Effect of ZnPPIX on HO-1 activity, TBARS levels, ion leakage, and chlorophyll content in soybean leaves subjected to salt stress.
| Treatment | HO-1 (U mg−1 protein) | TBARS (nmol g−1 FW) | Relative ion leakage (%) | Chlorophyll (a+b) (mg g−1 FW) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Control | 0,135 ± 0.031(a) | 40.17 ± 1.33(a) | 100 ± 6(a) | 3.35 ± 0.40(a) |
| 100 mM NaCl | 1,210 ± 0.223(b) | 49.08 ± 1.50(b) | 153 ± 10(b) | 2.54 ± 0.30(b) |
| ZnPPIX | 0.059 ± 0.004(c) | 38.23 ± 2.10(a) | 103 ± 13(a) | 3.01 ± 0.27(a) |
| ZnPPIX + 100 mM NaCl | 0.063 ± 0.006(c) | 59.76 ± 4.11(c) | 230 ± 15(c) | 1.41 ± 0.23(c) |
Data are mean values of four independent experiments ± SD. Different letters within columns indicate significant differences (P < .05) according to Tukey's multiple range test.
