Abstract: | Putrescine effect on nitrate reductase activity, organic nitrogen and protein contents, and plant growth under Cd or Pb (0.1 – 2 mM) and salinity (5 and 100 mM NaCl) stresses was examined in Indian mustard (Brassica juncea L. cv. RH-30) seedlings. Cd or Pb and salinity inhibited nitrate reductase activity and decreased organic nitrogen and protein contents in leaf tissue. The increased nitrate reductase activity induced by putrescine was correlated with increased organic nitrogen and protein contents and growth of plants. |
