| In heat stressed genotypes of Triticum aestivum L. (Sever and Golia) and Triticum turgidum subsp. durum (Acalou and TE 9306), chosen according to its genetic background diversity, Ca and Mg accumulations were correlated with its photosynthetic performance. It was found that with high temperatures the concentrations of Ca increased in the shoots, whereas the accumulation of Mg augmented only in bread wheat genotypes. Under heat stress, the pattern of electrolytes release in Golia and Acalou remained similar, but the extrusion rates became higher in Sever. During grain filling, the levels of total chlorophylls decreased in the heat stressed genotypes (excepting in Sever). In all the Triticum genotypes, stomatal conductance and the net carboxilation rate... |
