Effect of water deficit on proline accumulation, protein and chlorophyll content during flowering and seed formation in winter rape (Brassica napus L. var. oleifera)

Abstract: Water deficit affecting winter rape plants during flowering and seed formation caused metabolic responses characteristic for drought. Proline accumulation took place in the leaves, the inflorescences and in the siliques. Protein content during flowering and seed formation was reduced in all rape organs except leaves in the latter stage. The decrease of chlorophyll content in the leaves was greater during the period of seed formation than during flowering

“…Similarly, proline content in tomato flowers was 60 times higher than any other vegetative tissue and >70% of total free amino acids was noticed in pollen grains ( Schwacke et al, 1999 ). A wide range of plants like mature fruits of citrus ( Clements and Leland, 1962 ), pollen grains of petunia and tomato ( Zhang et al, 1982 ; Fujita et al, 1998 ), ovules of broad bean ( Venekamp and Koot, 1984 ), inflorescences and siliques of Brassica napus ( Flasinski and Rogozinska, 1985 ) also contain very high levels of proline. Accumulation of proline is due to upregulation of proline biosynthetic pathway gene P5CS , downregulation of ProDH and activation of a proline transporter T ( ProT ) in flowers ( Savoure et al, 1995 ; Rentsch et al, 1996 ; Schwacke et al, 1999 ; Hayashi et al, 2000 ).…”
