Abstrakt: Salicylic acid (SA) is a well-known priming agent that is widely used to protect plants against stressing agents, including heavy metals as Pb. A better understanding of the mechanisms that enable plants to counteract Pb toxicity would help to select strategies for land reclamation programs. Here we used a metallicolous population of Zygophyllum fabago to assess the extent to which SA pretreatment modulates Pb-induced changes in phenol metabolism and stress-related phytohormone levels in roots and leaves. Our data revealed that accumulation of different phytohormones, lignin, soluble and wall-bound phenolics as well as peroxidase (PRX) activity in Pb-stressed plants differed after SA-pretreatment. Exposure to Pb led to the induction of soluble and cell wall-bound PRX activities, particularly those involved in the oxidation of coniferyl alcohol and ferulic acid, while pretreatment with SA reduced the Pb-induced stimulation of PRX activities in roots but increased them in leaves. SA-treatment by itself induced accumulation of ABA and the JA-precursor 12-oxo-phytodienoic acid (OPDA) in the roots. Pb in turn inhibited these SA-induced effects with the exception of OPDA accumulation that was primed by the pretreatment. The SA treatment also induced accumulation of OPDA in leaves but suppressed the accumulation of JA-Ile although with relatively small absolute changes. Notably, Pb-induced accumulation of ABA was primed in the leaves of SA-pretreated plants. Together our data suggest that priming of OPDA accumulation in the roots and of ABA in the leaves by SA-pretreatment may play important regulatory roles, possibly via regulating PRX activities, for Pb stress in plants.
