The effects of different NH4+-N to NO3--N ratio (NH4+ /NO3-) (0, 1/8, 1/4 and 1/2) on growth and quality of bunching onion (Allium fistulosum L. var. caespitosum Makino) under high temperature stress (34°C/26°C, day/night) were studied in growth chamber by hydroponics. The results showed that the growth and quality of bunching onion were affected by NH4+ /NO3-. Plant weight and height, leaf number per plant were the highest in the treatment which NH4+ /NO3- was 1/8, and those in treatment without NH4+-N were higher than in other 2 treatments. With the NH4+ /NO3- increasing, nitrate concentration in bunching onion decreased. The concentration of vitamin C was the highest in the treatment which NH4+ /NO3- was 1/8, while concentration of soluble sugar, soluble protein and allicin were the highest in the treatment which NH4+ /NO3-was 1/2. Thus the growth and quality of bunching onion were better in the NH4+ /NO3- range of 1/8 to 1/4.

The effect of water stress on growth and quality of bunching onion(Allium fistulosum L. var. caespitosum Makino)was studied in hydroponics by PEG treatments (10%, 15%, 20%). The results showed that the growth of bunching onion was significantly affected by water stress induced by PEG. Plant height, pseudo-stem weight, total plant weight decreased with PEG concentration increased, the inhibitions in 10% PEG and 20% PEG were greater than in 15% PEG. The root/shoot ratio increased in PEG treatments. Concentrations of allicin and pyruvic acid significantly increased at 10, 17 days after PEG treatments. With PEG concentration increased, concentrations of soluble protein increased.

Effects of nitrogen and sulphur [N3.75S0.35 (N 3.75 mmol/L, S 0.35mmol/L), N3.75S4.2(N 3.75 mmol/L, S 4.2mmol/L), N7.5S1.4(N 7.5 mmol/L, S 1.4mmol/L), N22.5S0.35(N 22.5 mmol/L, S 0.35mmol/L)] on the growth and quality of in bunching onion (Allium fistulosum L. var. caespeitosum Makino) were studied in hydroponics, in which the solution was Hoagland's. The results showed that the growth of bunching onion in N7.5S1.4 treatment was better than in other treatments. With nitrogen increasing, the growth of bunching onion enhanced at the same sulphur level, and the growth of bunching onion enhanced by sulphur increase at the same nitrogen level. Concentrations of chlorophyll a, b, total chlorophyll and carotenoid in N7.5S1.4 treatment were highest. With nitrogen and sulphur increasing, concentration of soluble protein and nitrate in bunching onion increased. While concentration of soluble sugar decreased with nitrogen increased.

<p align="left">This study aimed to investigate the mechanisms involved in <em>Microcystis aeruginosa</em> (<em>M. aeruginosa</em>) compensatory growth after moderate high-temperature stress. In the experiment, <em>M. aeruginosa</em> were cultured for 3, 6, and 12 d at 35°C before being transferred to normal conditions (25°C), and then cultured for 30 days for recovery. The algae that were cultured constantly at 25°C were set as control. The results showed that the growth of <em>M. aeruginosa</em> was inhibited significantly by the moderate high-temperature stress. During the recovery phase, the <em>M. aeruginosa</em> cultured at 35°C for 3, 6, and 12 days exhibited under-compensation, over-compensation, and equal-compensation, respectively. To cope with moderate high-temperature stress, <em>M. aeruginosa</em> implement various mechanisms, including increasing antioxidant enzyme activities and chlorophyll a content; adjusting compatible solutes (soluble protein and sugar). The <em>M. aeruginosa</em> cultured at 35°C for 6 days has higher antioxidant enzyme activities, relatively low malondialdehyde content, and higher soluble sugar content during the recovery phase; therefore, <em>M. aeruginosa</em> cultured at 35°C for 6 days exhibited over-compensation growth. Grey correlation analysis revealed that the increase of chlorophyll a, soluble sugar, and superoxide dismutase activity play key roles in the compensatory growth of <em>M. aeruginosa</em>.</p>

Abstract To determine the effect of abscisic acid (ABA), brassinolide (BR) and ABA+BR on grape quality under high temperature stress (HTS), various metabolites were analyzed. Compared with the control (CK), DL-tryptophan, D-raffinose, geniposidic acid, dodecanedioic acid and polyphenols were found to be higher after ABA treatment. After BR treatment, amino acids and poricoic acid B were higher than in CK. And carbohydrates and amino acids were upregulated after ABA+BR treatment. BR and ABA+BR treatment also induced higher endogenous ABA and epibrassinolide (EBR) contents. In addition, treated grape had higher soluble solid concentrations (SSC) and soluble sugar content, and delayed the degradation of middle lamella and microfibrils. Antioxidant and heat shock related genes were examined, which significantly increased in treated grape. The finding of this study suggested that ABA, BR and ABA+BR are very useful for alleviating high temperature damage by increasing the accumulation of osmotic adjustment substances, and endogenous hormones content.
