“…Earlier experiments support the positive correlation between higher activities of antioxidant enzymes and freezing tolerance (Zhang et al, 2011;Kishimoto et al, 2014). The magnitude of oxidative damage is usually measured by MDA (an end product of membrane lipid peroxidation), and Evans dye absorption, two markers for the ROSmediated cell membrane damage (Liu et al, 2009).…”

Freezing stress limits photosynthesis and growth of plants. This may be attributed to the enhancement of freezingassociated oxidative damage. In this study, we followed precisely changes in the extent of lipid peroxidation and oxidative damage in leaves of pistachio (Pistacia vera 'Ahmadaghaii') plants exposed to foliar-applied silicon (Si) under freezing stress. The foliar-applied Si decreased significantly damaging effects of cold on relative water content (RWC), accompanied by an increase in shoot fresh mass (SFM). In addition, pre-Si treatment caused a significant reduction of the leaf area lost by freezing. There was a remarkable increase in phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) activity during recovery. Since leaf phenolic content was not affected by supplementary Si, the possibility that exogenously applied Si directly influences the activity of PAL seems thin. In the present work, freezing stress caused great membrane damage, as assessed by lipid peroxidation, but Si application significantly reduced the membrane damage because of an efficient scavenging by superoxide dismutase (SOD) and peroxidase (POD). Under freezing, despite the increasing POD activity, Si-supplied plants accumulated the highest levels of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) may act as a signal for recovery ability from freezing injury. A positive correlation was found between the concentration of malondialdehyde (MDA) and the percentage of necrotic leaf area. This study suggests that the possible mechanisms for Si enhanced freezing resistance may be attributed to the higher antioxidant defense activity and lower lipid peroxidation through leaf water retention, in addition to its role as a mere physical barrier.Key words: antioxidant enzymes, cold stress, Evans dye, hydrogen peroxide, phenylalanine ammonialyase, Pistacia vera, malondialdehyde, relative water content IZVLEČEK TRETIRANJE LISTOV PISTACIJE (Pistacia vera 'Ahmadaghaii') S SILICIJEM POVEČA NJIHOVO ANTIOKSIDATIVNO SPOSOBNOST V MRAZNEM STRESUMrazni stres omejuje fotosintezo in rast rastlin, kar lahko pripišemo povečanju oksidativnih poškodb zaradi zmrzovanja.

Foliarna uporaba silicija je značilno zmanjšala učinke mraza na ravni relativne vsebnosti vode (RWC), kar je povzročilo povečanje sveže mase poganjkov (SFM). Dodatno je predtretiranje s Si povzročilo značilno zmanjšanje izgube listne površine zaradi zmrzovana. Med okrevanjem po mraznem stresu je bila opazno povečana aktivnost fenilalanin amonik-liaze (PAL). Zaradi nespremenjene vsebnosti fenolov v listih po aplikaciji Si je maloverjetno, da bi foliarno dodani Si neposredno vplival na aktivnost PAL. Mrazni stres je povzročil velike poškodbe membran, ki so bile ocenjene s peroksidacijo lipidov, a jih je uporaba Si značilno zmanjšala zaradi učinkovitega antioksidativnega delovanja superoksid dismutaze (SOD) in peroksidaze (POD).

“…CAT can involve the removal of H 2 O 2 in the cell (Patykowski and Urbanek, 2003;Mutlu et al 2009a). Certain researchers have suggested that the stress-tolerant genotypes have a better radical scavenging ability (Zhang et al 2011a). It has been shown that the cold treatment increases the CAT activity in cold-tolerant cultivars and decreases it in salt-sensitive plants day by day.…”

