Abstract

Drought stress is a major constraint for crop production to the world. Plants response to drought stress by different adaptation and metabolic alternations. A bag culture experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of Different Day Interval Drought (DID) stress on biochemical and compatible solute accumulation of Paspalum scrobiculatum (L.). The P. scrobiculatum variety CO- 1 and CO - 3 were obtained from Tamilnadu Agricultural University (TNAU), Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu and India. The plants were exposed to 3, 4, 5 and 6DID stress from 20 to 60 Days after sowing (DAS) plants. Irrigation at one day interval was kept as control. The plant sample were collected on 40, 60 and 80 DAS and estimate the biochemical contents like protein, proline, amino acid, glycine betane, total sugar and sucrose were analyzed. Drought stress significantly increased in biochemical contents like proline, amino acid, glycine betaine, total sugar and sucrose content but, the protein content were decreased. These results are indicate that plants are altering their osmoregulation and to balance the water content by lowering the water potential. From the results of this investigation it is clear that the CO - 3 variety were more tolerance then CO - 1 variety plants.
