ABSTRACT
The present study assesses the effect of drought stress on the Moringa biotype under magnetized
water treatment (MWT). The Moringa biotype seedlings were subjected to drought stress with varying
field capacities (FC) viz., control (100% FC), moderate drought stress (MS,50% FC), and severe drought
stress (SS, 20% FC). Magnetized water (MW) significantly increased plant height, leaflet number,
internode distances, leaf area, dry weight of the leaf, shoot, root of the seedlings and markedly improved
the assimilation, transpiration, stomatal conductance, water use efficiency and vapor pressure deficit
under drought stress conditions. The maximum quantum efficiency of PSII (Fv/Fm) and maximum
chlorophyll fluorescence (Fm) were increased and minimum chlorophyll fluorescence (F0) in the darkadapted
state was decreased under drought stress with MWT. Photosynthetic pigments (Chl a, Chl b,
carotenoids) significantly decreased under drought stress, but MW significantly increased them. The
MW application in Moringa biotype resulted in a decrease in total phenolic content (TPC) by 19% and
26% under MS and SS conditions, respectively. Malondialdehyde(MDA), hydrogen peroxide(H2O2) and
accumulation of proline in leaf were decreased with the prolongation of drought with MW. MW could be
used for alleviating the drought stress in Moringa biotype seedlings and improve drought tolerance by
modulating the physiological activities.
