Abstract
Owing to global climate changes, periods of soil drought or waterlogging occur. Each of these factors causes negative effects on plant physiological processes and growth. Weeds are another factor that limits plant productivity. The main task of this study is to investigate the physiological reactions of triticale to herbicide treatment and subsequent drought or waterlogging. Young triticale plants were treated with Serrate® (selective herbicide produced by Syngenta) and exposed for 7 days to drought or waterlogging. Plant growth, chlorophyll and carotenoids content, the net photosynthesis rate and chlorophyll a fluorescence were measured during the stress period and after 4 days of plant recovery. Herbicide by itself did not induce considerable changes in the abovementioned parameters during the stress period. Serrate® did not affect strongly the efficiency of the photosynthetic machinery under harsh conditions. A significant reduction in fresh weight (85%), water content (93%), net photosynthesis rate, chlorophyll a fluorescence indices Fv/Fm and Fv/F0, and leaf pigments (58% for chlorophyll a, 53% for chlorophyll b, and 45% for carotenoids) was found because of drought. Waterlogging also influenced negatively these parameters but to a smaller extent. After resuming the normal irrigation, the photosynthesis and chlorophyll a fluorescence tended to increase and showed signs of recovery. The comparative analysis of growth and photosynthetic parameters demonstrated that triticale plants subjected to waterlogging could recover to a higher degree than those exposed to drought.
