| Abstract | Adaptive changes were studied comparatively in soybean and cotton grown in pots under four irrigation conditions i.e. normal irrigation (equal to the evapotranspiration of the crop), and 50%, 25% and 10% of the normal irrigation. In soybean, the maximum quantum yield of PSII (Fv/Fm) was generally higher while the actual quantum yield of PSII (∆F/Fm’) and CO2 assimilation rate (An) were lower than in cotton.The intensity of the decrease in Fv/Fm, ∆F/Fm’ and An by water-stress treatments was larger in soybean than in cotton. The decrease in ∆F/Fm’ in soybean under water stress was accompanied by a significant increase in non-photochemical quenching (NPQ) and significant decrease in photochemical reflectance index (PRI). Chlorophyll content decreased significantly under severe water stress only in soybean. The increase in leaf temperature (Tl) in response to water stress was significantly larger in soybean than in cotton. Tl was highly and negatively correlated with Fv/Fm, An, PRI and ∆F/Fm’ while it was highly and positively correlated with NPQ of both crops. Especially in soybean, the correlations of Tl with An, Fv/Fm and PRI were significant. It was concluded that soybean adapted to water stress by dissipating the excess excitation energy thermally with the down-regulation of PSII activity to protect its photosynthetic apparatus from the photodamaging effect of water stress and high Tl. This photoprotective mechanism might be supported by the paraheliotropic leaf movement of the crop. Cotton adapted to water stress by keeping Tl lower to protect the photosynthetic apparatus from photodamage. Probably higher transpiration kept Tl of the crop lower under drought 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.
