The effect of drought and salt stresses on the water soluble carbohydrate content in wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) seedlings was examined to characterize involvement major sugar components adaptive processes. Hydroponically grown four varieties differing tolerance were exposed consecutive (polyethylene glycol, PEG) salinity (NaCl) stresses. Total water‐soluble (WSC), glucose, fructose, sucrose, fructan stems (non‐photosynthetic tissue) determined. Tolerant genotypes accumulated more than did...
Glutathione is an important component of the ascorbate-glutathione cycle, which involved in regulation hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) concentrations plants. During chilling and cold acclimation, i.e. exposure to temperatures between 0 15 degrees C, H2O2 may accumulate. Excess electrons from photosynthetic respiratory electron transport chains can be used for reduction oxygen, thus producing superoxide radicals (O2.-); these are subsequently transformed via dismutase (SOD; EC 1.15.1.1). removal...
Water stress during grain filling has a marked effect on yield, leading to reduced endosperm cell number and thus sink capacity accumulate dry matter. The bread wheat cultivar Chinese Spring (CS), terminal deletion line (CS_5AL-10) the durum Creso were subjected transcriptional profiling after exposure mild severe drought at stage find evidences of differential responses associated different genome regions.The transcriptome analysis Creso, CS its revealed 8,552 non redundant probe sets with...
Abstract In winter wheat (Triticum spp.) and barley (Hordeum vulgare) varieties, long exposures to nonfreezing cold temperatures accelerate flowering time (vernalization) improve freezing tolerance (cold acclimation). However, when plants initiate their reproductive development, decreases, suggesting a connection between the two processes. To better understand this connection, we used diploid monococcum) mutants, maintained vegetative phase (mvp), that carry deletions encompassing VRN-1,...
The use of light-emitting diode (LED) technology for plant cultivation under controlled environmental conditions can result in significant reductions energy consumption. However, there is still a lack detailed information on the lighting required optimal growth different species and effects light intensity spectral composition metabolism nutritional quality. In present study, wheat plants were grown six regimens designed to compare LED conventional fluorescent lights development, leaf...
The enhancement of winter hardiness is one the most important tasks facing breeders cereals. For this reason, examination those regulatory genes involved in cold acclimation processes central importance. aim present work was functional analysis two wheat CBF transcription factors, namely TaCBF14 and TaCBF15, shown by previous experiments to play a role development frost tolerance. These were isolated from then transformed into spring barley, after which effect transgenes on low temperature...
Reduced height (Rht) genes have revolutionised wheat cultivation, but they can compromise freezing tolerance, and only a few alleles are in use. Thus, evaluating the role of other Rht stress responses is crucial. Far-red supplementation white light (W+FR) induce pre-hardening cereals at 15°C. However, relevant effect blue enrichment (W+B) poorly described. This study investigates influence W+FR or W+B exposure young winter leaves tall (wild-type, rht12) dwarf, gibberellin-deficient...
The physiological and morphological responses to water stress induced by polyethylene glycol (PEG) or withholding were investigated in Aegilops biuncialis Vis. genotypes differing the annual rainfall of their habitat (1050, 550 225 mm year-1) Triticum aestivum L. wheat drought tolerance. A decrease osmotic pressure nutrient solution from -0.027 -1.8 MPa resulted significant loss, a low degree stomatal closure intercellular CO2 concentration (Ci) originating dry habitats, while high increased...
ABSTRACT Chloroplasts of Nicotiana tabacum SR1 were transferred into plumbaginifolia by protoplast fusion. The protoplasts the organelle donor irradiated with different lethal doses using a 60Co source, to facilitate elimination their nuclei from fusion products. After induction, clones derived products and containing streptomycin-resistant N. chloroplasts selected ability green on selective medium. When inactivated iodoacetate instead irradiation, proportion nuclear segregant was low...
The effects of various light intensities and spectral compositions on glutathione amino acid metabolism were compared in wheat. Increase intensity (low—normal—high) was accompanied by a simultaneous increase the shoot fresh weight, photosynthetic activity content. These parameters also affected modification ratios blue, red far-red components (referred to as pink lights) normal white light. content decreased 50% percentage disulfide (characterising redox state tissues) total pool doubled...
