Description

Method for improving drought resistance of marigold by using melatonin
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of herbaceous plant cultivation, and particularly relates to a method for improving drought resistance of marigold by using melatonin.
Background
At present, marigold is an annual herb plant of marigold of the family Compositae and has important ornamental and economic values. In arid and water-deficient areas, flower and sea landscapes with high ornamental value and effect are rarely available, and abiotic stresses such as drought or water deficiency and the like are the most important factors influencing the growth, production and various physiological processes of plants, so that the improvement of the drought resistance of flowers, flowers and sea becomes very important. Marigold has bright color, easy cultivation and management, strong adaptability and low requirement on soil, and can be used as a stress research material. In recent years, plant drought stress gradually enters the research field of more scholars, and researches show that when soil drought reaches a certain degree, the physiological functions of plants are seriously damaged, and the plants sense the drought through the soil to cause physiological changes. Drought breaks the material metabolism balance in the plant body, so that cells lose water and wither, the membrane permeability is increased, the respiratory disturbance causes stomata to close, and the photosynthesis is weakened. At present, most of researches on marigold are in aspects of pigment extraction, cultivation technology, industrial development and bacteriostasis, the researches on the drought stress are less, and the researches on the drought stress of melatonin are not available.
Melatonin is a hormone substance capable of lightening skin pigment, which is synthesized in pineal gland by taking tryptophan as a substrate, has a chemical name of N-acetyl and 5-methoxytryptamine, exists in plant cell mitochondria, and plays a positive role in regulating the growth and development of plants and coping with stress. Melatonin is also a fat soluble compound, twice as active as vitamin E, and is considered to be the most effective lipophilic antioxidant. Plum love and the like treat the purple perilla seedlings through a PEG-6000 simulated stress environment, and the fact that the growth of the purple perilla seedlings is remarkably inhibited by water stress is found, and the length-width ratio of leaves under the stress can be increased by exogenous melatonin. Zhang Na found that chlorophyll was degraded by water stress, and treatment with melatonin maintained the chloroplast intact and relieved the chlorophyll content. The fact that the leaf spraying of melatonin by the plum lin and the like shows that the drought stress can cause the damage of oxidation stress and cell membranes, so that the content of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) is increased, and the melatonin can improve the activity of the antioxidant enzyme of the tomato leaves and is effectively relieved. Wu Yan and the like find that exogenous melatonin can promote the accumulation of leaf proline, soluble protein and soluble sugar content of Chuzhou chrysanthemum when researching Chuzhou chrysanthemum, and maintain the normal function of cells by improving osmotic regulatory substances.
Through the above analysis, the problems and defects of the prior art are as follows: in the prior art, researches on marigold are mostly carried out in the aspects of pigment extraction, cultivation technology, industrial development and bacteriostatic action, the researches on the aspect of drought stress are less, and the researches on the aspect of drought stress of melatonin are not carried out.
The significance of solving the problems and the defects is as follows: the invention detects physiological and biochemical changes of marigold under drought stress under the treatment of different concentrations of melatonin by a method of spraying the melatonin on marigold leaves, and has important reference values for improving the drought resistance of marigold and applying the melatonin to compositae plants.

2 results and analysis
2.1 Effect of melatonin on morphological indices of marigold under drought stress
As can be seen from Table 2, drought stress had different effects on plant height, stem thickness and plant breadth compared to the CK in the control group, and M0 was reduced by 31.78%, 16.53%, 30.07%, and 35.12%, 16.35%, and 29.72% compared to CK at days 10 and 15. The treatment of M100 at 10 days is improved by 2.74%, 5.79% and 9.30% compared with that of M0; compared with M0, the treatment of M200 is improved by 1.18%, 10.38% and 10.02%; compared with M0, the treatment of M300 is improved by 5.94%, 0.97% and 1.36%. The treatment of M100 at 15 days is improved by 3.67%, 0.82% and 2.50% compared with that of M0; compared with M0, the treatment of M200 is improved by 1.86%, 13.99% and 7.11%; compared with M0, the treatment of M300 is improved by 14.30%, 7.61% and 6.71%.

Figure BDA0003374031540000091
Note: different lower case letters in the same column indicate significant difference (P < 0.05).
