| Abstract | The relic endemic nature of Haberlea rhodopensis, which grows in Balkan Peninsula, in combination with its high vegetative desiccation-tolerance, makes this species a good model to study mechanisms behind plant adaptation to severe drought stress. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antioxidant protection provided by Superoxide dismutase (SOD) and Peroxidase (PO) in H. rhodopensis after exposure to and recovery from dehydration at different developmental stages. During dehydration the electrolyte leakage from leaf tissue increased more significantly in post-flowering plants than in flowering plants, while upon subsequent rehydration this parameter showed a very fast decrease to the basic value of fresh leaves and did not depend on developmental stage. Like other higher plant species, SOD and PO demonstrated in H. rhodopensis an ability to adjust their activity very promptly to changing water supply. In addition, the leaves of this resurrection species retained significant activities of SOD and PO even in air-dried state, considered as the most severe form of water stress. The enhanced activity of antioxidant enzymes may either enable the scavenging of the active oxygen species produced at very severe water deficit, and/or carry a potential for resurrection on subsequent rehydration. Upon stress treatment total activities of both enzymes were higher in flowering than post-flowering plants which reveals that developmental stage might be a factor affecting plant stress tolerance. This work identified for the first time SOD isoforms of H. rhodopensis. Native PAGE showed at least six multiple isoforms in the protein extract from leaf tissue of flowering plants, and the differential visualization revealed that four of them were Cu, Zn-SOD isoforms, one was Mn-SOD and one Fe-SOD. These findings provide a good starting point for future study of the SOD gene family of this rare resurrection plant at the molecular level. |

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.
