Abelmoschus esculentus salt tolerance material screening and analysis of salt tolerance during germination, southwest agricultural report, 2014,27 (2): 788-792 ], abelmoschus esculentus seed material was selected from 50 full seeds, sterilized 5min with 5% hypochlorous acid solution, washed 3 times with distilled water, soaked in clear water and 0.1mmol/L CdCl 2 solution at room temperature for 24 hours, respectively, and then placed in a transparent plastic fresh-keeping box with two layers of filter paper having an inner diameter of 12 cm, and then subjected to treatments of different concentrations (0, 1, 10 and 100 mmol/L) of trehalose, respectively, including (i) adding 0, 1, 10 and 100 mmol/L of trehalose with distilled water under normal conditions, (ii) adding 0, 1, 10 and 100 mmol/L of trehalose under conditions of 0.1mmol/L CdCl 2, respectively. Each treatment was repeated six times. The fresh-keeping box is placed in a climatic chamber for germination, the white/night temperature is 28 ℃ per 25 ℃, the daytime/black day is 12 h, and the humidity is 60% +/-1%. And taking the radicle length of 0.2 mm as a seed germination mark, and counting the germination number of the seeds on the 5 th day.

Physiological and biochemical mechanisms of improving salt and drought tolerance in okra plants based on applied attapulgite clay. Advances in Biochemistry, 2022, 10:1-10】, abelmoschus manihot seedlings of Taiwan were transplanted into plastic pots (19 cm in diameter) containing a mixture of turf, humus and vermiculite (1:1:1, v/v/v) in the greenhouse. All seedlings were thoroughly watered with half Hoagland solution for 4 weeks until the seedlings developed new leaves. Subsequently, cdCl 2 stress and trehalose treatments were performed, including (i) normally, irrigation with fresh water every pot of okra seedling plants, once every 2 days for 4 weeks, while spraying aqueous solutions containing 0, 1, 10 and 100 mmol/L of trehalose every day, 3 times per day. (ii) CdCl 2 stress treatment, irrigation with 100ml of 0.1 mmol/L CdCl 2 solution was performed on each pot of okra seedling plants once every 2 days for 4 weeks, while spraying aqueous solutions containing 0, 1, 10 and 100 mmol/L trehalose every day, 3 times a day.
The result shows that the result of the 0.1 mmol/L CdCl 2 stress potting experiment shows that, as shown in FIG. 2, the okra seedling plants treated by exogenous trehalose grow well and have improved resistance, the fresh weight and dry weight of the okra seedlings treated by the exogenous trehalose are obviously higher than those of the okra seedlings treated by the exogenous trehalose, which are respectively 62%, 123%, 37% and 213%, 368% and 188% higher than those of the okra seedlings treated by the exogenous trehalose, and the okra seedlings treated by the exogenous trehalose are respectively improved by 0. mmol/L compared with those of the okra seedlings treated by the exogenous trehalose, wherein the okra seedling plants treated by the exogenous trehalose have the best effect, and the okra seedling treated by the exogenous trehalose expresses very strong CdCl 2 stress resistance.

Trehalose is a safe and reliable natural sugar, is non-reducing sugar formed by two glucose molecules with 1, 1-glycosidic bond, is disaccharide with the most stable property in sugar, has low content in plant body, and can stabilize the structure and function of protein by regulating the content of trehalose in plant under adverse conditions. Research shows that trehalose is a penetration regulating substance, not only can protect an antioxidant enzyme system and subcellular structures, but also can mediate penetration regulation and activate ROS clearance, and can relieve damage to plants caused by stress.

Under normal conditions, plants have very low free proline content, but when subjected to salt, drought and other stresses, free amino acids accumulate in large quantities, and the accumulation index is related to stress resistance of the plants. Thus, proline can be used as a biochemical indicator of stress resistance in plants.

7. Determination of H 2O2 content
H 2O2 accumulates in plants under stress or in senescence due to enhanced in vivo active oxygen metabolism. H 2O2 can oxidize biomacromolecules such as nucleic acids, proteins and the like in cells directly or indirectly, and damage cell membranes, thereby accelerating aging and disintegration of cells. Thus, the higher the content of H 2O2, the greater the extent to which the plant suffers from stress injury.
