Abstract
â¶ The accumulations of proline and soluble sugars could improve drought tolerance of karst plants. â¶ Higher activities of antioxidant enzymes permitted higher photosynthetic efficiency of karst plants. â¶ There were intimate relationships between enhanced or constitutive antioxidant enzyme activities in response to drought stress. â¶ The accumulations of proline and soluble sugars could activate the antioxidant defense mechanisms. â¶ The site-species matching work can contribute to the success of re-vegetation programs.
