Abstract

Drought inhibits several physiological process and induces oxidative stress due to the enhanced production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) mainly in photosynthetic apparatus. Silicon (Si) is known to increase tolerance of rice against drought stress.  However, long period of intensive crop cultivation depleted the available soil Si by approximately 11-20%. Rice husk ash (RHA) is potential Si source. The objective of this research was to analyze the potency of RHA through pot experiment to observe: 1) internal water balanced; 2) integrity of cell membrane and  antioxidant content; and 3) production of tolerant cultivar ‘Segreng’ and sensitive one ‘Cempo merah’. Application of RHA was at level of 0, 4, and 8 tons ha-1. Drought stress was imposed by with holding water until soil water content reached 50% of field capacity (moderate stress) and 25% of field capacity (severe stress). Application of RHA significantly increased leaf relative water content and membrane stability index of rice ‘Segreng’ and ‘Cempo merah’. Tolerant cultivar ‘Segreng’ had better response than ‘Cempo merah’ as shown by greater leaf relative water content under moderate and severe stress. RHA application at level of 8 tons ha-1 increased index of membrane stability and level of antioxidant (AAred and α-tocopherol) which determine production of both rice ‘Segreng’ and ‘Cempo merah’ during drought.Keywords: antioxidant, field capacity, membrane stability, segreng cultivar, α-tocopherol

Abstract

Gama Melon Parfum (GMP) cultivar is a result of crossbreeding between the Natsuno Omoide and Miyamauri melon varieties in 2011. GMP exhibits a unique phenotypic characteristic, including a bitter taste of the fruit flesh and produces a stronger aroma. The objective of this study was to investigate the physiological responses and productivity of GMP under varying water conditions. The experiment was conducted using a single factor consisting of different levels of water availability with field capacity at 50%, 75%, and 100%, as well as submergence at 2 cm, 4 cm, and 8 cm above the soil surface. Each treatment was replicated three times. The plot size for each replication was 2 m x 2 m, ensuring consistent conditions for all treatments. The results of the study showed that treatment with 100% field capacity increased stem diameter, while treatment with 50% field capacity increased the root-to-shoot ratio of GMP. Submergence treatment at 8 cm decreased stem diameter and the root-to-shoot ratio of GMP. The 50% field capacity treatment reduced the total chlorophyll levels in GMP leaves. Submergence treatment at 8 cm increased the total chlorophyll levels in GMP leaves. The 50% field capacity treatment increased fruit fresh weight, while submergence treatment at 2 cm decreased fruit fresh weight. Submergence treatment at 2 cm reduced fruit water content, whereas submergence treatment at 8 cm increased water content in GMP fruits.

Abstract

Rice (Oryza sativa L.) variety 'Inpari 24 Gabusan' offers high nutritional value and a short growth cycle that is ideal for further development. This study aimed to assess the effect of silicon priming on the growth and photosynthetic pigments of rice 'Inpari 24 Gabusan' during the vegetative stage under drought conditions. A completely randomized design (CRD) was used with two factors: sodium metasilicate (Na₂SiO₃) concentrations (0 mM, 20 mM, 40 mM, and 60 mM) and field water capacity (100, 75, and 50%). Germination parameters (percentage and rate of germination, and seed vigor index) and vegetative parameters (plant height, leaf number, root length, biomass) were measured. Leaf chlorophyll and carotenoid content were also assessed. Results showed that silicon priming increased the germination rate from 57.17% at 0 mM to 63.83% at 60 mM. Seed vigor index significantly improved at 60 mM. However, sodium metasilicate concentration had no significant effect on the percentage of germination. Priming at 40 mM and 60 mM significantly enhanced growth and chlorophyll content, particularly at 100% and 75% field capacity. Under 50% field capacity, growth improvements were more limited due to water deficit. Higher sodium metasilicate concentrations also enhanced chlorophyll content, improved photosynthetic efficiency and drought tolerance.
