Some peculiarities of water regime and photosynthetic capasity of wheat genotypes under drought conditions

Abstract

The peculiarities of water regime, protein content and photosynthetic capacity of chloroplasts in the leaves of wheat of the different genotypes have been investigated under drought conditions. It was established that the stability of photosynthetic capacity of chloroplasts of a tolerant genotype is stipulated by high relative water content, low water deficit and high protein content in leaves during the drought period
