ELECTROPHORETIC SEPARATION OF INDUCIBLE PROTEINS IN MAIZE SEEDLINGS UNDER FUNGICIDE TREATMENT

The aim of the experiment was to study the effect of a various concentrations of a systemic fungicide, metalaxyl on the expression of new proteins during early germination of maize. The study was conducted for 7 days. Our investigation showed the appearance of induced proteins ranging from 100-110kDa, 44kDa, 30kDa and 18-25kDa on different days of observation and different concentration of metalaxyl treatment, which is in line with the ?ndings in various abiotic stresses
