Article Synopsis
- Drought stress significantly impacts wheat growth and physiological functions, leading to reduced height, weight, and photosynthetic efficiency in affected varieties.
- Foliar-applied sulfhydryl thiourea helps counteract the negative effects of drought by enhancing antioxidant defenses and osmolyte production in wheat plants.
- The wheat variety Anaaj-2017 demonstrated the highest resilience to drought stress and the most favorable response to thiourea treatment among the varieties studied.
High temperature stress influences plant growth, seed yield, and fatty acid contents by causing oxidative damage. This study investigated the potential of thiourea (TU) to mitigate oxidative stress and restoring seed oil content and quality in canola. The study thoroughly examined three main factors: (i) growth conditions-control and high temperature stress (35 °C); (ii) TU supplementation (1000 mg/L)-including variations like having no TU, water application at the seedling stage, TU application at seedling stage (BBCH Scale-39), water spray at anthesis stage, and TU application at anthesis stage (BBCH Scale-60); (iii) and two canola genotypes, 45S42 and Hiola-401, were studied separately.
