Abstract:

Proline accumulation is one of parameters which have been studied associated with stress. This experiment was conducted to investigate the Effect of polyethylene glycol on proline of 20 monogerm and polygerm genotypes of sugar beet under greenhouse condition. Experiment was done in Two-factor factorial from in a randomized complete block design with three replications Factor a (stress level: 1: normal irrigation, 2: Polyethylene glycol 6000 with 30% concentration) and factor b (genotypes) was performed. Results showed that level of a and b factors were significant at 5 and 1% probable level but interaction of a × b level were not significant. Normal with mean 5.76 had highest levels of proline and proline reduced 33.33% in stress conditions compared to normal condition. Genotype 30922 with 6.44 mean had highest levels of proline and placed in superior statistical group and 19 and 20 genotypes had lowest level of proline.
