Seed Deterioration in Eruca sativa (Miller) Thell. Varieties: Comparative factors between Seeds and Leaves
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 11
Abstract
The present study focuses on the role of oxidative stress and the antioxidant defense mechanism in deteriorated seed of Eruca sativa (Miller) Thell. Fifteen varieties were undertaken to demonstrate the effect of seed deterioration in seeds and leaves and observations were recorded for seed germination and seedling growth parameters, and various biophysical and biochemical parameters. Increased level of electrolyte leakage, malondialdehyde and reactive oxygen species was observed in varieties with low germination percentage. A high level of correlation was found between the loss of seed viability and increase level of reactive oxygen species. Seed deterioration appears to be attributed to loss of antioxidant defense mechanism.