2.2 Effect of melatonin on Total Tagetes chlorophyll under drought stress
As shown in fig. 2, as the drought time increases, the content of the CK chlorophyll gradually increases, while M0 gradually decreases after increasing, and is lower than that of CK, and compared with CK, the content of the marigold chlorophyll at 5 th day, 10 th day and 15 th day is respectively reduced by 17.37%, 20.25% and 39.36%, and the change of the content of the marigold chlorophyll under the drought stress has significant difference. The treatment of M100 is improved by 22.74 percent, 12.39 percent and 26.85 percent compared with that of M0; the treatment of M200 is improved by 12.52%, 11.32% and 28.19% compared with that of M0; the treatment of M300 on days 5 and 10 increased 11.04%, 0.3%, 42.72% on day 20 and 9.5% decrease in M300 on day 15 compared to M0. Therefore, the effect of M100 and M200 on the increase of the total chlorophyll amount is not much different and is higher than that of M300, i.e. the melatonin treatment effect M100 is greater than that of M200 and greater than that of M300.
2.3 Effect of melatonin on antioxidant enzymes of Tagetes erecta under drought stress
As can be seen from fig. 3(a) and 3(b), as the drought time increases, the SOD values decreased from day 5 to day 10, and both SOD and POD showed a tendency of increasing before decreasing after day 10. Compared with CK, SOD and POD values of marigold under drought stress are respectively increased by 3.45%, 47.26%, 21.84%, 3.19% and 41.37%, 3.51%, 14.19% and 44.85%, and obviously, the drought stress can improve the activity of antioxidant enzyme of marigold. Compared with drought stress M0, the SOD and POD under the treatment of three melatonin concentrations reach peak values at day 15, which are 261.09U/gFW, 385.36U/gFW, 269.55U/gFW and 1736U/(g-min), 1948U/(g-min), 1612U/(g-min), wherein the value of the M200 treatment is the highest, and the treatment effect M200, M100 and M300 are higher than that of the stress treatment.
2.4 Effect of melatonin on the content of soluble sugar and soluble protein in marigold under drought stress
As can be seen from FIGS. 4(a) and 4(b), marigold showed a tendency of decreasing soluble sugar content from day 5 to day 10, and from day 10 onward, the soluble sugar content showed a tendency of increasing before decreasing, as did the soluble protein content. The soluble sugar content and the soluble protein content under drought stress were increased by 0.27-fold, 0.85-fold, 1.18-fold, and 0.91-fold on days 10 and 15, respectively, as compared to the control group CK. Compared with drought stress M0, the content of soluble sugar and soluble protein in melatonin treated product is increased and reaches peak value at 15 days, wherein the peak value of M200 treatment is 31.79% and 15.42ug/g, and the treatment effect is M200> M100> M300. The decrease in soluble protein content by day 20 with melatonin treatment was slightly lower than M0, but higher than CK.
2.5 Effect of melatonin on the content of free proline in Tagetes erecta and the relative conductivity of leaves under drought stress
As can be seen from fig. 5(a) and 5(b), the content of free proline showed a significantly increasing trend, and the relative conductivity showed a first-rising and second-falling trend. With the increase of drought stress time, the content of free proline is the highest at 20 days, and compared with CK, the content of free proline in the fertilizer is increased by 22.01 percent by M0 treatment; the relative conductivity reached its highest at day 10, an increase of 28.66% compared to CK for the M0 treatment. Compared with drought stress M0, the three melatonin concentration treatments all increased the content of free proline and decreased the relative conductivity, with the highest content of free proline at day 20 at M200 treatment of 764.19. mu.g/gFW and the lowest relative conductivity of 31.34%, and the lowest relative conductivity at day 5 at M100 treatment of 30.97%, but with longer stress times, the relative conductivity at M100 treatment was higher than the other two concentrations, with the effect of treatment being M200> M300> M100.
3 the analysis is as follows:
water is a source of all living matters, and plants can be subjected to various adversity stresses under natural environmental conditions. Drought stress of plants is mainly due to water loss, and thus has significant influence on growth and development of plants and biomass formation, wherein morphological characteristics belong to the most intuitive changes. The test takes marigold in a growth period as a material, uses potted plant water control to explore drought stress, analyzes the physiological change of marigold under the treatment of different concentrations of melatonin, and compared with the marigold which grows normally, the drought stress reduces the plant height, the stem thickness and the plant width, wherein the influence on the stem thickness is small, which indicates that the plant height and the plant width are more sensitive to the growth after normal watering, and the result is consistent with the research result of Zhongnan. Therefore, the growth of the marigold can be obviously inhibited by drought stress, and the plant height and the plant breadth of the marigold under the drought stress can be obviously improved by melatonin treatment, so that the effect of relieving the drought stress is achieved.
