The reaction of plant cell on many
stressful conditions is accompanied by accumulation of protective
proteins. Dehydrins are widespread in a plant kingdom and accumulated
in reply to a drought, freezing, salt stress, and also high
temperature. Earlier we found the accumulation of dehydrins in
mitochondria of some plants under various stresses. This work aims to
study the quantitative changes and localization of dehydrins in the
mitochondria of pea seedlings under low temperature impact of varying
intensity and duration. It has been found that the dehydrins
content in mitochondria of pea
seedlings subjected to the action
of low temperatures increases. The maximum dehydrins content was
founds after cold hardening which is accompanied by cryotolerance
increasing. For the first time it was established that the part of
dehydrins of plant mitochondria is localized in the several organellar
supercomplexes.
