Abstract

Oxidative stress was investigated in Lycopersicum esculentum L. by applying various pesticides and boron compounds for two years, near Ortaca-Muğla. The field sections were treated separately by commercial pesticides and boron compounds i.e. tarimbor (TB), boric acid (BA), laser (LA), zoom (ZO) and admiral (AD). During first year, boric acid (BA-1) caused highest increase in total chlorophyll (TCh) content (158.41 μg g-1) while the second dose (BA-2) decreased it (103.11 μg g-1). During second year, higher doses of tarimbor (236.49 μg g-1) caused increase in total chlorophyll (TCh) while ZO treatment decreased it (142.55 μg g-1) (control: 149.55 μg g-1). TB-1 caused the highest increase in proline content (33.52 nmol g-1) while highest reduction was observed in boric acid (BA-2) (22.51 nmol g-1) as compared to control group (26.77 nmol g-1). During the first year, an increase of boric acid and tarimbor concentrations decreased malonaldehyde (MDA) while during the second year, both increases and decreases were observed in the MDA amount. Highest superoxide dismutase (SOD) amount was found in the first year ZO treated plants i.e. 70.35 unit SOD/mg protein while TB-1 treatment caused the highest decrease in the SOD amount i.e. 35.21 unit SOD/mg protein (control: 45.23 unit SOD/mg protein).

Antioxidative Defence Mechanisms in Tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum L.) Plants Sprayed with Different Pesticides and Boron compounds

Abstract

Oxidative stress was investigated in Lycopersicum esculentum L.
by applying various pesticides and boron compounds for two years, near
Ortaca-Muğla. The field sections were treated separately by commercial
pesticides and boron compounds i.e. tarimbor (TB), boric acid (BA), laser (LA),
zoom (ZO) and admiral (AD). During first year, boric acid (BA-1) caused
highest increase in total chlorophyll (TCh) content (158.41 μg g^-1)
while the second dose (BA-2) decreased it (103.11 μg g^-1). During
second year, higher doses of tarimbor
(236.49 μg g^-1) caused increase in total chlorophyll (TCh) while ZO
treatment decreased it (142.55 μg g^-1) (control: 149.55 μg g^-1).
TB-1 caused the highest increase in proline content (33.52 nmol g^-1)
while highest reduction was observed in boric acid (BA-2) (22.51 nmol g^-1)
as compared to control group (26.77 nmol g^-1). During the first
year, an increase of boric acid and tarimbor concentrations decreased
malonaldehyde (MDA) while during the second year, both increases and decreases
were observed in the MDA amount. Highest superoxide
dismutase (SOD) amount was found in the first year ZO
treated plants i.e. 70.35 unit SOD/mg protein while TB-1 treatment caused the
highest decrease in the SOD amount i.e. 35.21 unit SOD/mg protein (control:
45.23 unit SOD/mg protein).
