Abstract
Salt stress inhibited the growth of maize. B46 and NC236 were chosen as materials and NaCl concentrations (0, 55, 110, 165, and 220 mmol L) were set. We found the activities of SOD, POD, CAT, APX, GR, MDHAR, and DHAR decreased under NaCl stress. Compared with NC236, the contents of AsA and GSH, AsA/DHA and GSH/GSSG of B46 decreased. The content of O, HO, MDA, and EL of B46 increased. The contents of NO and NO decreased, while the content of NH increased under high NaCl concentration. The activities of NR and NiR decreased, while the activities of GS and GOGAT increased first and then decreased. For B46 and NC236, the maximum of NADH-GDH and NAD-GDH appeared at 165 and 110 mmol L NaCl concentration, respectively. Compared with B46, and the GOT and GPT activities of NC236 increased first and then decreased. With the increase of NaCl concentration, the contents of proline, soluble protein, and soluble sugar were increased. The Na content of B46 and NC236 increased, and the K content and K/Na decreased. Compared with NC236, B46 had higher IAA content in leaf, higher Z + ZR content in leaf and root, and lower ABA content in leaf and root.
