Antimony (Sb) is a toxic metalloid, and excess Sb causes damage to the plant photosynthetic system. However, the underlying mechanisms of Sb toxicity in the plant photosynthetic system are not clear. Hydroponic culture experiments were conducted to illustrate the toxicity differences of antimonite [Sb(III)] and antimonate [Sb(V)] to the photosynthetic system in a rice plant (Yangdao No. 6). The results showed that Sb(III) showed a higher toxicity than Sb(V), judging from (1) lower shoot and root biomass, leaf water moisture content, water use efficiency, stomatal conductance, net photosynthetic rate, and transpiration rate; (2) higher water vapor deficit, soluble sugar content, starch content, and oligosaccharide content (sucrose, stachyose, and 1–kestose). To further analyze the direction of the photosynthetic products, we conducted a metabonomic analysis. More glycosyls were allocated to the synthesis pathways of oligosaccharides (sucrose, stachyose, and 1–kestose), anthocyanins, salicylic acid, flavones, flavonols, and lignin under Sb stress to quench excess oxygen free radicals (ROS), strengthen the cell wall structure, rebalance the cell membrane, and/or regulate cell permeability. This study provides a complete mechanism to elucidate the toxicity differences of Sb(III) and Sb(V) by exploring their effects on photosynthesis, saccharide synthesis, and the subsequent flow directions of glycosyls.
