Improvisation of salinity stress response in mung bean through solid matrix priming with normal and nano-sized chitosan

摘要: Nano particles open up a new avenue in crop science because of their unique physicochemical properties. Chitosan is preferred as priming agent nano-form due to its biodegradability and non toxicity. Prepared nano-chitosan was characterized by Dynamic light scattering study, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy study scanning electron microscopy. In present the morphological, physiological biochemical responses with an emphasis on several oxidative stress markers like proline, malondialdehyde (MDA), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) contents mung bean seedlings 0, 4 8 dS/m salt conditions after Solid Matrix Priming (SMP) using elicitors nano-chitosan, chitosan water were studied. The activities different antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase, catalase H2O2 MDA increased considerably over control accordance gradient. However, SMP showed significant improvement showing reduction leading better growth, chlorophyll content metabolism. Thus, our shows that both normal nano sized will be able overcome adverse effect allowing activation defense mechanisms for protection against stress.
