Abstract
Pomelo seedlings were foliar sprayed by 100mg/L uniconazole,and then treated with water stre-ss.The results show that uniconazole treatment can improve leaf Ψw and RWC under water stress,and dorought-resistance is enhanced.Uniconazole treatment can also promote leaf SOD,APX activities,and AsA,GSH,free proline contents,while it has no effect on CAT activity.It suggests that uniconazole treatment increass defensive capacity of membrane lipid peroxidation and stability of membrane,resulting in the enhancement of drought resistance of pomelo seedlings.
