This study evaluated the effect of salinity and soilless media on vegetative growth, phytochemicals, antioxidant capacity Trachyandra ciliata (wild cabbage) to develop its growth protocol explore potential as a natural source secondary metabolites. Treatments consisted different concentrations sodium chloride (NaCl), control- 0 mM, 100 200 400 while in vitro assays were used for phytochemical s...

Germination represents a fundamental stage of plant life highly responsive to change of environmental conditions. Low germination percent and seedling establishment are basic problems in saline regions. One of the sensitive stages of plants to salinity is the germination stage. This study was conducted using a factorial experiment with three factors such as species with two levels (Thymus vulga...

Lobularia maritima or sweet alyssum (Brassicaceae) is an annual littoral halophyte, naturally thriving on sandy beaches. In addition to its obvious interest as a salt-tolerant plant, this species mainly cultivated ornamental plant in many countries. Laboratory experiments were carried out assess the effects of salinity seed germination and recovery from saline conditions after transfer distille...

Ionic and osmotic relations in quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) were studied by exposing plants to six salinity levels (0-500 mM NaCl range) for 70 d. Salt stress was administered either by pre-mixing of the calculated amount of NaCl with the potting mix before seeds were planted or by the gradual increase of NaCl levels in the irrigation water. For both methods, the optimal plant growth and ...

sulforaphane is a strong anticarsenogen compound which is produced in broccoli. it seems salt stress improves sulforaphane production via systemic acquired resistance. to obtain suitable salt concentration and for having more content of sulforaphane with controlling germination percentage, nacl in 5 levels 0, 50, 100, 150, 200 mm (0, 4.53, 9.125, 13.68, 18.25 ds/m ) and salicylic acid in 3 leve...

This study was carried out to determine the consequence of foliar application agmatine (0 and 0.5 mM), on growth, physiological biochemical traits, yield turnip (Brassica rapa L.) plants grown under water stress or salt conditions. The effect three irrigation regimes (100%, 80% 40% field capacity) concentrations (0, 100 200 mM NaCl) in pots greenhouse conditions were studied. Water deficit deve...

Salinity is a common abiotic factor that affects plant growth and development. Seedlings of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) F1 hybrid DH10 and three dihaploid lines (207B, 238C and 239K) obtained by diploidization of anther-derived haploids of hybrid DH10 were subjected to 0, 100 and 200 mM NaCl in in vitro conditions for 33 days and the effect on roots was evaluated. In all lines and in the hyb...

The objective of the study was to investigate effects salinity stresses (50, 100, 150, 200 and 250 mM NaCl) on germination early seedling growth six cotton varieties (Lydia, Carisma, Flash, BA151, BA525 ST468) under optimum (25°C) low temperature (18°C) conditions. Germination percentage, mean time, index, stress tolerance length, vigor fresh dry weight were investigated. Results showed that le...
