Soil flooding constitutes a seasonal factor that negatively affects plant performance and crop yields. In this work, the relationship between oxidative damage sensitivity was addressed in three citrus genotypes with different abilities to tolerate waterlogging. We examined leaf visible damage, terms of malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration, proline root ascorbate glutathione contents antioxidant enzyme activities superoxide dismutase (EC 1.15.1.1), peroxidase 1.11.1.11), catalase 1.11.1.6)...
Abstract One of the major problems worldwide is soil pollution by trace metal elements, which limits plant productivity and threatens human health. In this work, we have studied effect different concentrations cadmium on Cucurbita pepo plants, evaluating physiological biochemical parameters: hormone signaling, metabolite concentration (malondialdehyde hydrogen peroxide) and, in addition, antioxidant enzyme activities catalase superoxide dismutase were evaluated. The production biomass...
Abstract Barium (Ba) is a nonessential element that can cause several deleterious effects in most organisms. Elevated Ba concentrations be toxic for plants and may affect growth disturbances homeostasis. This study aimed to evaluate the stress, plant‐tolerance limits, detoxification strategy adopted by Cucumis sativus L. The effect of on seed's germination vegetative development this species was evaluated. For test, different were used (0, 200, 500, 1,000, 2,000 μM). Results showed...
Abstract Traditionally, the root system has been regarded as primary component influencing citrus tolerance. Aerial tissues also play a crucial role in abiotic stress tolerance, they are responsible for vital physiological processes, such photosynthesis and transpiration. In addition, these directly exposed to various conditions, including extreme temperatures (heat cold), high light irradiation, ultraviolet (UV) exposure. current climate change scenario, optimizing both rootstocks grafted...
Abstract Industry residues, phosphate fertilisers and wastewater as a source of irrigation have considerably increased levels heavy metals in the soil, mainly cadmium (Cd 2+ ). To test effects calcium (Ca ) treatment on Cd accumulation plant tolerance to this metal, plants two citrus genotypes, Cleopatra mandarin ( CM Carrizo citrange CC ), were watered with increasing concentrations , phytochelatin PC glutathione GSH content measured. Both genotypes able synthesise s response metal...
In saffron (Crocus sativus), new corms develop at the base of every shoot developed from maternal corm, a globular underground storage stem. Since degree bud sprouts influences number and size corms, strigolactones (SLs) suppress growth pre-formed axillary bud, it was considered appropriate to investigate SL involvement in physiology molecular biology saffron. We focused on two genes within pathway, CCD7 CCD8, encoding carotenoid cleavage enzymes required for production SLs. The CsCCD7...
Climate change is altering the environment in which plants grow and survive. An increase worldwide Earth surface temperatures has been already observed, together with an intensity of other abiotic stress conditions such as water deficit, high salinity, heavy metal intoxication, etc., generating harmful that destabilize agricultural systems. Stress deeply affect physiological, metabolic morphological traits plant roots, essential organs for survival they provide physical anchorage to soil,...
The effect of increased Cd2+ concentrations in the watering solution on citrus physiology was studied by using two genotypes, Cleopatra mandarin and Carrizo citrange. Cadmium content roots leaves tested together with measurements leaf damage, gas exchange parameters, hormonal contents. Citrus efficiently retained avoiding its translocation to shoots translocated less than Carrizo. With increasing concentration all parameters were decreased more mandarin. Cd-induced increases abscisic acid...
Introduction Citrus productivity has been decreasing in the last decade Mediterranean basin as a consequence of climate change and high levels salinity found aquifers. varieties are cultivated grafted onto rootstock, which reported responsible for plant tolerance to adverse situations. However, other important factors stress relying scion have less studied. The aim this study was evaluate effect on citrus salt stress. Methods Four different rootstock/scion combinations were subjected 30...
An experiment in this study was designed to investigate the effect of different concentrations Zn2+ or Pb2+ (0, 200, 400 and 600 μM) with NaCl 200 mM), on morphological physiological parameters as well antioxidative response halophytic species Atriplex halimus. Results showed that had no significant impact biomass production while significantly affected plant development mainly at high concentration, μM. Total chlorophyll content did not change under elevation when compared control. However,...
