Abstract
The freeze–thaw and allelopathy from alien giant ragweed (Ambrosia trifida L.) and artemisinin have led to a serious stress to plants, influencing the agricultural quality and crop yield in north-east China. Yet, little is known how allelopathy affect plants under the freeze–thaw process. In this study, the characteristics in winter rye (Secale cereale L.) seedlings were investigated by laboratory simulation. The results showed that during the freezing process, application of artemisinin and A. trifida extract significantly increased the soluble protein content and accelerated lipid peroxidation, while they significantly inhibited antioxidant enzymes, photosynthesis and respiration (P < 0.05). During the thawing process, the freezing pressure decreased, and activities of antioxidant enzymes were significantly improved to mitigate artemisinin and A. trifida extract induced stress (P < 0.05). In addition, the sensitivity of the investigated metabolic processes in winter rye seedlings were highest to artemisinin and A. trifida extract in the freezing process. This study suggested that the stress response induced by artemisinin and A. trifida extract on winter rye seedlings in the freezing process was greater than that in the thawing process.
Keywords: allelopathy, artemisinin, combined stress, freeze–thaw, giant ragweed, plant physiology, tolerance, winter rye.
