Variability in accumulation of free proline on in vitro calli of four bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) varieties exposed to salinity and induced moisture stress

This paper reports the genotypic variability in the accumulation of proline on the in vitro calli of bean cultivars exposed to induced water and salinity stress. Remarkable variations in the proline content were found among bean cultivars exposed to both stress factors.
