Abstract The effect of short-term exposure to elevated CO2 concentration and high irradiance on the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), ascorbate peroxidase (APX), guaiacol peroxidases (GPX) and catalase (CAT), and on the extent of the lipid peroxidation was studied in bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) plants. Plants were exposed for 4 d (8 h a day) to irradiance of 100 (LI) or 1000 (HI) μmol m−2 s−1 at ambient (CA, 350 μmol mol−1) or elevated (CE, 1300 μmol mol−1) CO2 concentration. Four-day exposure to CE increased the leaf dry mass in HI plants and RuBPC activity and chlorophyll content in LI plants. Total soluble protein content, leaf dry matter and RuBPC activity were higher in HI than in LI plants, although the HI and CE increased the contents of malonyldialdehyde and H2O2. Under CA, exposure to HI increased the activity of APX and decreased the total SOD activity. Under CE, HI treatment also activated APX and led to reduction of both, SOD and GPX, enzymes activities. CE considerably reduced the CAT activity at both irradiances, possibly due to suppressed rate of photorespiration under CE conditions.
