To investigate the effect of salicylic acid (SA) on growth and nitrogen metabolism in mungbean grown under saline conditions, an experiment was conducted in wire house in plastic pots containing soil + sand at NIAB Faisalabd. Mungbean (Vigna radiata L.) varieties, two salt tolerant (NM-98 and NM-92) and two salt sensitive (NM-54 and NM-13-1), identified in laboratory experiments, were grown und...

Salinity stress severely affects the growth, physiological and developmental processes in plant species. Melia dubia is an ecologically economically important tree species of Indian subcontinent. However, systematic information with respect to salt tolerance potential completely lacking. Under conditions, determining suitable soil EC range required for better survival, growth productivity In pr...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Atriplex (Halimione) portulacoides is a halophytic, C(3) shrub. It is virtually confined to coastal salt marshes, where it often dominates the vegetation. The aim of this study was to investigate its growth responses to salinity and the extent to which these could be explained by photosynthetic physiology. METHODS The responses of young plants to salinity in the range 0-70...

Halophytes are remarkable plants that can tolerate extremely high-salinity conditions, and have different salinity tolerance mechanisms from those of glycophytic plants. In this work, we investigated the mechanisms of salinity tolerance of an extreme halophyte, Kochia sieversiana (Pall.) C. A. M, using RNA sequencing and physiological tests. The results showed that moderate salinity stimulated ...

The purpose of this study was to determine the optimum addition calcium during adaptation period white shrimp seed in low salinity media, so physiological conditions still support maximally survival and growth. research carried out by using Completely Randomized Design, i.e., freshwater for decreasing water from 20 g L-1 0.5 as much 150, 200, 250, 300, 350 mg L-1, respectively. used reduction p...

Pseudomonas diminuta, P. putida and P. aeruginosa were established as a biodegrading agent for Methyl Parathion (MP) at 1200 mg/L, under basic growth parameters for mesophiles. In this study, the effects of process parameters, such as temperature, pH, salinity, carbon and nitrogen sources on the growth of those bacteria were studied and optimized to establish higher degradation of the target ch...
