Physiological and antioxidant responses of germinating Cicer arietinum seeds to salt stress

Abstract: Cicer arietinum (gram) is an important protein rich pulse crop in Indian subcontinent, the Med iterranean region, Ethiopia, and Mexico. We studied the effects of different salt concentrations on radicle growth and different markers of oxidative stress, e.g., superoxide radical, MDA, protein carbonyls, as well as antioxidant compounds. Physiological and biochemical parameters were assessed in the radicles of germinat ing gram seeds after 1 and 7 days of treatments with 15, 30, 45, and 60 mM NaCl. The results sh… Show more

“…The lipid peroxidation of the seeds were expressed as malondialdehyde (MDA) content, that was determined by the TBARS method (BUEGE & AUST, 1978;MA et al, 2007;MEI et al, 2010;YANG et al, 2010;KAUR et al, 2012;KESHAVKANT et al, 2012). Samples of seeds within each progeny (100mg fresh matter) were homogenized in 5.0mL trichloroacetic acid (TCA) 0.1% (p/v) at the presence of polyvinylpolypyrholidon (PVPP) at the proportion of 1:1.5 (PMF:PVPP).…”
