Abstract
An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of water deficit on biochemical parameters on sorghum during rabi season (September 2009 to February 2010) in Maharashtra. The treatment combinations consisted of four moisture regimes viz. M1, M2, M3 and M4 upto harvest and six genotypes viz. Phule Yashoda, RSV-1006, Phule Chitra, Phule Vasuda, Phule Anuradha, Phule Maulee.The study revealed that,RSV1006 and Phule Chitra genotypes had maximum total soluble sugar content. The proline content increased with a decrease in the soil moisture content in all the genotypes with predominance in Phule Maulee, Phule Chitra and Phule Anuradha which also reported positive correlation of proline accumulation. The degree of reduction in protein content as a function of water stress was less in Phlule Maulee, Phule Chitra and Phule Anuradha respectively. The genotypes Phlule Maulee, Phule Chitra and Phule Anuradha had lowest nitrate reductase activ...
