植物褪黑素研究

摘要

As a kind of good antioxidant and natural bioactivator, melatonin ( N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) can strength-en the resistance of plants to various abiotic stresses, such as drought, cold, salinity, heat, herbicides, chemical pollutants, UV irradiation and pathogenic infection. This article summarizes the biosynthesis, content and functions of plant melatonin, in order to propel the application of plant melatonin in agricultural production.%褪黑素作为一种良好的抗氧化剂,能够增强植物应对干旱、寒冷、盐等非生物胁迫的能力,就褪黑素的合成、含量、功能进行了综述,以推动作为天然生物活性物质的褪黑素在农业中的应用.
