| Abstract | Cotton is mostly cultivated under rain-fed conditions in India, thus faces frequent drought conditions during its life cycle. Drought being a major stress factor responsible for yield penalty, there has always been a high priority to generate knowledge on adaptation and tolerance of cotton. In the present study, four cotton varieties, JKC-770 and KC-2 (Gossypium hirsutum), and JKC-717 and RAHS-187(Gossypium herbaceum), were imposed to drought. Under drought condition, differential changes in physiological characters like net photosynthesis, transpiration, stomatal conductance, chlorophyll fluorescence, relative water content (RWC), and predawn water potential (ψ 0) showed a change. While proline, malondialdehyde (MDA), and glutathione-S-transferase (GST) content increased along with a concomitant change in the expression of their associated genes. Under moderate stress, tolerant varieties maintain lower ψ 0 probably due to higher proline content as compared to sensitive varieties. Cyclic electron flow (CEF) also plays an important role in tolerance under mild water stress in G. hirsutum varieties. CEF not only activates at high light but also initiates at a very low light intensity. Expression analysis of genes reveals that drought-tolerant varieties showed enhanced detoxifying mechanism by up-regulation of asparagine synthase (AS), glutathione-S-transferase (GST), and methyl glyoxalase (GlyI) genes under drought stress. Up-regulation of Δ1-pyrroline-5-carboxylase synthase (Δ1P5CS) enhanced accumulation of proline, an osmolyte, under drought in tolerant varieties. While the drought-sensitive varieties showed up-regulation of ethylene responsive factor (ERF) and down-regulation of WRKY70 responsible for senescence of the leaf which correlated well with the high rate of leaf fall in sensitive varieties under water stress. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
