Changes in antioxidant levels in Oryza sativa L. roots subjected to NaCl-salinity stress

Abstract: Imposition of NaCl-salinity stress induced oxidative reactions in root tissue of rice seedlings. A uniform accumulation of proline was marked with the increasing NaC1 concentrations. Both peroxide content and lipid peroxidation level (MDA) increased with the salt treatment from the control. CAT, GPx and SOD activities decreased with the increasing NaC1 concentrations suggesting a possible oxidative damage to root tissue.

“…Such observation was described in leaves of tomato [49,50], sugar [51], sesame [52], plantain [53] and rice [54] and in the roots of rice [55]. Increase in H 2 O 2 and TBARS in response to salt stress was observed in wheat [56], rice [57] and tomato [58,59]. Regarding these results we conclude that lupine embryo axes experienced oxidative stress and a transient increase in TBARS was a consequence of salt shock occurring in first hours of NaCl treatment.…”

“…Proline accumulation may also help in nonenzymic free radical detoxifications [18; 7, 13]. Increasing proline level is considered to help the cells in osmoprotection as well as in regulating the redox potential, scavenging hydroxyl radicals and gives the protection against denaturation of various macromolecules [13]. In the present context, a uniform increase in the proline level was noticed in 9 and 11 days old rice seedlings subjected to Cr +6 (100 µM) treatment.…”

“…Bioinfo Publications Proline accumulation is an important parameter to recognize the stress impact on plants [14,24]. For example, stress induced proline biosynthesis was observed in many plants in response to salt stress [13,16]. Proline accumulation may also help in nonenzymic free radical detoxifications [18; 7, 13].…”

“…In addition to having a role as an osmolyte, proline is able to increase stability and solidity of the membrane in different situations as an enzymatic protector. Also, accumulation of proline has a non-enzymatic role in detoxification of free radicals (Khan et al, 2002). It seems increasing in proline concentration is not the reason for salt 4.531** 3.174** 3.171** T ** And ns represent significant at 1% and non-significant, respectively Fig.…”
