Redox homeostasis, antioxidant defense, and methylglyoxal detoxification as markers for salt tolerance in Pokkali rice

Abstract: To identify biochemical markers for salt tolerance, two contrasting cultivars of rice (Oryza sativa L.) differing in salt tolerance were analyzed for various parameters. Pokkali, a salt-tolerant cultivar, showed considerably lower level of H(2)O(2) as compared to IR64, a sensitive cultivar, and such a physiology may be ascribed to the higher activity of enzymes in Pokkali, which either directly or indirectly are involved in the detoxification of H(2)O(2). Enzyme activities and the isoenzyme pattern of antioxid… Show more

“…Research findings have demonstrated that GSH acts as a methylglyoxal detoxifier that confers salt stress tolerance (Singla-Pareek et al 2003). An experiment by El-Shabrawi et al (2010) conducted with Pokkali (salt tolerant) and IR64 (salt sensitive) rice cultivars, indicated that the GSH level and both Gly I and II activities were significantly higher in Pokkali than in IR64. When both cultivars were exposed to salt stress, Pokkali showed higher GSH/GSSG ratio and ascorbate (AsA)/dehydroascorbate (DHA) ratio, together with higher activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POX), and GPX, when compared to IR64.…”

“…The concentration of ROSs is maintained at non-toxic levels by means of antioxidant mechanisms to avoid damages (Moller;Jensen;Hansson, 2007), and plants respond to the increase of ROSs with acceleration of enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant processes (Alscher, Erturk;Health, 2002). Plants developed a complex antioxidant system for restricting the harmful effects of the ROSs (El-Shabrawi et al, 2010), which constitutes the primary defense against free radicals generated under stress conditions. For example, the superoxide dismutase (SOD) enzyme catalyzes dismutation of the superoxide radical (O 2…”

“…As plantas evoluíram um complexo sistema antioxidante para conter os efeitos deletérios das EROs (El-Shabrawi et al, 2010). Condições ambientais estressantes, tais como déficit hídrico, salinidade e calor, causam desbalanço entre produção e remoção das EROs; assim, o saldo final pode ser uma elevação dos níveis de EROs e, consequentemente, o estresse oxidativo, que leva à redução na produtividade dos vegetais (Vaidyanathan et al, 2003;Guo et al, 2006).…”
