Resistance of cellular variants of Nicotiana tabaccum L. plants to water stress

Keywords: cell selection, tobacco, water deficit, Ba2 ions, stress, resistance, proline

Abstract

Aim. It has been established that resistance to some heavy metal cations is combined with resistance to osmotic stress. Thus, resistance to barium cations correlates with resistance to water stress. Therefore, the aim of the experiment was to compare the resistance of primary and secondary calli to modelled stresses. Methods. The object of testing was tobacco, a plant sensitive to water deficit. The level of resistance of the variants was assessed by the relative increase in fresh weight under osmotic stresses: (salinity, 25.0 g/l of sea water salts; sodium sulphate, water stress). Both concentrations are lethal for wild-type tobacco cell cultures. Results. Вa-resistant tobacco cell cultures were obtained. Tobacco callus were resistant to lethal modelled stresses. The Ba-resistant culture was developed on medium with the addition of sea water salts and sodium sulphate. Conclusions. The phenomenon of resistance was selected as a result of primary selection on the medium with heavy metal ions. The level of osmotic resistance did not decrease with increasing cultivation time.
