Enhancement Effect of Gibberellic Acid and Kinetin on Sucrose Metabolism in Mungbean Seedlings Under Arsenate Toxicity

Abstract: Abstract:Arsenic pollution is at present an emerging global crisis. Arsenic is a naturally occurring metalloid found in water, soil and air from natural and anthropogenic sources. Currently, Arsenic pollution has gained a burning global importance due to its toxic effects. Growth of major pulse crop Mungbean (Vigna radiata (L.)Wilczek) was affected right from seedling stage when treated with Sodium arsenate (Na 2 HAsO 4 .7H 2 O). With the increase in concentration of Sodium arsenate (5µM, 10µM and 20µM) signif… Show more

“…The vital pigments like chlorophyll, caroteniod content as well as Hill activity were reduced appreciably in sodium arsenate treated seedlings which indicates poor photosynthetic metabolism. The use of GA 3 and kinetin may, to some extent, help to resist arsenic toxicity in the seedling stage, in arsenic contaminated areas (Swarnakar 2017). In our study, the toxic effect of zinc heavy metal decreased gradually with 10, 20 and 30 ppm H.M. applications (IAA + GA 3 + kinetin), and even completely disappeared.…”

“…Reduction in fresh and dry weight due to As toxicity has also been reported in tomato plants [18], maize and bean plants [19]. With higher concentration of As (V) also, the water content of the mung bean seedlings declined [20].…”
