Proline is an important component of salt-stress responses of plants. In this study the role of proline as part of salt-stress signalling in the desert plant Pancratium maritimum L. was examined. The data showed that salt-stress brought about a reduction of the growth and protein content,
The tolerant C3 plant Pancratium maritimum L. was used to investigate the contribution of photorespiration to the oxidative load under salt and drought stress. 7-weeks old plants were salt-stressed by 150 or 300 mM NaCl or drought-stressed by withholding water for 11 or 21 days. The growth,
