Popis: Abstract Pb, Cu, Cd, Zn content of soil in mining areas and abandoned land, flats of the Pijiang River and farmlands were investigated. On this basis of soil heavy metal pollution, the changes of antioxidant enzyme system in maize (Qiandan 88) under different Pb concentrations (0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 150, 200, 500, 1000, 2000, 3000 mg/L) stress were studied. The results show that the content of Pb, Cu, Cd, and Zn in soil is the highest in mining areas and abandoned land, followed by flats of the Pijiang River > farmlands, and that the variation range of Pb, Cu, Cd in mining areas and abandoned land are 106.40–2564.72, 14.83–490.88, 22.57–712.77 mg/kg, respectively, which are higher than that of the other land use types. When maize is under stress of 20–500 mg/L Pb concentration, T-SOD activity of maize leaves increase with the increase of Pb concentration and the highest value is 50.21 U/mg prot, but under Pb concentration > 1000 mg/L stress, T-SOD activity of maize leaves decrease gradually. The activity of POD decreases with the increases of Pb concentration, and the lowest POD activity of leaves in maize with the value of 93.24 U/mg prot is appeared in Pb 1000 mg/L concentration treatment group. MDA content in leaves of maize increases with the increase of the Pb concentration and the highest value is 101.98 nmol/mg prot, then the content of MDA decreases gradually when the Pb concentration is more than 500 mg/L, which indicates that the membrane lipid peroxidation of maize leaves under high concentration of Pb stress is serious and leads to the cell damage.
