| Abstract | The study entitled “Impact of biofertilizers on iron homeostasis under elevated CO2 condition in rice, Oryza sativa” was proposed with an objective of assessing the impact of biofertilizers on iron uptake, translocation and grain iron content in rice variety Uma, under CO2 enriched condition. The experiment was conducted using open top chamber (OTC) facility at the Department of Plant Physiology, College of Agriculture, Vellayani, during the period 2021-2022. In this experiment, growth, yield, quality and iron uptake characteristics of rice variety Uma under elevated CO2 condition as influenced by the application of different biofertilizers were evaluated. The experiment was laid out in CRD with 4 treatments [(KAU-POP (control), POP+Azolla, POP+PGPR and POP+AMF)] under 2 conditions [(Ambient CO2 (aCO2) and Elevated CO2 (eCO2)-500 ppm)] with 3 replications. The experiment results revealed that elevated CO2 had a significant positive influence on growth of the plants which was further enhanced by biofertilizer application. When yield parameters were considered, increased CO2 was found to have an adverse effect. There was 58 per cent and 39.28 per cent reduction in filled grains per panicle and grain yield when plants were grown under eCO2 condition. The increase in temperature associated with CO2 enhancement can affect the pollen viability resulting in increased grain chaffiness and yield reduction. Application of biofertilizers had significantly increased grain yield, among which AMF treatment had shown highest impact under both the CO2 conditions. Among the physiological parameters, total chlorophyll content, total reducing sugars and photosynthetic rate increased in the plants grown inside OTC. However, a reduction was noted in total soluble proteins and transpiration rate under elevated CO2 condition. In all these physiological parameters, the biofertilizers treated plants showed higher response when compared to control plants. Grain carbohydrate content was significantly increased by 10.6 per cent in control plants under eCO2 while protein and amylose contents of grains decreased by 14 per cent and 13 per cent indicating reduced grain quality under eCO2. Even under eCO2 condition, the protein content in PGPR treated plants increased by 7.1 per cent and amylose content in AMF treated plants increased by 4.86 per cent when compared to control plants (aCO2). 115 CO2 enrichment and biofertilizers application were found to influence iron uptake and translocation significantly. The pre-anthesis Fe uptake in control plants was dropped by 11.76 per cent and Fe-accumulation by 4.4 per cent under eCO2 condition. But application of PGPR could bring 57.89 per cent increase in iron uptake under ambient condition and 64.7 per cent increase under eCO2 condition. During post-anthesis stage, Fe-uptake was found to increase compared to pre-anthesis stage. Fe-accumulation in the shoot decreased during post-anthesis stage due to re-mobilization of accumulated Fe into grains. There was a drop in Fe-uptake in control plants under eCO2 by 12.5 per cent at post-anthesis stage. At pre-anthesis and post-anthesis stages, plants treated with PGPR (eCO2) have shown increase in Fe uptake by 47.36 per cent and 40.7 per cent, respectively, than control plants. All the biofertilizers including Azolla, PGPR and AMF had significant impact on grain Fe-content under both the CO2 conditions. The Fe content of grains in control plants was dropped by 21 per cent under eCO2 condition. Application of PGPR was found to be most effective resulting in 80.5per cent and by 72.8 per cent increase in Fe-content under eCO2 and aCO2 conditions, respectively. The Fe content in grains was partitioned more into bran than into the polished rice. Control plants when exposed to eCO2 reduced Fe-content in bran and polished rice by 12 per cent and 23.4 per cent, respectively. PGPR treatment increased the Fe-content by 28.6 per cent and 61.7 per cent in bran and polished rice under elevated CO2 condition and by 22.3 per cent and 46.2 per cent under ambient condition when compared to control plants. Diminishing quality of rice with the increasing concentration of CO2 is a global concern today. Elevated CO2 had a positive impact on growth but negatively influenced grain yield due to eCO2 associated high temperature. By the response of experimental plants to AMF and PGPR treatments, these bio-fertilizers can be recommended in overcoming the impacts of elevated CO2 associated high temperature and thereby improving the plant performance. In the present programme, iron uptake and translocation were found to be modified in an unfavourable manner under eCO2 which reflected in the lower iron content of rice grains. The response of iron homeostasis of the experimental plants to the application of biofertilizers, especially PGPR, under eCO2 strongly suggests the possibility of utilizing them for designing iron management strategies to achieve higher yield and quality in rice. |
