چکیده

zagros (drought tolerant) and pishtaz (drought susceptible) cultivars were classified on the basis of shoot dry weight and were used as plant material in this study. total chlorophyll, carotenoids, antocyanins, proline, soluble sugar contents, lipid peroxidation, antioxidant enzyme activities and protein patterns were determined. seedlings of wheat genotypes were grown in nutrient solution cultures under 16 h d-1 period at room temperature. with the decrease in osmotic potential, total chlorophyll initially increased but then decreased in the tolerant cultivar. the amount of total carotenoids and antocyanins in both cultivars increased in response to drought stress. however, the increase was only significant (p< 0.05) at some osmotic potentials. the increase was more pronounced in the tolerant cultivar. soluble sugars and proline increased significantly in both cultivars, but were higher in the tolerant one. the sensitive cultivar showed higher rates of lipid peroxidation as compared to the tolerant cultivar. antioxidant enzymes activities increased with the decrease in osmotic potential in both cultivars. the tolerant cultivar exhibited a higher antioxidant activity compared to the sensitive one. sds-page showed new protein bands under water stress. these results indicated that proline, soluble sugars contents and antioxidant enzyme activities are part of the defense mechanisms which confer water deficit tolerance to wheat cultivars. apx= ascorbate peroxidase; cat= catalase; gr= glutathione reductase; mda= malondialdehyde; ros= reactive oxygen species, sod= superoxide dismutase.

Assessment of Root Growth and Physiological Responses of Four Bread Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Cultivars to Salinity Stress

Enlarged root systems that extend into the salt affected soil improve water and nutrient capture by plants and can increase plant productivity. In order to examine root system characteristics of four bread wheat cultivars contrasting in salt tolerance (Arg, Ofoq, Tajan and Morvarid) a greenhouse experiment was conducted with applying two salinity levels (0 and 150 mM NaCl) on plants grown in PV...

Phenotyping, association analysis and annotation of genes related to leaf wilting of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) at the seedling stage under drought stress conditions

Rapid screening of plant germplasm in the early stages of growth and determining the genetic basis of wheat leaf wilting index at the seedling stage is necessary for wheat breeding programs. In the present research, leaf wilting index for 290 Iranian bread wheat genotypes, including; 90 cultivars and 200 landraces were studied under drought stress conditions at the seedling stage in 2021 in res...

Physiological assessment of drought tolerance in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) varieties under moisture stress conditions

Drought is one of the major limiting factors in wheat production in Pakistan. Five commercial wheat varieties; Chakwal-97, Inqilab-91, Margalla-99, NR-234 and Wafaq2001 were grown in pots in glasshouse. Plants were subjected to three consecutive drought cycles at tillering, pre-anthesis and milky growth stages by withholding water till leaf rolling started. Measurements of physiological respons...

Physiological responses of two wheat cultivars to soil drought.

Young plants of the two wheat cultivars Katya and Prelom, differing in their reaction to drought in the field, were grown in soil in pots, and their water status was assessed as well as the intensity of gas exchange, chlorophyll fluorescence, and accumulation of compatible solutes and hydrogen peroxide after 7 days of dehydration. It was established that cv. Katya displayed markedly better tole...

Effect of Cadmium on Seed Germination and Seedling Growth of Four Wheat (triticum Aestivum L.) Cultivars

Cadmium (Cd) is extremely toxic metal and reduces plant growth. Therefore, study was conducted to evaluate the effect of various Cd levels 0, 5, 20, 50 and 80 mg L on seed germination and seedling growth of four wheat cultivars (Sehar-06, Fareed-06, Inqlab-91, Chakwal-50). Cadmium showed toxicity at 5 mg L in case of root and shoot growth whereas 20 mg L in case of seed germination and germinat...

Vernalisation Response of Some Winter Wheat Cultivars (Triticum aestivum L.)

For 17 cultivars of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) different vernalisation and photoperiod responses were detected. The effect of photoperiod sensitivity was not significantly changed by vernalisation; different vernalisation responses were probably due to the presence of multiple alleles at Vrn loci. The delay in heading depended on the vernalisation deficit exponentially: y = parameter (...
