Abstract
A pot experiment was conducted to study the cadmium stress on the growth of the four varieties of alfalfa at seedling stage,and to explore differences in Cd-tolerance among four varieties of alfalfa.The results indicated that the morphological and physiological characteristics of alfalfa in low level of Cd treatments were superior to the control,showing low levels of cadmium can promote plant growth.The height and weight of alfalfa seedlings and the ability of chlorophyll synthesis decreased,contents of proline and MDA increased,and the CAT activity reduced under high density of Cd treatments.There were significant differences in Cd-tolerance among four varieties of alfalfa,and Cd-tolerance of the four varieties of alfalfa was evaluated by subordinate function value method,the capacity of Cd-tolerance followed the sequence: Xinjiangdaye Longdong Manas Shihezi.
