Exogenous Application

Brassinosteroids (BRs) are plant hormones that play an essential role in plant development and have the ability to protect plants against various environmental stresses, such as low and high temperature, drought, heat, salinity, heavy metal toxicity, and pesticides. Mitigation of stress effects are produced through independent mechanisms or by interaction with other important phytohormones. However, there are few studies in which this property has been reported for BRs analogs. Thus, in this work, the enhancement of drought stress tolerance of A. thaliana was assessed for a series of 2-deoxybrassinosteroid analogs. In addition, the growth-promoting activity in the Rice Lamina Inclination Test (RLIT) was also evaluated. The results show that analog 1 exhibits similar growth activity as brassinolide (BL; used as positive control) in the RLIT bioassay. Interestingly, both compounds increase their activities by a factor of 1.2–1.5 when they are incorporated to polymer micelles formed by Pluronic F-127. On the other hand, tolerance to water deficit stress of Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings was evaluated by determining survival rate and dry weight of seedlings after the recovery period. In both cases, the effect of analog 1 is higher than that exhibited by BL. Additionally, the expression of a subset of drought stress marker genes was evaluated in presence and absence of exogenous applied BRs. Results obtained by qRT-PCR analysis, indicate that transcriptional changes of AtDREBD2A and AtNCED3 genes were more significant in A. thaliana treated with analog 1 in homogeneous solution than in that treated with BL. These changes suggest the activation of alternative pathway in response to water stress deficit. Thus, exogenous application of BRs synthetic analogs could be a potential tool for improvement of crop production under stress conditions.

Wheat Genotypes

The performance of twenty wheat genotypes under Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) induced water stress during germination and early seedling growth stages were tested under three levels of water potential i) Control (Tap water), ii) -2 bars and iii) -4 bar at the Crop Physiology and Ecology Laboratory of Hajee Mohammad Danesh Science and Technology University, Dinajpur during September 2014 to October 2014. Rate of germination and vigor index of all wheat genotypes were delayed with the increment of water stress induced by PEG. Shoot and root lengths and seedling dry weight of 10 days old seedlings were found to be reduced due to the increment of water stress. However, the degree of reduction of these parameters with the increment of water stress was not similar for all wheat genotypes. Stress tolerance index (STI) based on seedling dry weight indicated a wide difference in stress tolerance among the wheat genotypes. At moderate water deficit stress, BARI Gom 25, E 34, E 28 and BAW 1170 showed more stress tolerance and the wheat genotypes- Sourav, E 23 and BAW 1140 showed greater stress sensitivity than the other wheat genotypes. At higher water deficit stress, BARI Gom 25, BARI Gom 28, E 28 and BAW 1170 showed more stress tolerance and the wheat genotypes- Satabdi, Sourav, BARI Gom 26, E 23, E 38, E 24, BAW 1163, BAW 1140 and BAW 1151 showed greater stress sensitivity than the others. Considering both moderate and high water deficit stress, BARI Gom 25, E 28 and BAW 1170 were found as tolerant and Sourav, E 23 and BAW 1140 were found as water deficit stress sensitive wheat genotypes.

In Mediterranean environments, water-deficit stress that occurs before anthesis significantly limits durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. ssp. durum) production. Stress tolerant and stress sensitive durum varieties exhibit genotypic differences in their response to pre-anthesis water-deficit stress as reflected by yield performance, but our knowledge of the mechanisms underlying tolerance is limited. We have previously identified stress responsive durum microRNAs (miRNAs) that could contribute to water-deficit stress tolerance by mediating post-transcriptional silencing of genes that lead to stress adaptation (e.g. miR160 and its targets ARF8 (auxin response factor 8) and ARF18). However, the temporal regulation pattern of miR160-ARFs after induction of pre-anthesis water-deficit stress in sensitive and tolerant varieties remains unknown. Here, the physiological responses of four durum genotypes are described by chlorophyll content, leaf relative water content, and stomatal conductance at seven time-points during water-deficit stress from booting to anthesis. qPCR examination of miR160, ARF8 and ARF18 at these time-points revealed a complex stress responsive regulatory pattern, in the flag leaf and the head, subject to genotype. Harvest components and morphological traits measured at maturity confirmed the stress tolerance level of these four varieties for agronomic performance, and their potential association with the physiological responses. In general, the distinct regulatory pattern of miR160-ARFs among stress tolerant and sensitive durum varieties suggests that miRNA-mediated molecular pathways may contribute to the genotypic differences in the physiological traits, ultimately affecting yield components (e.g. the maintenance of harvest index and grain number).
