Abstract:Abstracts:The seedlings of Solanum pseudocapsicum were used as the experimental materials. It was supplemented with different concentrations of ronidazole in MS medium, in order to explore its impact on plant root development. The result showed that there were significant(P<0.05)or very significant(P<0.01)differences in total root length, hypocotyl length, root volume, root number, root branching number, root surface area and projected area, biomass, ratio of root and stem when the seedlings were supplemented with different concentrations of ronidazole. With increasing concentration, total root length would decrease, hypocotyl length would increase, the average diameter of the root segment would increase too, but no significant differences(P>0.05);The using of ronidazole could reduce the number of lateral roots, also lead to decline of the number of root branching, root surface area and the projected area. There were no significant differences(P>0.05)in root altitude and external pathway length between different treatment. With increasing concentration of ronidazole, the biomass of Solanum pseudocapsicum and ratio of root and stem would both decrease.
