Abstract:In the water stress period of annual growing season,the activities of SOD(superoxide dismutase)were positively correlated with the DI (drought resistance index)values,among the six species: Malus micromalus,Populus beijingensis,P.hopeiensis,P.simonii,Caragana korshinskii and Robinia pseudoacacia. However the activity of peroxide(POD) was not correlated significantly because other anti oxidant enzymes and/or antioxidants,which play a same role as POD,may exist in some of the tested species.In the s...
