onobrychis arenaria/glutathione

Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) and sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia Scop.) are forage legumes that differ in their responses to high and low temperature stresses. Thermal limitations on the function of glutathione reductase (EC 1.6.4.2) could adversely affect the ability of the plant to cope with

Effects of gamma radiation on physiological responses of the M1 sainfoin plants were investigated. Seeds of sainfoin ecotype 'Koçaş' were exposed to 0, 400, 500 and 600Gy from a 60Co source at a dose rate of 0.483 kGyh-1. Irradiated and unirradiated seeds were sown into culture vessels containing
