Effect of Foliar Application with Methyl Jasmonate on Physiological Behavior of Mentha piperita
Authors: not saved
Abstract:
A valuable composition of Mentha piperita L. essential oil is menthol that is widely used fordifferent industries. The plants were treated with different concentrations of Methyl Jasmonate (MeJA) and after 24 h were evaluated for total soluble proteins, chlorophylls (a, b, and total), malondialdehyde, carbohydrates and antioxidant enzymes (Superoxide dismutase and Guaiacol peroxidase). Variance analysis indicated significant variation in all measured traits except for chlorophyll b that is caused by different concentration of MeJA. According to these results, MeJA could active antioxidant enzyme defense system. It can be concluded that stimulation of plant defense systems using elicitors could be a valuable and alternative strategy to protect Mentha piperita from stress.

In order to evaluate the effects of methyl jasmonate on quality of ‘Rabab’ pomegranate, an experiment was conducted as a completely randomized design with 3 replications. Trees were sprayed with different concentrations of methyl jasmonate (0, 0.1, 0.3, and 0.5 mM) at four different stages of fruit development including full bloom, 30, 60, and 90 days after full bloom.Control trees were sprayed...