In this work, the time-dependent effect of exogenous salicylic acid (SA) applied before cold stress was investigated on the regulation of antioxidative respond mechanisms in two barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) cultivars (Akhisar and Tokak) differed in cold tolerance. SA (0.1 mM) was applied to 7-days old barley seedlings growing under control conditions (20/18°C). After this application, the seedlings were transferred to cold conditions (7/5°C) at different times (7, 14, 21 and 28 days) for 3 days. Then, the contents of malondialdehyde (MDA), hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) and the activities of antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and peroxidase (POX) were determined in the leaves (control, cold and SA + cold) from the seedlings harvested at 10, 17, 24 and 31 days. Moreover, the effect of cold stress was evaluated on the endogenous SA level at the both cultivars by comparing to control plants. The MDA content increased in the cold treatment while it decreased in the SA treatment at all the days studied at the both cultivars. The SA + cold treatment could have a variable effect on H 2 O 2 content at the tolerant barley (Tokak) while decreased its content at the sensitive cultivar (Akhisar). The SA + cold treatment could increase the activities of POX and SOD at both cultivars, but it increased the CAT activity at the tolerant cultivar while decreased at the sensitive cultivar. In addition, the content of endogenous SA was decreased by cold stress at all the days studied at the barley cultivars as compared to control plants. The results show that the SA treatment could be effective on the regulation of the parameters studied at cold conditions until 31 days after SA application, and the importance of exogenous SA treatment before cold stress. It was concluded that exogenous and endogenous SA could play an ameliorating role on cold tolerance by regulating reactive oxygen species and the activities of antioxidative enzymes in both cold-sensitive and cold-tolerant cultivars of barley.

“…Cold stress includes chilling (< 20 °C) and/or freezing (<0 °C) temperatures, and negatively affects the growth and development of plants (Waśkiewicz et al, 2014). Exposure to cold increases the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) (Zhang et al, 2011), resulting in cytotoxic conditions that affects plant metabolism by stimulating oxidative damage to lipid, proteins, and nucleic acid (Suzuki et al, 2012).…”

Low temperature is one of the major adverse climatic factors that suppress plant growth and sustainable agricultural development. In these climate conditions, silicon (Si) can mitigate various abiotic stresses including low temperature. In this study, the roles of foliar-applied silicon (10 mM potassium metasilicate) in enhancing tolerance to chilling stress were investigated in maize (Zea mays 'Fajr') plants. The low temperature stress caused significant reduction of plant growth and relative water content; however, Si ameliorated these effects. Si supply in maize exhibited a significantly positive effect on accumulation of free amino acids, and reduced the necrotic leaf area. The decrease in maximum quantum yield of PSII (F v /F m ) was reversible during recovery, but not in the non-Si-treated leaves. This can be explained by enhancement of protective pigments; carotenoid and anthocyanin leading to the protection of PSII from damage. Additionally, analysis of OJIP transients revealed that Si reduced cold damaging effect on performance index (PI abs ) and F v /F m through improvement of excitation energy trapping (TR 0 /CS) and electron transport (ET 0 /CS) per excited crosssection of leaf. The malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration, which was significantly increased under chilling stress, was decreased by Si. The reduced glutathione and ascorbate concentrations were higher in Si-treated plants as compared to those without application of Si under chilling stress. These results indicated that Si could enhance the chilling stress tolerance of maize plants through improving the biomass accumulation, maintaining a high level of glutathione, ascorbic acid, protein, protective pigments, and enhancing the photochemical reactions. This study also suggests that the foliar-applied Si increases recovery ability from chilling injury. Nizka temperatura je eden izmed glavnih neugodnih klimatskih dejavnikov, ki zavira rast rastlin in trajnostni razvoj kmetijstva.V takšnih klimatskih razmerah lahko silicij oblaži abiotski stress vključno z učinki nizke temperature. V tej raziskavi je bila preučevana vloga foliarnega dodajanja Si (10 mM kalijevega metasilikata) pri povečevanju odpornosti koruze (Zea mays 'Fajr') na hladni stres. Stres zaradi nizkih temperature je značilno zmanjšal rast in vsebnost vode v rastlinah, kar je dodajanje Si oblažilo. Dodatek silicija je sprožil v koruzi značilne pozitivne učinke v kopičenju prostih amino kislin in v zmanjšanju nekrotičnosti listov. Zmanjšanje v fotokemični učinkovitosti PS II (F v /F m ) je bilo povratno med okrevanjem, vendar ne pri rastlinah, ki niso bile tretirane s silicijem. To bi lahko razložili s povečanjem vsebnosti zaščitnih pigmentov karotenoidov in antocianinov, kar vodi v zaščito PSII pred poškodbami. Dodatno so analize prehodne fluorescence klorofila a (OJIP) odkrile, da je dodatek Si zmanjšal učinek poškodb zaradi hlada na fotosintetski elektronski transport (PI abs in F v /F m ) preko boljšega prestrezanja ekscitacijske energije (TR 0 /CS) in boljšega elektronskeg...
