Abstract: Lamiophlomis rotata is an endangered medicinal plant distributed in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. In order to study the effects of exogenous Ca2+ on the L.rotata, 36 plants and 36 seedlings were selected at Maqu Wild Tending Base, different concentrations of CaCl2 (0, 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 mmol·L-1) were sprayed at different times before wintering. And each treatment sample was taken back to the laboratory to determine the resistance related physiological and biochemical indexes, such as the membrane stability, osmotic adjustment, membrane lipid peroxidation, antioxidant enzymes in the leaves. The results shown that exogenous Ca2+ had a significant impact on the resistance index of L. rotate after low temperature treatment in different concentrations. The degree of influence varies with the treatment concentrations and spray times. The proper CaCl2 concentration (the best concentration located to 2 twice 15 mmol·L-1) can significantly regulate soluble sugar content, antioxidant enzymes such as SOD and POD activities, which consequently mitigate the membrane lipid peroxidation and enhance the stability of the membrane systems. Moreover, exogenous Ca2+ can reduce the relative conductivity and MDA content, and increase root activity. In conclution, exogenous Ca2+ can increase the rate of re-green of L. rotata, and which have a potential application value in domestication and nurture of L. rotate.

Key words: Lamiophlomis rotata, exogenous Ca2+, live through the winter, physiological traits
