Abstract:
The present study investigates the effects of Glomus mosseae and Glomus intraradices on the resistance of green basil plants to salinity stress. The findings suggested that there was an interaction of effects between mycorrhiza fungi inoculation and salt stress on the physiological characteristics of Ocimum basilicum L. On one hand, salinity decreased percentage of root colonization, root length, fresh and dry weight of shoot and root and content of photosynthetic pigments in inoculated basil plants. On the other hand, mycorrhiza fungus – inoculated plants experienced increase in root length, dry and fresh weights of shoot and content of photosynthetic.

The effects of methyl jasmonate and salinity on germination and seedling growth in Ocimum basilicum L. Shekoofeh Enteshari* and Tahereh Jafari
About 10 percen of lands around the world under crops planting are affected by salinity. Therefore, comprehensive researches have been conducted to minimize the harmful effects of salinity in agriculture. The purpose of this study is examination of the Mmethyl jasmonate effect on reducing the effects of salinity in germination and vegetative stages of the basil plant.For the methyl jasmonate t...

Abstract One way to reduce the use of chemical fertilizers without harming plant nutrition and increase the absorption of nutrients in crops is to use biostimulants. Seaweed extracts is one of the plant biostimulants that is used in agricultural systems because of their potential for improving nutrient use efficiency, resistance to stressors, and product quality. In this study, the effects of ...
full textEffects of Seaweed Extract on Physiological and Biochemical Characteristics of Basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) under Water-Deficit Stress Conditions
Drought stress is one of the most important restricting factors for plant yield in arid and semi-arid regions. Seaweed extract, as a biofertilizer, enhances plant resistance against abiotic stresses via accelerating seed germination, root growth enhancement and uptake of plant nutrients. The present research was carried out to investigate the effects of foliar spraying of Ascophyllum nodosum se...

Tobacco is a salt-sensitive glycophyte crop species. In this work effect of silicone (Si) supplementation (1 mM as Na2SiO3) was studied in Nicotiana rustica L. cv. Basmas grown hydroponically in growth chamber under control, low (25 mM) and high (75 mM) NaCl concentration for two weeks. Dry matter production of leaves was depressed by salinity level as low as 25 mM and higher salt concentration...

The potential of three arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) - Glomus mosseae, G. fasciculatum and G. intraradices- to enhance the production of essential oil and plant growth parameter was investigated in sweet basil (Ocimum basilicum). The AMF inoculation significantly increased plant height, fresh and dry matter yield, oil content and oil yield as compared to non-inoculated basil plants. Essent...
