Abstract
Vitamin B6 act as a versatile cofactor for many enzymes catalyzing important biochemical reactions, it has also been shown to function as a potent antioxidant molecule.B6 Vitamers is essential for plant development and their metabolism by modulating the endogenous phytohormone production, such as auxin (IAA). The recent explanation of the vitamin B6 biosynthesis pathways in plants provides opportunities for characterizing their importance during developmental processes and contact to stress. In plants, vitamin B6 are biosynthesized through salvage pathway is very similar to the bacterial variant. Pyridoxine, pyridoxal and pyridoxamine are inactive forms of vitamin B6 by the process of phosphorylation converted to active coenzymes forms pyridoxine 5’ phosphate (PNP) Pyridoxal 5’ phosphate (PLP) and pyridoxamine 5’ phosphate (PMP) respectively. This research was performed on different varieties (Azam & Jalal) of Zea mays to check the natural variation response of various Zea mays varieties (Azam & Jalal) for efficacy of exogenously supplied pyridoxine-HCl to induce endogenous (IAA) production for growth promotion. Moreover, it is revealed that increased level of pyridoxine-HCl in Zea mays varieties (Azam & Jalal), differentially promoted the (IAA) level in plants in comparison to control. This research demonstrates an important link between vitamin B6 homeostasis and (IAA) biosynthesis in Zea mays.
