Abstract:

Stress had a serious effect on yield and quality of cotton . It could lead to reactive oxygen species (ROS) increasing in cotton plant, and enzymatic antioxidant system which could scavenge active oxygen, played an important role in adverse resistance physiology during cotton growth. In this paper, on the basis of a brief introduction of cotton enzymatic antioxidant system, the research progress on enzymatic antioxidant system response to different stresses, such as drought, salt injury, verticillium and so on, in recent years were reviewed. The problems and prospects on enzymatic antioxidant system response to stress in cotton were put forward.
