| Abstract | In the present study, two genotypes each of maize and rice were compared for their response to varying degrees of temperature stress (35/30, 40/35, 45/40°C) with controls growing at 30/25°C. At elevated temperatures of 40/35 and 45/40°C, the rice genotypes were inhibited to a significantly higher extent, especially for their shoot growth compared to maize genotypes. The stress injury measured as damage to membranes, loss of chlorophyll and reduction in leaf water status was significantly higher in rice plants, especially at 45/40°C. The components of oxidative stress particularly the level of malondialdehyde was significantly greater in rice plants while the differences for hydrogen peroxide concentrations were small at 40/35 and 45/40°C. The expression of enzymatic antioxidants like catalase, ascorbate peroxidase and glutathione reductase was found to be higher in maize plants compared to rice plants while no variations existed for superoxide dismutase at 45/40°C. In addition, the non-enzymatic antioxidants like ascorbic acid, glutathione and proline were maintained at significantly greater levels at 45/40°C in maize than in rice genotypes. These findings suggested that maize genotypes were able to retain their growth under high-temperature conditions partly due to their superior ability to cope up with oxidative damage by heat stress compared to rice genotypes. Since, maize and rice belong to C$_{4}$ and C$_{3}$ plant groups, respectively, these observations may also reflect the relative sensitivity of these plant groups to heat 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.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
