Open publisher page 6 citations

Abstract

Pennisetum plants were grown with NaCl and CaCl in order to study the effect of CaCl on 22 NaCl induced oxidative stress in terms of lipid peroxidation (TBARS content), H O content and antioxidant 22 enzyme activities. The plants were treated with solutions of 100 mM NaCl, 100 mM NaCl with 5 mM CaCl2 and 5 mM CaCl alone. Groundwater was used for irrigation of control plants. Plants were uprooted randomly 2 on 40 days after sowing (DAS). NaCl-stressed plants showed increased TBARS, H O , when compared to 22 control. The antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POX) and catalase (CAT) were increased under salinity and further enhanced due to CaCl treatment. 2
