screening potato cultivars and wild species to abiotic stresses using an electrolyte leakage bioassay
نویسندگان
چکیده
ten solanum tuberosum cultivars and accessions from 11 wild solanum species were evaluated for their tolerance to salt (200 mm nacl or 100 mm na2so4), drought (35% peg), cold (-4ºc) and heat (37ºc). evaluation was based on electrolyte leakage from de-tached leaves of in vitro plantlets. testing involved a rinsing treatment with three changes of distilled water to remove electrolytes from leaf and petiole surfaces, an exposure period of 24 hours for salt and peg stress and four hours for temperature stress and a rehydra-tion period of 24 hours in distilled water followed by measurement of electrical conductiv-ity into distilled water to determine the effects of stress. significant differences were ob-served between solanum genotypes for all types of stresses. among the s. tuberosum culti-vars, stress tolerance was great to nacl and peg in alpha and bintje; to na2so4 in agria and to heat and cold in norland. among the wild species, tolerance to all stresses was great in s. demissum, to all stresses except heat in s. acaule and to heat and cold in s. commersonii. the correlations among types of stress tolerance were significant for all stresses except for heat and drought. the level of tolerance in some wild species was sig-nificantly greater compared with the cultivars tested. there appears to be a wide genetic base available to improve the stress tolerance of cultivated potato.

In order to investigate the responses of potato plantlets under in vitro conditions to osmotic and temperature stresses, a factorial experiment was carried out in a completely randomized design with three replications. Each replicate contained a glass jar with 5 explants grown in it. The first...
متن کاملTrehalose biosynthesis in response to abiotic stresses.
Trehalose is a non-reducing disaccharide that is present in diverse organisms ranging from bacteria and fungi to invertebrates, in which it serves as an energy source, osmolyte or protein/membrane protectant. The occurrence of trehalose and trehalose biosynthesis pathway in plants has been discovered recently. Multiple studies have revealed regulatory roles of trehalose-6-phosphate, a precursor...

Various abiotic stresses such as drought, high salinity, high temperature, and low temperature negatively impact plant growth and productivity of crops. Plants have adapted to respond to these stresses at the molecular, cellular, physiological, and biochemical level, enabling them to survive. Various adverse environmental stresses induce the expression of a variety of genes in many plant specie...