Chlorophyll is the most basic photosynthetic pigment in plants, and the content of chlorophyll in turn affects the photosynthetic capacity of plants. The general trend of the total chlorophyll content is increased and then reduced after melatonin is applied in the test, the total chlorophyll content is reduced after 10 days probably because excessive Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) are generated in plants under drought stress, the affinity of the reactive oxygen species to chlorophyll is strong, the chloroplast structure is damaged, in addition, the reduction of the chlorophyll content causes the photosynthetic capacity to be weakened, and the reduction of the leaf area can be related to the research result of the field control nation in marigold drought resistance evaluation. The chlorophyll content of the melatonin treated by 100 mu mol/L and 200 mu mol/L is obviously improved compared with that of M0, and the treatment effects of the two are not obvious. The results show that the drought stress can inhibit the synthesis of chlorophyll, and 100 mu mol/L and 200 mu mol/L of melatonin can obviously improve the chlorophyll content of marigold under the drought stress.
The response of the cell membrane to the stress is the most sensitive, when the stress occurs, the cell membrane firstly acts on the plasma membrane to cause dehydration of protoplasm, so that the permeability of the membrane is increased, active oxygen can be rapidly accumulated in a plant body, the cell membrane structure of the plant is damaged, and the normal metabolic physiology of the plant is interfered. Melatonin is used as an electron donor and can directly react with active oxygen in animals and plants, so that the content of the active oxygen in the bodies is kept at a low level. The plant can remove excessive oxygen free radicals through an antioxidase system, so that cells are prevented from being damaged by oxidation. In this test, SOD tended to decline before day 10 with prolonged drought, probably because marigold did not adapt to stress conditions soon after the onset of stress, which disturbed the function of the enzyme system on the membrane and interfered with normal metabolism of the cells. After 10 days, SOD and POD both show ascending and descending trends, marigold probably regulates the in vivo antioxidant enzyme system to decompose oxygen free radicals in the early stage, when the stress time reaches a certain limit, a large amount of active oxygen is generated and accumulated in the plant body, so that the metabolism in cells is seriously damaged, and the quantity of the antioxidant enzyme is limited, so the value is reduced. Compared with drought stress M0, the SOD and POD are increased under three melatonin concentrations, wherein the highest value is obtained under 200 μmol/L melatonin treatment, and the melatonin can improve antioxidase activity and maintain the balance of active oxygen in cells to adapt to stress environment.
The plant can deal with adverse environment by regulating protective enzyme and osmotic substance in vivo under drought stress, and the soluble sugar and soluble protein can be used as osmotic regulating substance of plant to maintain osmotic balance of plant cell. Under drought stress, the biological membrane is affected to cause membrane lipid peroxidation, the membrane permeability is improved, the electrolyte permeability is increased, and the proline content and the relative conductivity can be used as the basis for judging the damage degree of the cell membrane permeability. In normal leaves, oxidation degradation enzyme in mitochondria induces proline oxidation, and the proline content is reduced; when plants are stressed by drought, mitochondria are broken and proline oxidation is hindered, so that the content is increased. Proline may have both an adaptive significance and may be indicative of impaired cell structure and function in view of its way to accumulate under drought conditions. In the test, the content of soluble sugar before 10 days showed a tendency of decreasing, probably because the plants of marigold were too short and too small to have a weak photosynthetic capacity, the respiration and metabolism were vigorous, and the organic matter consumption was greater than the accumulation. The decrease of the content of soluble sugar and soluble protein under the melatonin treatment at the 20 th day is large, probably because the longer stress time seriously damages the permeability of the membrane in the growth period of marigold and influences the transportation and metabolism of substances. Research results show that the relative conductivity, the content of free proline, soluble sugar and soluble protein of plants under drought stress are obviously increased, and after melatonin with different concentrations is sprayed, the content of free proline, soluble sugar and soluble protein is increased, and the relative conductivity is reduced, which is consistent with the research results of plum peak and the like in ryegrass leaves. Therefore, melatonin with proper concentration can effectively promote the regulation of substances permeating marigold under drought stress and relieve the damage to the permeability of cell membranes. In conclusion, drought stress seriously affects physiological and biochemical changes of marigold, and the treatment of melatonin can improve the capacity of marigold to cope with the drought stress.
The marigold is inhibited from growing under drought stress, the chlorophyll content is reduced, the antioxidant enzyme activity, the soluble sugar, the soluble protein, the free proline content and the relative conductivity are all increased. Under the condition of relatively drought stress, the melatonin has a relieving effect on the drought stress of marigold, can improve the activity of antioxidant enzyme, regulate the accumulation of osmotic substances and enhance the drought resistance of marigold, wherein the treatment effect of 200 mu mol/L melatonin concentration is optimal.
The above description is only for the purpose of illustrating the present invention and the appended claims are not to be construed as limiting the scope of the invention, which is intended to cover all modifications, equivalents and improvements that are within the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
