Interactive Effects of PEG-induced Water Stress and CaCl2 on the Status of Calcium and Ca2+ Binding Proteins During Seedling Growth of Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) Cultivars
Abstract:Seedlings of two peanut cultivars (TPT-l and TPT-4) grown in distilled water for 12 d were subjected to polyethylene glycal (PEG-6000) induced water stress. Twenty mM CaCl z was added to the stressed seedlings to examine the ameliorative effect of PEG induced water stress. The seedlings were analysed for calcium content at 2-d intervals for 7 d. Calcium-binding proteins (CaBPs) were quantified in the seedlings of different treatments in the two cultivars. Water stressed seedlings had significantly lower calciu… Show more
