Low iron stress nutrition for evaluation of Fe-efficient genotype physiology, photosynthesis, and essential monoterpene oil(s) yield of Ocimum sanctum

Abstract: Genotypic variations were observed among 6 variants and an indigenous one as a control. An efficient genotype OCD(L) of Ocimum sanctum had the greatest content of chlorophylls [2.15 g kg −1 (FM)], Chl a/b ratio of 1.86, net photosynthetic rate of 0.72 mg(CO 2 ) m −2 s −1 , and 1.56 % oil formation. Methyl chavicol formed 50.31 % of total oil in OSP-6 genotype, which had also maximum peroxidase activity [ΔOD 2.4 mg −1 (protein)] and maximum production of eugenol (30.44 % of total oil). We found an oxido-reducib… Show more

“…In research on the mint plant, the content of phenolic compounds in the treated plants compared to control plants increased with increasing concentrations of Zn. Zinc induces oxidative stress and will lead to free radical production in the plant, the plant will lead with stress and overcome on these species, their non-enzymatic antioxidant defense system (vitamin E, carotenoids and phenolic compounds) will be enabled, phenolic compounds have important role in this action, and it reduces the amount of damages caused by it [41]. In this experiment, the concentration of zinc oxide nanoparticles increases the amount of phenolic compounds entire leaf.…”

“…In research nutrition of zinc yielded significant increase in the concentration of phenolic compounds rosemary leaves. Although the specific reason for this increase has not been mentioned, but the role of zinc in use of carbon to produce phenolic compounds on the shikimic acid cycle and acetate can be one of the reasons for this increase [41]. In research on the mint plant, the content of phenolic compounds in the treated plants compared to control plants increased with increasing concentrations of Zn.…”

“…Chl biosynthesis requires several metals (Table 1); therefore, decreased Chl content is a general symptom of essential metal deficiency (e.g., Thoiron et al 1997;Misra et al 2006;Duy et al 2007;Mahmoudi et al 2007;Timperio et al 2007; reviewed by . Electron transport efficiency (e.g., Droppa et al 1984;Baszyń-ski et al 1978;reviewed by Maksymiec 1997) and CO 2 fixation (e.g., Srivastava et al 1997;Siedlecka and Krupa 1996;reviewed by Myśliwa-Kurdziel et al 2002) also decrease as several enzymes or proteins involved in these processes require essential metals (Table 1).…”
