Abstract:To investigate the combined toxictiy of AgNPs and Cd2+ on Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings, the root length, the number of root hairs, the content of photosynthetic pigment and protein, superoxide dismutade (SOD) and peroxidase (POD) activity were measured after one week exposure to different concentrations of PVP coated-AgNPs and Cd2+. Results showed that high concentration (5mg/L) of Cd2+ could significantly inhibit root elongation and increase the protein content and SOD, POD activity. After adding AgNPs in high concentration (5mg/L) of Cd2+ treatment, the inhibition effect of Cd2+ on Arabidopsis thaliana root length was significantly increased while the inhibition effect of AgNPs on Arabidopsis thaliana root hairs was decreased. After adding AgNPs in low concentration (0.1and 1mg/L) of Cd2+ treatment, the inhibition effect of Cd2+ on Arabidopsis thaliana photosynthetic pigment content were significantly increased. In Cd2+ treatment, SOD, POD activity reached the highest when the seedlings were exposured to 1mg/L AgNPs. Above results showed that Cd2+ and AgNPs had interaction effects on root morphology and leaves physiological indexes of Arabidopsis thaliana.
