The impact of drought stress under different soil matrices on physiological characteristics of soybean seedlings.

ABSTRACT: Drought stress can affect the growth of soybean seedlings because soybeans require a large amount of water for growth and development. However, the storage and redistribution of water in the soil are related to the soil's texture. This experiment used the soybean varieties hefeng46 and heinong84, and studied the effects of four moisture conditions on the content of membrane lipid peroxides, the activities of enzymes and non-enzymatic antioxidants the content, and also the key enzymes of carbon and nitrogen metabolism in soybean seedlings under loamy sand and sandy loam soil conditions. The results suggested that as the duration of drought increased, in loamy sand, under serious drought (SD), the contents of malondialdehyde and proline, as well as the activities of superoxide dismutase and
