I need to concatenate two string fields.what is the equivalent of : in parallel edition?.Is concatenation possible in modify stage?

As far as I know concatentation is not possible in modify stage

Column export stage is one way to do this.But are there any concatenation function available which can be used in transformer?

Yes in transformer we can do it but without any function just use :

String1:String2

Concatenate is same ":" in parallel as well. You can do it in a transformer stage. Not sure about Modify though.

In transformer we can use ":" for concatenating two strings.

The modify stage alters the record schema of its input data set. The modified data set is then output.

I think modify stage cannot be used for concatenating.
