Abstract
Lipid peroxidation products, antioxidative enzymes (superoxide dismutase and catalase) and water-soluble non-protein and water-soluble protein thiol contents were studied in soybean leaves affected by sulfate deprivation and Pb exposure. Sulfur promoted the regulation of adaptive reactions via an enhanced formation of water-soluble non-protein thiols. The reaction of soybean plants to Pb exposure was dependent on sulfur supply. At sufficient-sulfur conditions, higher water-soluble non-protein thiol compounds might contribute to better defense against Pb.
