摘要：

Fatty acid content and composition of chloroplast membranes, ethylene production associated with thylakoid lipids degradation as well as photosynthetic electron transport involving photosystems 1 and 2 were used to determine the effects of increasing Cd concentrations in the growth medium [0, 14, 28, and 42 mg(Cd) kg(-1)(sand)] on the photosynthetic performance of barley plants (H. vulgare L., cv. CE9704). High concentrations of Cd triggered serious disturbances of the chloroplast membranes. Ethylene production increased whereas a drop of 18: 3 fatty acid content occurred, indicating that Cd mediates lipid peroxidation in the thylakoids. The enhanced ethylene production could be used as an early indicator of Cd-induced membrane degradation, yet at very high concentration (42 mg kg(-1)) Cd decreased ethylene production.
