Resumo: | Aluminum (Al) is an ubiquitously present element in soil; it is considered as a major problem in crop production that affects plant growth and development on acid soils. The aim of this work was to determine the germination parameters, to quantify the water status and growth, to assess the Al accumulation, and antioxidant enzyme activities in plants to evaluate the stress exerted by aluminum in Cucumis sativus L. For germination test, increasing doses of Al were used (0, 200, 500, 1,000, and 2,000 μM). Results showed that germination was stimulated with 500 of Al. Aluminum effects on development were studied by treating the plants with different concentrations of Al (100, 200, 300, and 500 µM, Al) during 45 days. As regards to the plant's growth, water content, and dry biomass production there was a slight increase. On the other hand, the activities of the antioxidant enzymes were disturbed by aluminum stress. Data indicate that the catalase (CAT) activity showed a decrease in the different parts of the plant. However, guaiacol peroxidase (GPX) and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) activities were significantly stimulated. Studying the effects of Al-induced stress allowed us to conclude that cucumber has a high ability to accumulate this element in the roots. |
