Abstract:
:Aluminum (Al) toxicity is a serious problem for rice crop productivity in acidic soils worldwide. The present work was conducted to look out for the alteration in ROS homeostasis; metabolic fingerprint; and morphology in two contrasting Indica rice cultivars of North East India (NE India) to Al toxicity. Al stress led to excess accumulation of ROS (H2O2 and O2-), and this in turn induced ROS mediated cellular damage, as indicated by lipid peroxidation both qualitatively as well as quantitatively. This excessive ROS production also led to significant reduction in chlorophyll content and stomatal conductance. This was followed by the loss of photosynthetic efficiency as detected by chlorophyll fluorescence. This excessive damage due to ROS prompted us to check the anti-oxidative machinery. Antioxidants, especially enzymes (SOD, APX, POX, GR, CAT, DHAR, MDHAR) are very important players in maintenance of ROS homeostasis. In tolerant variety Disang, higher activity of these enzymes and vice versa in sensitive variety, was observed in response to Al treatment. The non-enzymatic antioxidants (proline, ascorbate and glutathione) also showed similar trend. Though the tolerant variety showed strong anti-oxidative machinery, it was unable to completely nullify the stress experienced by the seedlings. Organic acids are also important players in detoxification of Al stress through efflux in the rhizosphere. In tolerant genotype, citrate exudate was found to be more when compared to sensitive genotypes on exposure to high dose of Al. This is supported by higher abundance of FRDL4, a citrate transporter. Not only FRDL4, other stakeholders for Al stress response like ART1 and ALS1 depicted prominent transcript abundance in the tolerant variety. In conclusion, through this study detailed physiological and metabolic characterisation of two contrasting Indica rice varieties Disang and Joymati, native to NE India for Al tolerance was performed for the very first time.
