Abstract: Chinese cabbage cultivar Aijiaohuang was grown in an indoor experiment treated by 0.0,13.0(simulating 20% ozone depletion)kJ m -2 day -1 of ultraviolet B(UV B)for 4 and 7 days to study the effect of supplemental UV B radiation on flavoniods and lipid peroxidation in the leaves of Chinese cabbage.Accumulation of UV absorbing flavonoids in the leaves of Chinese cabbage was induced by UV B radiation.Enhanced UV B radiation reduced ascorbic acid content in the leaves of Chinese cabbage .It was also found that 13.0 kJm -2 day -1 UV B inhibited catalase and superoxide dismutase activities and increased malondialdehyde content in the leaves of Chinese cabbage .These effects induced by UV B radiation was enhanced with the time course of treatment.The results above suggested that supplemental UV B radiation enhanced lipid peroxidation of Chinese cabbage,and the accumulation of UV absorbing flavonoid could not alleviate the damage of UV B radiation.

Key words: Chinese cabbage, Ultraviolet B, Flavonoids, Ascorbic acid, Lipid Peroxidation
