Effects of exogenous 6-BA and NAA on growth and contents of medicinal ingredient of Phellodendron chinense seedlings

الملخص EN

Using Phellodendron chinense seedlings as material, and treated with different concentrations of exogenous 6-Benzylaminopurine (6-BA) and a-naphthyacetic acid (NAA), then observed the growth status.

Furthermore, we detected the contents of chlorophyll and soluble sugar, the activities of antioxidases by spectrophotometry, and determined the contents of secondary metabolite by high performance liquid chromatograph.

The results showed that different concentrations of exogenous 6-BA increases the fresh weights and plant heights of Phellodendron chinense seedlings, and enhances the contents of chlorophyll and soluble sugar.

NAA promoted growth, but deduced the contents of soluble sugar.

Compared with control, culturing for 40 d, proper concentrations 6-BA enhanced the activity levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD) and catalase (CAT), proper concentrations NAA increased the activity levels of SOD and CAT, but decreased the levels of POD compared with CK.

Suitable concentrations 6-BA enhanced contents of berberine, phellodendrine and palmatine in stems, proper concentrations NAA increased contents of berberine and phellodendrine, but deduced contents of palmatine compared with CK.

Based on these results, we concluded that the exogenous 6-BA and NAA had key regulation on the growth and contents of medicinal ingredient of Phellodendron chinense seedlings
