Abstract:
In order to reveal the biochemical mechanism and utilization of Se (Ⅵ) in roots of flue-cured tobacco, hydroponic experiments were conducted to study the kinetics of Se (Ⅵ) absorption in cultivars K326 and Yunyan87 under different pH, accompanying ions and inhibitor conditions through ion depletion. The results showed that compared with K326, Yunyan87 belonged to a high
Imax (maximum uptake rate) and low
Km (dissociation constant) tobacco cultivars, and had a higher Se (Ⅵ) nutrient efficiency. Under weak acidic (pH=6) to neutral (pH=7) conditions, it was more conducive to the absorption of Se (Ⅵ), while a strong acid environment (pH=5) reduced the absorption efficiency of Se (Ⅵ). The presence of accompanying ions SO
42- and PO
43- inhibited the absorption and accumulation of Se (Ⅵ) in the roots and reduced the affinity of the tobacco to Se (Ⅵ), with SO
42- being a stronger effect. The addition of respiratory inhibitor CCCP and channel inhibitor LaCl
3 significantly inhibited the absorption of roots to Se (Ⅵ), and CCCP had a greater influence than LaCl
3.
