drought stress effects on photosynthesis, chlorophyll fluorescence and photosynthetic pigments in chickpea (cicer arietinum l.) genotypes
Authors
abstract
in order to evaluate of physiological traits, related to drought tolerance, an experiment was carried out in controlled condition. the experiment was conducted to assess the effect of drought stress on photosynthesis, chlorophyll fluorescence and photosynthetic pigments in two tolerant genotypes (mcc392 & mcc877) and two susceptible genotypes (mcc68 & mcc448) were grown in drought stress (25% field capacity) and control (field capacity) conditions in the seedling, early flowering and podding stages and so evaluated base on factorial experiment based on completely randomized design with four replications. drought stress significantly decreased co2 assimilation rate (a), transpiration rate (e), and psιι photochemical efficiency (fv/fm) in all genotypes. drought stress increased chl b in all investigated stages. in all investigated stages, water use efficiency (wue), a and fv/fm were higher in tolerant genotypes than that of susceptible genotypes under drought stress. our results indicated that water use efficiency, a and fv/fm could be useful markers in the studies of tolerance to drought stress and screening of adapted cultivars of chickpea under drought stress.

GENETIC DIVERGENCE IN CHICKPEA (Cicer arietinum L.)
Genetic diversity of 27 chickpea genotypes was studied through Mahalanobis D and Principal Component analysis. The genotypes under study fall into five clusters. The cluster II contained the highest number of genotypes (11) and Cluster I contained the lowest. Cluster I produced the highest mean value for number of pods per plant. The inter cluster distances were much higher than the intra clust...

Water stress is one of the major abiotic stresses in agriculture worldwide. In order to assess photosynthesis response and grain yield of 25 wheat genotypes under water deficit (post-anthesis stress) conditions, a 2-year study (2010-12) was carried out as a split-plot arrangement using randomized complete block design with three replications. The most sensitive gas exchange variable to water de...

Chickpea is the second most important legume crop largely grown under semi-arid tropics where terminal drought is one of the major constraints for its productivity. A trait-based selection had been considered more beneficial in drought tolerance breeding to overcome the environmental influence on drought yields. Large number of traits had been suggested in literature, with less indication on th...

The availability of iron for roots has been demonstrated as a critical factor in plant production. The addition of synthetic iron chelates to soil is a common practice in agriculture, which is not economically beneficial. Besides, chemical iron fertilizers cause many problems such as food contamination and environmental pollution. Development of natural Ferrioxamine B as an efficient and safe i...
