Acidic soils with elevated aluminum (Al) saturations are worldwide distributed and harm the crop production in most of the tropical and subtropical regions. Under these conditions, root elongation may be impaired and thus disturbs water and nutrient uptake. Consequently, physiological responses of plants challenged with excess Al may resemble those of drought stresses. Here, we hypothesized that drought tolerant plants are also Al tolerant due to changes in growth, metabolic and physiological adjustments in leaves. Two maize genotypes, BRS1010 and BRS1055, sensitive and tolerant to drought, respectively, were hydroponically grown under controlled conditions and challenged with two Al concentrations (0 and 100 µM AlCl3) for 5 days. After treatment with Al,... |
