Alleviation of Field Low-Temperature Stress in Winter Wheat by Exogenous Application of Salicylic Acid
2021
Overview
Low temperature in later spring severely limits plant growth and causes considerable yield loss in wheat. In this study, the impacts of exogenous salicylic acid (SA) on plant growth, grain yield and key physiological parameters of wheat plants were investigated under field low-temperature conditions using a field air temperature control system (FATC). The results showed that low-temperature stress significantly decreased leaf net photosynthetic rate, plant height and biomass production of wheat plants at the jointing stage, resulting in a reduction in grain yield. Moreover, the growth period of wheat plants was prolonged by low-temperature stress. However, SA-treated plants significantly improved the photochemical efficiency of photosystem II, accumulation of osmo-protectants, activities of enzymatic antioxidants, and pool of non-enzymatic low molecular substances compared with non-SA-treated plants under low-temperature stress. Pretreatment with SA effectively alleviated low-temperature-induced reduction in leaf net photosynthetic rate, plant height, biomass production and grain yield as well as prolonging of growth period of wheat plants. However, SA-treated plants had no significant effects on the expression levels of cold-responsive genes compared with non-SA-treated plants under low-temperature stress. Our results demonstrated that exogenous application of SA is an appropriate strategy for wheat to resist late spring low-temperature stress under field conditions.
