNP) as nitric oxide (NO) donor to study the effects of exogenous 
      NO on the growth of cucumber seedlings and the activities of antioxidant enzymes 
      in cucumber leaves under NO3- stress. Under the stress of 140 mmol x L(-1) NO3-, 
      treating with 0.1 mmol x L(-1) of SNP for 1 d or 7 d increased the leaf soluble 
      protein content and superoxidase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and ascorbic acid 
      peroxidase (APX) activities, and decreased the leaf malondialdehyde (MDA) content 
      significantly, suggesting that exogenous NO could enhance the capacity of 
      cucumber seedlings in scavenging active oxygen species, protect the seedlings 
      from the peroxidation of membrane lipids, and promote the seedlings growth and 
      increase their resistance to high concentration NO3- stress. After the cucumber 
      seedlings grew in 0.3 mmol x L(-1) of SNP for 7 d, the activities of leaf SOD, 
      POD, and CAT decreased, and the MDA content increased, resulting in the injury of 
      cucumber seedlings. It was indicated that certain concentration (0.1-0.2 mmol x 
      L(-1)) exogenous NO could alleviate the NO3- stress to cucumber seedlings.
