Abstract
In this study, the wheat seeds were soaked in the solution of HgCl_2, the effects of Hg~(2+) on the biological effects of crop, membrane lipid peroxidation, permeability of plasms membrane, activities of protective enzyme and soluble protein content of wheat seedling during germination were investigated, the results showed that with the increase of concentration of pretreatment Hg~(2+), root length, shoot height, dry matter weight of root and shoot and ratio of root to shoot of wheat decreased, malondialdehyde(MDA)content, permeability of plasma membrane, activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and peroxidase (POD), contents of soluble protein increased, while activity of catalase (CAT) decreased.
