Research Abstract |
In this research, a cross-interactions of environmental stress such a salinity and the primary metabolism was investigated in a developing fruit of tomato. It was revealed that i) salinity stress enhanced sugar accumulation by promoting carbon influx and starch accumulation in an immature fruit, ii) salinity stress enhanced amino-acid biosynthesis but it was not so effective on metabolism of organic acids. Additionally, the effect of salinity treatment on seed germination was also studied. The salinity stress significantly enhanced seed germination through activation of gibberellin biosynthesis.
