@article{Sarkar_Chakraborty_Chakraborty_2016, title={Temperature Stress Induced Antioxidative and Biochemical Changes in Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Cultivars}, volume={2}, url={https://www.updatepublishing.com/journal/index.php/jpsp/article/view/3076}, DOI={10.19071/jpsp.2016.v2.3076}, abstractNote={<span lang="EN-IN">The aim of this study is to understand the effect of elevated temperature on wheat seedlings of four cultivars, Gayetri (GY), Gandhari (GN), Kedar (KD), PBW343 in terms of  tolerance/susceptibility , along with antioxidative and biochemical responses. For this, seedlings of four cultivars were exposed to different temperatures ranging from 25-40<sup>0</sup>C for six hours. According to heat susceptibility index calculated GN was found to be heat tolerant, PBW343 heat sensitive and the other two, GY and KD moderately tolerant.  Exposure to high temperature led to gradual increase in membrane lipid peroxidation and hydrogen peroxide accumulation. H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> and malonaldehyde accumulated to much higher amount in leaf tissues of PBW343 and GY than GN and KD. Among antioxidative enzymes, catalase, glutathione reductase and ascorbate peroxidase activity initially increased at 35<sup>0</sup>C, followed by reduced activity under heat stress in all cultivars. However, peroxidase activity continued to increase under heat stress. Total chlorophyll and non enzymatic antioxidant carotenoids, initially increased upto 30<sup>0</sup>C, following which there was gradual decrease in these components. Compatible osmolytes - proline and total sugar level within cellular compartments were enhanced upto 35<sup>0</sup>C. Results suggested that wheat can endure heat induced oxidative stress up to certain period, manifested by elevation of non enzymatic antioxidants and osmo protectants, as well as upregulation of antioxidative enzymes.</span>}, journal={Journal of Plant Stress Physiology}, author={Sarkar, Jayanwita and Chakraborty, Bishwanath and Chakraborty, Usha}, year={2016}, month={Aug.}, pages={22–30} }
