Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Moderate and severe drought significantly reduced photosynthetic pigments and soluble protein content.
- Intervention effect Antioxidant treatment increased antioxidant enzyme activity in stressed and unstressed chickpea.
- Intervention effect Antioxidant treatment increased non-enzymatic antioxidant contents and endogenous proline in stressed and unstressed chickpea.
- Intervention effect Sequential antioxidants and proline improved chickpea growth under drought stress.
- Mechanism The authors attribute improved chickpea growth to up-regulated antioxidant defense and osmolyte synthesis.
