Sulfur use efficiency is a significant determinant of drought stress tolerance in relation to photosynthetic activity in Brassica napus cultivars
To investigate the varietal difference in sulfur use efficiency (SUE) and drought stress tolerance, Brassica napus ‘Mosa’ and ‘Saturnin’ were exposed to polyethylene glycol (PEG)-induced drought stress for 72 h. Direct quantification of S uptake, de novo synthesis of amino acids and proteins was per...
