Abstract:

The low-temperature environment was simulated in artificial climate chamber at 0 ℃,-15 ℃,-20 ℃,-25 ℃ and-30 ℃. The stems of 21 one-year old peach cultivars were selected. The differences in relative conductivity,tissue browning rate,activity of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase(PAL)and contents of malondialdehyde(MDA),free proline(Pro)and soluble sugar(SS)were analyzed. The cold resistance and physiological indexes of different peach cultivars were evaluated by the membership function method and principal component analysis. The results indicated that the relative conductivity,tissue browning rate,activity of PAL,contents of MDA and Pro in stems of 21 peach cultivars increased with the decrease of temperature,while SS content increased firstly and then decreased. Compared with the control,relative conductivity and activity of PAL in trunks of Jinhuangjin,21 Century and Zhonghua Shoutao increased greatly,contents of Pro in trunks of Hangongzhu,Donghe 1 and Hunchun increased greatly. The cold resistance of 21 cultivars were in the decreasing order of Donghe 1,Hunchun,Hangongzhu,Beijing Wanmi,Jinbao,Qiuyue,Qiuyan,Xiahui 6,Qiuyi,Cuibao,Zhongyou 8,Chunxue,Zhongyou 21,Xiufeng,Okubo,Yantehong,Jinhuangjin,Zhongyoupan 7,Jinao,21 Century,Zhonghua Shoutao. According to the comprehensive evaluation by membership function method,the classification of cold resistance type(grade)was consistent with the semi-lethal temperature(LT50)and the field survey results. The main indexes that affect the cold resistance of peach trees at the seedling stage are xylem thickness,xylem ratio,tissue browning rate,relative conductivity,activity of PAL and contents of MDA,free Pro and SS,and the differences(content)of these indexes can be used as important indexes to evaluate the cold resistance.
