As an essential element, zinc (Zn) can improve or inhibit the growth of plants depending on its concentrations. In this study, the effects of 24-Epibrassinolide (EBR), one well-known steroid phytohormone regulating plant growth and alleviating abiotic stress damage, on morphological parameters and antioxidant capacities of Sedum lineare were investigated under different Zn doses. Compared to plants only exposed to Zn, simultaneously foliar application of 0.75 μM EBR significantly improved multiple morphological characteristics and such growth-improving effects were more significant at high Zn concentrations. At a detrimental 800 μM Zn, EBR benefitted plant growth most prominently, as shown by that the stem length, fresh weight and internode length were increased by 111%, 85% and 157%, respectively; than Zn solely treated plants. EBR spray also enhanced both the activities of antioxidant enzymes such as peroxidase (POD), ascorbate peroxidase (APX), glutathione reductase (GR), and the contents of antioxidative agents including ascorbic acid (AsA) and glutathione (GSH), which in turn decreased the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and alleviated the lipid peroxidation in plants. Thus, by demonstrating that EBR could help S. lineare resist high-zinc stress through strengthening the antioxidant system, this work provided a new idea for expanding the planting range of Crassulaceae plants in heavy metal contaminated soil for phytoremediation purpose in the future.
