Abstract

Four shrubs，Lespedeza formosa，Indigofera pseudotinctoria，Cassia corymbosa，Amorpha fruticosa，were studied with natural drought stress（no watering） of four lasting drought stages and subsequent watering，in regards to antioxidant enzyme activity，praline（Pro） content and malondialdehyde（MDA） content. The control was seedlings with normal watering. Thirty seedlings of each shrubs were randomly arranged with three replications. Physical indexes were determined every seven days. The results showed that superoxide dismutase （SOD） activity of L. formosa and I. pseudotinctoria had a significant increase（P＜0.05） at the end of the drought stress，and decreased significantly（P＜0.05） after watering again. Meanwhile，C. corymbosa and A. fruticosa rose sharply with significant difference（P＜0.05） then continually decreased significantly（P＜0.05），and after watering again，the former decreased insignificantly while the later increased significantly；changes for peroxidase（POD）activity of the four shrubs almost followed a same trend，that is，after increasing，there was a significant decrease（P＜0.05），then increased distinctively after watering again. Pro content kept significant increase（P＜0.05）while decreased significantly （P＜0.05） after watering again with the most extent of L. formosa and the least of C. corymbosa. MDA content decreased indistinctively and then increased significantly（P＜0.05）before undergoing a significant decrease（P＜0.05）after watering again. Overall，changes in biochemical substances of the four shrubs with drought stress differed due to plant material itself and C. corymbosa exhibiting the best resistance to drought by comprehensive analysis.［Ch，5 fig. 10 ref.］
