I use \usepackage{secdot} so I achieved dot after section numbering. But I can't for subsection

The package documentation is your friend.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{secdot}
\sectiondot{subsection}
\begin{document}
\section{A section}
\subsection{A subsection}
\end{document}

You can do this simply with the titlesec package:

[Tex/LaTex] How to remove dot from \subsection* in Appendix

The amsart document class is programmed to insert a "dot" (aka "period" of "full stop") at the end of all sectioning headers below the section level -- and not just in the appendix, but throughout the entire document.

My working assumption is that if you want the dot removed from unnumbered subsection-level headers in the appendix, you will also want to have the dots removed from all other sectioning headers, throughout the entire document.

If this assumption is correct, you can achieve your formatting objective by adding the following code in the preamble:

\usepackage{etoolbox}
\makeatletter
\patchcmd{\@sect}{%
   \ignorespaces#8\unskip\@addpunct.}{\ignorespaces#8\unskip}{}{}
\makeatother

I will leave it to your imagination to determine what \@addpunct. does. :-)
