Abstract In the sabkha of Soliman (N‐E Tunisia), soil samples upper 20 cm were taken during driest period year (July–August) from inside and outside tufts two perennial halophytes: Arthrocnemum indicum (Willd.) Moq. Suaeda fruticosa Forssk., both family Chenopodiaceae. Samples analysed for electrical conductivity saturation paste extract (ECe) soluble sodium (Na + ) content. Then, divided into three size categories their shoot biomass production Na content determined. Our results showed a...
Plants are highly sensitive to various environmental stresses, which can hinder their growth and reduce yields. In this study, we investigated the potential of seed priming with salicylic acid (SA), gibberellic (GA3), sodium chloride (NaCl) mitigate adverse effects salinity stress in Hordeum vulgare at germination early seedling stages. Exposing H. seeds salt reduced final percentage shoot root growth. Interestingly, all treatments significantly improved salt-induced responses, GA3 being...
Seedlings of the obligate halophytes Sesuvium portulacastrum L. and Tecticornia indica (Willd.) subsp. were grown with 0, 200, or 400 mM NaCl for 13 weeks to investigate whether salt tolerance was related maintenance adequate photosynthetic activity pigment equipment. Both species showed growth optimum at 200 better tissue hydration under salinity but different response salinity. CO2 assimilation rate stomatal conductance S. highest NaCl, while in T. they decreased Pigment content increased...
The present contribution reviews information on Crithmum maritimum L., a facultative halophyte belonging to the Apiaceae family and typical of coastal ecosystems. It grows wild on maritime rocks, piers, breakwaters sandy beaches along Mediterranean, Pacific Atlantic coasts. Its propagation by germination, vegetative multiplication the in vitroculture techniques is quite easy. Salinities exceeding 50 mM NaCl inhibit seed germination but seem without impact viability. At stage, growth was...
Due to their unique physicochemical characteristics, palladium nanoparticles (Pd-NPs) have shown tremendous promise in biological applications. The biosynthesis of Pd-NPs employing Saudi propolis has been designed be environmental, fast, controlled, and cost-effective. formation stability biosynthesized by extract were proved ultraviolet–visible spectrophotometry (UV-Vis), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Zeta potential analysis. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM),...
Abstract As crucial stages in the plant ontogeny, germination and seedling establishment under adverse conditions greatly determine staple crop growth productivity. In context of green technologies aiming to improve yield, seed priming is emerging as an effective approach enhance vigor performance salt stress. this study, we assess efficiency with indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) mitigating effects stress on maize ( Zea mays L.) seedlings during early stages. unprimed seeds, reduced indices, (both...
This study investigates Mg concentrations and productivity in seven spring wheat genotypes (YR, Local, Sids 12, P3, P5, IC8, IC17) by evaluating their nutritional content responses to organic conventional fertilization methods. We employed a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications observed that resulted higher levels than (2.12 vs. 1.54 g kg−1). The application of fertilizers also shoot dry weight compared the (4.6 1.88 g), 12 recording highest (4.79 followed YR (3.39...
Abstract The interactive effects of salinity and potassium (K + ) availability on biomass production, water status, ionic composition were investigated in Hordeum maritimum , an annual grass growing natively saline soils. Plants grown for 7 weeks Hewitt nutrient solution supplied with NaCl (0, 100, 150, 200, 300 mM) combined low (0.232 or high (5.8 K levels. Independent availability, dry matter both roots shoots decreased consistently increasing levels the culture medium, association a...
