Salicylic acid (SA) has a key role in the formation of induced systemic resistance and hypersensitive cells, but it has also been indicated to be effective in the formation of strong responses against abiotic stresses such as drought, cold, heavy metal toxicity and osmotic stress. | Turkish Journal of Biology Turk J Biol (2013) 37: 361-369 © TÜBİTAK doi: Research Article Effect of exogenously applied salicylic acid on cadmium chloride-induced oxidative stress and nitrogen metabolism in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum L.) 1, 1 2 Esra KOÇ *, Ayşen Sülün ÜSTÜN , Nuri ÇELİK Department of Biology, Faculty of Science, Ankara University, 06100 Tandoğan, Ankara, Turkey 2 Department of Statistics, Faculty of Science, Ankara University, 06100 Tandoğan, Ankara, Turkey 1 Received: Accepted: Published Online: Printed: Abstract: Salicylic acid (SA) has a key role in the formation of induced systemic resistance and hypersensitive cells, but it has also been indicated to be effective in the formation of strong responses against abiotic stresses such as drought, cold, heavy metal toxicity, and osmotic stress. This study has demonstrated a connection between the total soluble protein and the nitrate reductase (NR) activity. In 20 µM CdCl2, 40 µM CdCl2 + mM SA, and 100 µM CdCl2 + mM SA treatments, on the 1st day following the treatment an increase was detected in the NR activity when compared to the control group (P < ); however, there was a decrease in the NR activity on the 3rd and 5th days of the treatment. An increase in protein amount was detected on the 1st day following the treatment whereas the amount of total soluble protein decreased on the 5th day in comparison to the control group. All concentrations of CdCl2 + mM SA treatments caused an increase in the amounts of malondialdehyde, H2O2, and NO3- on the 5th day of the treatment. Key words: Cadmium, H2O2, nitrate, nitrate reductase activity, malondialdehyde, salicylic acid, tomato 1. Introduction Heavy metals are released from many sources such as industrial activities, municipal waste, mining operations, fertilizer and pesticide use in agriculture, exhaust gases of motor
