Abstract
The effect of exogenous H 2O 2 on antioxidant system was studied in callus tissues of drought-resistant (PAN 6043) and drought-sensitive (SC 701) cultivars of maize ( Zea mays L.). Eight day old calli were harvested and soaked with hydrogen peroxide solution (10 -4 , 10 -3 and 10 -2 mol L -1 ) for 3 h. Hydrogen peroxide damaged the calli, as indicated by the increase in leakage of electrolytes, the contents of H 2O 2 and malondiadehyde, as well as the reduction in ascorbate and carotenoid contents in the calli of the both cultivars. Hydrogen peroxide (10 -4 mol/L ) had small oxidant effect. When calli were treated by hydrogen peroxide, the activities of SOD, POD, AP and GR, and the levels of AsA and CAR remained higher in the calli of the drought resistant cultivar than those of the drought sensitive one. The results showed that the higher activity of the antioxidant system had a greater protective effect against oxidative stress caused by hydrogen peroxide in drough resistant cultivar than in the drought sensitive cultivar.
