Zusammenfassung: | The objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship between excess manganese and waterlogging tolerance in 18th selection cycle Zea mays L. cv. Saracura plants. Maize plants were transferred to plastic receptacles containing solutions with different concentrations of manganese. Leaves and roots were evaluated at the beginning of treatment and after 7, 14, and 21 days for chlorophyll content, biomass production and antioxidant metabolism. Mn was strongly translocated from the roots to the leaves, triggering a decrease in chlorophyll content. Excess Mn promoted an increase in reactive oxygen species that was accompanied by higher levels of antioxidative enzyme activity and lipid peroxidation. Zea mays L. cv. Saracura efficiently sequestered relatively large amounts of Mn in the leaves, with a significant impact on metabolism; however, we did not observe visual symptoms or a large decrease in biomass production. Keywords: hypoxia, chlorophyll, oxidative stress. O objetivo desse trabalho foi avaliar a relacao entre a toxicidade de manganes e a tolerancia ao alagamento em plantas de Zea mays L. cv. Saracura do 18[degrees] ciclo de selecao. Plantas de milho foram transferidas para recipientes plastico contendo solucoes com diferentes concentracoes de manganes. Folhas e raizes foram coletadas antes dos tratamentos, 7, 14 e 21 apos a imposicao dos tratamentos para as analises de conteudo de clorofilas e carotenoides, producao de biomassa e metabolismo antioxidante. O Mn foi fortemente translocado das raizes para as folhas desencadeando uma consideravel reducao no conteudo foliar de clorofila. O excesso de Mn desencadeou uma aumento na producao de especies reativas de oxigenio, o que foi acompanhado por uma elevacao na atividade das enzimas do metabolismo antioxidante e da peroxidacao lipidica. Zea mays L. cv. Saracura demonstrou ser eficiente no sequestro de uma grande quantidade de Mn nas folhas, com um significativo impacto no metabolismo, no entanto sem o aparecimento de sintomas visuais e sem uma grande reducao no seu crescimento. Palavras-chave: hypoxia, clorofila, estresse oxidativo. |
