Abstract

With a view to examine the effect of pre-sowing exposure of seeds to gamma radiation (3000 r) on the drought resistance behaviour of barley plants (Hordeum vulgare L., Var. K12), a pot-culture experiment was conducted at a glasshouse attached to the Department of Plant Physiology. The plants were subjected to wilting treatments at tillering stage and were maintained so for ten days. Subsequently, observations on survival capacity, growth behaviour and physiological changes were made during the wilting period. The data obtained were subjected to statistical analysis.
