For the short-day plant Chenopodium rubrum, a 14 h/10 h photoperiod is inductive for flowering, while continuous light (CL) in noninductive. Plants of one group were grown continuously under an inductive photoperiod, while in other group flowering induction was delayed by 17 days of CL in order to separate on the time scale different developmental phases in plants of the same age. Regardless of the photoperiodic conditions the plants were exposed to, seed maturation occurred in 10 weeks. Activities of catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POD) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were determined in different phases of development (vegetative growth, flowering, seed development, and maturation). The activities of antioxidative enzymes depended on both the phase of development and of the photoperiod. In plants grown continuously under an inductive photoperiod high CAT and POD activities were detected at the time of flowering and decreased during seed development and maturation. In plants in which flowering induction was delayed by 17 days of continuous light, the activities of POD and SOD were lowest in the vegetative phase of development and attained maximum values in the phase of seed maturation. In both groups of plants, the highest CAT activity was measured at the time of flowering.
