dc.description.abstract | Unfavorable environment, for most cultivated plants is the soil, which is characterized by high concentrations of salt. Stress caused by high salt concentrations leads to disorders in the transport of electrons in certain cell organelles, creating reactive oxygen species that cause lipid peroxidation, oxidative protein degradation, and DNA mutations. Trail was set in Banat, locality Kumane, where the complex stress environment is caused by alkaline soil of solonetz type, soil of poorer productivity, represents a production environment that can be considered stressful for plants. The research included 12 genotypes, of which 10 varieties and one local population of hexaploid wheat and one variety of triticale. The enzymatic activity of the antioxidant system (SOD, GPx, PPx), PAL, non-enzymatic components of the antioxidative system (GSH, phenols, tannins, DPPH-test) as well as lipid peroxidation have been determined. From the standpoint of both groups of investigated components, genotypes of Banatka and Bankut 1205 were the most stress tolerant. The genotype Rapsodija has stood out according to a good reaction when the enzymatic component is observed and the genotype Renesansa when considering non-enzymatic activity. | sr |
