In order to investigate the effects of spermidine (Spd) and spermine (Spm) on the stress of cadmium chloride (CdCl₂), it was checked that the content of polyamines and malondialdehyde (MDA), the rate of superoxide anion (O₂ ⁻) generation and the activities of superoxidase dismutase (SOD) and guaiacol peroxidase (GPX) in 1-year-old Malus hupehensis Rehd. var. pinyiensis Jiang (tea crabapple) seedlings grown in nutrient solution. The result showed that the content of free putrescine (Put) was increased, the contents of free Spd and Spm and the (Spd+Spm)/Put ratio in leaves were decreased significantly under CdCl₂ treatment. Foliar spraying with Spd or Spm under CdCl₂ treatment, the accumulation of free Put reduced, the contents of free Spd and Spm and the ratio of (Spd+Spm)/Put in leaves increased significantly. The activities of SOD and GPX in leaves were enhanced and O₂ ⁻ generation rate and MDA content were decreased significantly by foliar spraying with Spd or Spm under CdCl₂ treatment. Results suggest that both Spd and Spm can alleviate the lipid peroxidation caused by CdCl₂ in M. hupehensis var. pinyiensis.
