| Abstract | Combined stress of salinity and heavy metal is a serious problem for crop production; however, physiological mechanisms of tolerance to such condition remain elusive in cotton. Here, we used two cotton genotypes differing in salt tolerance, to understand their response to salinity (NaCl) and cadmium (Cd) either alone or in combination (Cd + Na) via hydroponics. Results showed that salinity and/or Cd drastically reduced plant growth, chlorophyll content and photosynthesis, with greater effect observed in Zhongmian 41 (sensitive) than Zhong 9806 (tolerant). Although salinity and/or Cd induced malondialdehyde (MDA) accumulation in Zhongmian 41 at 5 and 10 days after treatment, MDA content remained unchanged in Zhong 9806, implying that Zhongmian 41 but not Zhong 9806 faced oxidative stress following exposure to salinity and/or Cd. Differential responses of antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase, guaiacol peroxidase, catalase and ascorbate peroxidase to Cd, NaCl and Cd + Na indicate genotype- and time course- dependent variations. In both genotypes, Cd content was decreased while Na concentration was increased under combined stress compared with Cd alone. Importantly, NaCl addition in Cd-containing medium caused remarkable reduction in Cd concentration, with the extent of reduction being also dependent on genotypes. The salt-tolerant genotypes had lower Na concentration than sensitive ones. Furthermore, obvious changes in leaf and root ultrastructure was observed under Cd, Na and Cd + Na stress, however Zhong 9806 was less affected compared with Zhongmian 41. These results may provide novel insight into the physiological mechanisms of Cd + Na stress tolerance in various cotton genotypes. |

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.
