Abstract: We choose Arabidopsis as material. The research studies on the important physiology role of calcium in root development and resistance to salt stress. In this study, the fresh weight, primary root, lateral roots and root hairs of Arabidopsis thaliana were all inhibited on the calcium deprivation media. The plants grown on control media were evoked a transient rise of cytosolic Ca2+ ([Ca2+ ]cyt) by 50 mmol /L NaCl, while the plants grown on calcium deprivation media were evoked three. The peaks of signal were 0. 325,0. 476 μmol /L, respectively. It is suggested the plants were more sensitive to salt stress under the calcium deprivation condition.

Key words: Arabidopsis thaliana, Calcium deprivation, Seedling, Salt stress
