Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Water stress significantly decreased leaf water potential and osmotic potential in mulberry.
- Intervention effect Water stress caused accumulation of total amino acids and proline in roots and leaves of mulberry.
- Intervention effect Amino acid accumulation under water stress was greater in leaves than in roots of mulberry.
- Intervention effect Proline accumulation under water stress was greater in roots than in leaves of mulberry.
- Intervention effect Water stress inhibited the activities of proline dehydrogenase and proline oxidase in mulberry.
- Intervention effect Inhibition of proline oxidase under water stress was greater in roots than in leaves of mulberry.
