Abstract excerpt
The aim of this study was to contrast the effects of drought stress on polyamine oxidases gene expression and activity as well as photosynthetic efficiency in relatively tolerant (Karoon) and sensitive (260) maize genotype. d Reduction in leaf relative water content as a result of drought led to increase in root growth, but diminished shoot growth indices. Under drought stress, activity of antioxidant enzyme,...
