Abstract:

The research aims to screen out the germplasm resource of Amomun tsao-ko with high cold resistance, provide a basis for hybrid breeding and cultivation of Amomun tsao-ko and facilitate the sustainable development of the Amomun tsao-ko industry. Taking Amomun tsao-ko plants from different origins which has been grown for 6 months as test materials, the materials were cultured under low temperature stress for 3 days (low temperature incubator parameters: 4℃, 12 hours of darkness, 12 hours of light, 90% humidity), the physiological indexes related to cold resistance were measured, and cold resistance of the Amomun tsao-ko germplasm resources of different origins was comprehensively evaluated by using correlation anailsis, principal component analysis and membership function analysis. The results showed that under low temperature (4℃) stress, the chlorophyll content and antioxidant enzyme activity in the leaves of Amomun tsao-ko decreased, while the electrical conductivity, malondialdehyde content, soluble sugar content, and soluble protein content increased to varying degrees. The rank of the cold resistance of the Amomun tsao-ko obtained by the membership function analysis is DH-LC>BS-TC>NJ-GS-GLB>WS-MG>PE-ZY>PE-LC. Among the 6 germplasms from different origins, DH-LC has the best cold resistance, and it could be used as cold resistance material for hybrid breeding and cultivation.
