EFFECT OF SALT STRESS ON BIOMOLECULES OF KODO MILLETS Authors: Yadav S And Kaur G*
ABSTRACT
Under salt and water stress, the activity of acid phosphatase and alkaline phosphatase in the leaves of
two cultivars of the important plant kodo millet was examined. With one exception, as the level of
water stress increased, both phosphatases' activity increased. Increased activity is believed to facilitate
the intracellular release of inorganic phosphates, which may help the plant adapt to water stress
conditions by controlling appropriate plant metabolism.
