ABSTRACT = {Salt-acclimated soybean plants had higher activities of glutathione reductase and of its related enzymes, ascorbate peroxidase, and dehydroascorbate reductase, than those of non-acclimated plants grown under the salt-stress condition. Those enzymes, which mainly distributed in different organelles under normal growth condition, became predominantly in cytosol under this adverse environment. Those H2O2 scavenging enzymes might protect the plasma membrane of leaf cells from lipid peroxidation. The maintaining of integrity of plasma membrane of leaf cells by reduction of the lipid peroxidation might reduce the level of ionic leakage out of cells, and so favors plants to adapt the salt-stress environment. Besides, the glutathione reductase also kept high ratio of GSH/GSSG in cytosol. The high ratio of GSH/GSSG may have positive effects on plants to tolerate the salt-stress environment.},
