| Abstract | Hydrogen sulfide (H$_{2}$S) which is involved in plant growth, development, and the acquisition of stress tolerance including heat tolerance, is considered as the third signal molecule after nitric oxide and reactive oxygen species, while betaine is an important osmolyte with multiple physiological functions, but interaction between H$_{2}$S and betaine in the acquisition of heat tolerance in plants is not clear. In this study, pretreatment with H$_{2}$S donor sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS), as comparison to the control seedlings without NaHS treatment, significantly improved the activity of betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase (BADH), a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of betaine, which in turn induced the accumulation of endogenous betaine, eventually enhanced the survival percentage of maize seedlings under heat stress. In contrast, these effects induced by NaHS were eliminated by application of H$_{2}$S scavenger hypotaurine and inhibitor of BADH disulfiram, respectively, indicating that H$_{2}$S-improved heat tolerance of maize seedlings may be closely associated with the accumulation of endogenous betaine by activating the activity of BADH. In addition, exogenous betaine treatment enhanced the content of endogenous betaine, followed by improved the survival percentage of maize seedlings compared with the control without betaine treatment. All of the above-mentioned results showed that NaHS pretreatment could induce the accumulation of endogenous betaine by increasing BADH activity, and this accumulation may be involved in the acquisition of heat tolerance of maize seedlings, bridging a gap between H$_{2}$S and betaine in the acquisition of heat tolerance in plants. |

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.
