ABSTRACT

The experiment was conducted to understand the influence of salinity and presoaking treatments on the level of proline, sodium and potassium content in UP 262 cultivar of wheat seedlings during early growth stages. In leaves the proline and sodium content increased significantly with rise in levels of salt stress. Potassium content in shoots exhibited an increasing trend whereas the reverse was noted in roots with increasing salt stress levels. Potassium content was higher in shoots as compared to roots. However, presoaking treatments resulted a decrease in the amount of proline content as compared to control. The presoaking treatments alleviates the salt stress by modulation of osmotically active low molecular compounds like proline
