Investigation of physiological responses of wheat under salt stress
Journal Title: International Journal of Farming and Allied Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
Salinity is a major problem which negatively affects a multitude of metabolic processes of plants resulting in reduced growth and yield of most crops. In this investigation the physiological parameters on wheat under salt stress (25 & 100 mM NaCl) were conducted. Experiments revealed that MDA and proline, accumulated under salt stress but photosynthetic pigments such as chlorophyll a, b, total and cartenoides reduced. Other parameters such as sugars and protein contents decreased under salt stress. Also, salt stress causes accumulation of AOS and the wheat physiological response is enhancement the activity of antioxidative enzymes such as guaiacol peroxidase.
