International Conference on Reimagining Rainfed Agro-ecosystems: Challenges &<br />

Opportunities during 22-24, December 2022 at ICAR-CRIDA, Hyderabad<br />

stress (50% FC). The observations on various growth, physiological and biochemical<br />

parameters were recorded following the established procedures.<br />

Results<br />

Under water stress conditions, the genotypes exhibited diverse physiological and biochemical<br />

responses. The genotypes with better root characteristics such as Kheri Sindhi, Erengeri Local<br />

and Solanum macrocarpon showed tolerance to deficit moisture through lower percentage<br />

reduction in root characteristics like root volume, root fresh weight and root dry weight<br />

followed by Arka Neelkanth and Arka Anand and the genotypes with poor root characteristics,<br />

Solanum seaforthianum, Solanum acculeatissimum JRPH/15-008 and Solanum insanum<br />

showed susceptibility with greater reduction in root characteristics.<br />

The genotypes Kheri Sindhi, Erengeri Local and Solanum macrocarpon showed lower percent<br />

reduction in total dry matter production and higher percent increase in root to shoot ratio,<br />

followed by Arka Neelkant and Arka Anand. They also showed lower percent reduction in<br />

leaf relative water content. These genotypes showed lower percent increase in canopy<br />

temperature, higher percent accumulation <strong>of</strong> proline content with lower production <strong>of</strong> MDA.<br />

The genotypes with better root characteristics showed lower ABA and higher cytokinin<br />

content. Whereas the genotypes, Solanum seaforthianum, Solanum acculeatissimum JRPH/15-<br />

008 and Solanum insanum showed lower proline accumulation and higher MDA content. These<br />

genotypes also exhibited higher activity <strong>of</strong> anti-oxidative enzymes and ABA content with<br />

lower cytokine content in roots.<br />

Conclusion<br />

From the results obtained from the present study it is concluded that the genotypes with better<br />

root characteristics, Kheri Sindhi, Erengeri Local and Solanum macrocarpon, Arka Neelkanth<br />

and Arka Anand showed tolerance to deficit moisture stress condition compared to genotypes<br />

with poor root characteristics.<br />
