Evaluation of antioxidant enzymes activity in Turnip (Brassica rapa L.) under salt stress
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 10, Issue 2
Abstract
In this research, sixteen turnip cultivars were compared at 4 salinity levels (0, 60, 120 and 180 mM) for their catalase, malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase activity, and vitamin C in a factorial experiment based in a randomized complete design (RCD) with 3 replications. In our study, we found that NaCl concentrations greater than 120 and 180 mM caused the irreversible disorders. Increased salt concentrations led to significant changes in the levels of antioxidative enzymes and vitamin C in sixteen turnip cultivars.
