The article presents an overview of the mechanism chromium stress in plants. Chromium is known to be a toxic metal that can cause severe damage plants and animals. Chromium-induced oxidative involves induction lipid peroxidation causes cell membranes. Oxidative induced by initiates degradation photosynthetic pigments causing decline growth. High concentration disturb chloroplast ultrastructure thereby disturbing process. Like copper iron, also redox its behaviour exceeds other metals like...
The possible role of Zn and Cr as catalytic inducers free radicals in wheat leaves was investigated. Treatment excess heavy metals decreased the chlorophyll carotenoid content with increase time excision. A sharp proline accumulation marked metal concentration. Total peroxide lipid peroxidation measured malondialdehyde showed uniform under treatment excised leaves. At almost all concentrations, catalase, guaiacol peroxidase superoxide dismutase activities a minor earlier days Though...
Water homeostasis is crucial to the growth and survival of plants under water-related stress. Plasma membrane intrinsic proteins (PIPs) have been shown be primary channels mediating water uptake in plant cells. Here we report transport activity mechanisms for regulation barley (Hordeum vulgare) PIP aquaporins. HvPIP2 but not HvPIP1 were found show robust when expressed alone Xenopus laevis oocytes. However, co-expression with oocytes resulted significant increases compared expression alone,...
Aluminum (Al) is the third most abundant metal in earth crust, whose chemical form mainly dependent on soil pH. The toxic of Al with respect to plants Al3+, which exists pH <5. Acidic significantly limits crop production due Al3+ toxicity worldwide, impacting approximately 50% world's arable land (in North-Eastern India 80% are acidic). ensues root growth inhibition leading less nutrient and water uptake productivity as a whole. Rice one chief grains constitutes staple food two-third world...
NaCl salt stress induced changes in growth and enzyme activities blackgram (Phaseolus mungo L.) seeds during germination were studied. A decrease percentage, root length, shoot fresh mass was noticed with an increase concentration. With the concentration duration of proline content increased catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POX) polyphenol oxidase (PPO) decreased.
Abstract Being a toxic metalloid and group I carcinogen, Arsenic (As) poses threat to plants, especially crops which are consumed by human beings, sooner or later results in hyper/hypopigmentation skin cancer. It is well‐known fact that South‐East Asia suffering from groundwater As contamination, according recent report, the contamination has been found also Hungary, Mexico, Argentina, Australia, United States, etc. Thus, become global problem. even at low concentration because it no known...
Plants are subjected to several abiotic stresses that adversely affect growth, metabolism and yield. The dynamic research in plant genetics complemented by genome sequencing has opened up avenues address multiple problems caused stresses. Though many drought-induced genes have been phytoengineered a wide range of plants, the drought signal transduction pathways, alteration sensing signaling systems adverse environments still remain an intriguing subject for comprehensive investigation. To...
We characterized an aquaporin gene HvPIP2;5 from Hordeum vulgare and investigated its physiological roles in heterologous expression systems, yeast Arabidopsis, under high salt osmotic stress conditions. In yeast, the of enhanced abiotic tolerance Arabidopsis plants overexpressing also showed better germination root growth stresses than wild type (WT). were able to survive recover after a 3-week drought period unlike control which wilted died during treatment. Indeed, overexpression caused...
Lipid peroxidation is a physiological indicator of both biotic and abiotic stress responses, hence often used as biomarker to assess stress-induced cell damage or death. Here we demonstrate an easy, quick cheap staining method lipid in plant tissues. In this methodology, Schiff's reagent, assay for membrane degradation. Histochemical detection performed protocol. brief, reagent detects aldehydes that originate from peroxides stressful condition. prepared applied plants tissue. After the...
