Investigation was carried out at Department of Biochemistry, B. A. College of Agriculture, Anand Agricultural University, Anand to study the biochemical and physiological characterizations of two maize genotypes (resistance and susceptible) procured treatment was given to seed followed by artificial drought (PEG) stress at 15 DAS. For total chlorophyll, true protein and moisture content in biochemical analysis were decreased while total carbohydrates, total soluble sugars, reducing sugars, proline and free amino acids content were increased in both the genotypes (resistance and susceptible) due to drought stress. Application of BA (25 ppm) could be increased in all biochemical and physiological parameters for improved biochemical content in both genotypes. The moisture content was found minimum in resistant over susceptible genotype. However, resistant genotype showed better performance in higher root-shoot length and weight than susceptible genotype under drought stress conditions, through treatment BA was higher root-shoot length and weight in resistant and susceptible genotypes.
