One G. pentaphyllum plant (5-foliolate) was obtained from Beis-han of Jinhua, Zhejiang Province and then planted in ZhejiangNormal University of botany experimental garden. Reproduction of new plants was used by cutting propagation. After 5 years we obtained sufficient plant material for this study. The seedling swere planted in a temperature-controlled greenhouse (24◦C) from October to December (2014). Prior to treatment in a growth chamber, healthy plants were transplanted into pots (18 cm × 16 cm).The pots were filled with 3 kg of red soil combined with organicfertilizer of peat (19:1, w/w; total of organic matter content isapproximately 60 g kg−1) (Wilson et al., 2004). 50 plants were moved to each growth chamber. All plants were watered sparingly twice a week with 100 mL of modified Hoagland nutrient solution.The plant samples were evaluated at 60 days after treatment
