A cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) control and NaCl-tolerant cell line (cv
Coker 312) were grown on media with or without NaCl in the presence or
absence of paraquat, buthionine sulfoximine, and oxidized glutathione. On
medium with 150 mM NaCl the NaCl-tolerant cell line exhibited no reduction
in growth, whereas a 96% reduction was observed in the control line. The
NaCl-tolerant cell line that was grown on 150 mM NaCl exhibited
significantly greater catalase (341%), peroxidase (319%), glutathione
reductase (287%), ascorbate peroxidase (450%), [gamma]-glutamylcysteine
synthetase (224%), and glutathione S-transferase (500%) activities than the
intolerant control. The NaCl-tolerant cell line had a significantly lower
dehydroascorbic acid/ascorbic acid ratio. Paraquat reduced growth by 20 and
53.7%, respectively, in the NaCl-tolerant and control cell line. The
NaCl-tolerant cell line also showed a slight tolerance to buthionine
sulfoximine. In the buthionine sulfoximine experiments reduced glutathione
restored growth in both cell lines, whereas oxidized glutathione restored
growth only in the NaCl-tolerant cell line. These data indicate that the
NaCl-tolerant cell line exhibited a cross-tolerance to a variety of stress
variables and had a more active ascorbate-glutathione cycle.
