Abstract

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) plants were subjected to mild water stress during grain filling at milk (early, medium, and late) and dough (early, soft, hard) stages. The grains harvested from stressed plants were subjected to low temperature stress of 10 °C for 24 h in presence or absence of 1 mM CaCl2, and embryos were examined for oxidative injury. The embryos of grains water stressed at milk and soft dough stages showed lowest contents of H2O2 and malondialdehyde and highest membrane stability index, ascorbic acid content, and activities of catalase, ascorbate peroxidase, and superoxide dismutase as compared to control embryos or water-stressed at other stages. Presence of Ca2+ in the medium reduced H2O2 and malondialdehyde content and increased ascorbic acid content, and catalase, ascorbate peroxidase and superoxide dismutase activities.
