The Effect of Environmental Stress on the Protein Pattern of Gladiolus Spp. M S R AL-Shewailly1 and W F F Alpresem1

Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate the relationship between the type of environmental stress and the protein for Gladiolus Spp plants grown in different stress conditions. The results showed differences in the number and location of protein bands. The number of protein bands ranged between 5 and 7 depending on the environmental stress. Hence, the protein bands. The molecular weights of the first protein band for all stress conditions converged more clearly, ranging from (248.94 to 253.12) KDa. The flooding and drought conditions affected at same level in the first bad, giving the highest molecular weight 252.08 KDa. Results revealed the efficiency of protein pattern analysis in determining the effect of nature of stress of different environmental factors on Gladiolus plant.
