A assimilação de nitrogênio é um processo vital que controla o crescimento e desenvolvimento da planta, garantindo bons níveis de produtividade de grãos. A enzima nitrato redutase (NR) catalisa o primeiro passo enzimático da assimilação de nitrogênio pelas plantas superiores por meio da redução do nitrato (NO3-) a nitrito (NO2-).  Assim, objetivou-se estudar a atividade da enzima redutase do nitrato em genótipos de arroz de terras altas e correlacioná-la com os demais caracteres agronômicos. O experimento foi conduzido em dois ambientes distintos, com e sem irrigação suplementar. As análises de atividade enzimática foram realizadas em laboratório. Foram avaliados 20 genótipos de um experimento de VCU na safra 2014/2015. O delineamento experimental foi em blocos casualizados com três repetições. Foi obtida a quantidade de nitrito liberado pelos tecidos vegetais na solução de incubação (µmoles NO2- gmf -1 h-1) em sete coletas realizadas aos 7, 14, 21, 28, 45, 75 e 100 dias após emergência (DAE), sempre no período da manhã, em todas as parcelas. Diante dos resultados, observou-se que a atividade da enzima NR, na cultura do arroz, é dependente do genótipo, do período de desenvolvimento vegetal e das condições ambientais, sendo de maior expressão no início do ciclo da cultura e em ambientes sem a ocorrência de estresse hídrico. A atividade da enzima RN não deve ser utilizada isoladamente para seleção indireta no caráter produtividade na cultura do arroz de terras altas, é necessário avaliar outras características que complementem à seleção.Palavras-chave: Oryza sativa; nitrogênio; melhoramento de plantas; expressão enzimática. ACTIVITY OF THE NITRATE REDUCTASE ENZYME IN UPLAND RICE UNDER WATER STRESS CONDITIONS  ABSTRACT:Nitrogen uptake is a vital process that controls plant growth and development, ensuring great grain yield levels. The enzyme nitrate reductase (NR) catalyzes the first enzymatic step of nitrogen uptake by higher plants by reducing nitrate (NO3-) to nitrite (NO2-). Thus, the objective was to study the activity of nitrate reductase enzyme in upland rice genotypes and to correlate it with other agronomic traits. The experiment was conducted in two distinct environments, with and without supplemental irrigation. The enzymatic activity assays were performed in the laboratory. Twenty genotypes of a VCU experiment in the 2014/2015 crop were evaluated. The experimental design was in randomized blocks with three replications. The amount of nitrite released by the plant tissues in the incubation solution (µmoles NO2-gmf -1 h-1) was obtained in seven collections performed at 7, 14, 21, 28, 45, 75 and 100 days after emergence (DAE). always in the mornings, in all installments. Given the results, it was observed that the activity of NR enzyme in rice culture is dependent on genotype, plant development period and environmental conditions, being more expressive at the beginning of the crop cycle and in environments without occurrence of water stress. The activity of the RN enzyme should not be used alone for indirect selection in the productivity character in the upland rice crop, it is necessary to evaluate other characteristics that complement the selection.Keywords: Oryza sativa; nitrogen; plant breeding; enzymatic expression.

Abstract: The objective of this work was to evaluate the feasibility of using physiological parameters for water deficit tolerance, as an auxiliary method for selection of upland rice genotypes. Two experiments - with or without water deficit - were carried out in Porangatu, in the state of Goiás, Brazil; the water deficit experiment received about half of irrigation that was applied to the well-watered experiment. Four genotypes with different tolerance levels to water stress were evaluated. The UPLRI 7, B6144F-MR-6-0-0, and IR80312-6-B-3-2-B genotypes, under water stress conditions, during the day, showed lower stomatal diffusive resistance, higher leaf water potential, and lower leaf temperature than the control. These genotypes showed the highest grain yields under water stress conditions, which were 534, 601, and 636 kg ha-1, respectively, and did not differ significantly among them. They also showed lower drought susceptibility index than the other genotypes. 'BRS Soberana' (susceptible control) was totally unproductive under drought conditions. Leaf temperature is a easy-read parameter correlated to plant-water status, viable for selecting rice genotypes for water deficit tolerance.

Drought stress is a major constraint to the production and yield stability of crops. Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is considered as a drought-sensitive crop species. Within this species, there are considerable varietal differences in sensitivity to this environmental stress. An experiment was conducted at the laboratory of the Department of Agronomy, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Agricultural University (BSMRAU), Bangladesh during April to September 2016 to evaluate 100 rice genotypes for drought tolerance during germination and early seedling growth stage. The genotypes were tested against five levels of drought stress imposed by Polyethylene glycol 6000 (PEG-6000) @ 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20%. The experiment was laid out in a complete randomized design with four replications. The results showed that with increasing water stress, germination in all the genotypes decreased from 95.8% in control to 6.6 % in highest stress (20% PEG) level. Seedling height and dry weight also decreased in all rice genotypes with the increase in water stress level. Based on Standard Evaluation System (SES),18 genotypes were selected primarily. Among the 18 genotypes, Ratoil and Chinisakkar showed higher germination index, relative seedling height and relative seedling dry weight than the check drought tolerant BRRI dhan43 at 20% PEG. Beside these, performance of Kumridhan, Pusur and Somondori was also well at this level compared to BRRI dhan43. The genotypes Ratoil, Chinisakkar, Kumridhan, Pusur and Somondori showed the best performance under drought condition. The Agriculturists 2018; 16(1) 44-54
