Other claims from this paper (13)
- Intervention effect High salt concentration caused a substantial reduction in bean plant growth.
- Intervention effect Proline contents of bean plants increased with increasing salt doses.
- Intervention effect The highest decrease of bean plant root dry weight was obtained with NaCl application among the salt sources.
- Intervention effect Salt in the growth medium decreased the macronutrient contents (N, P, K, Ca, Mg) of bean root and shoot.
- Intervention effect N and P contents of bean root and shoot increased with increasing hydrogel application doses.
- Intervention effect The highest N and P increases in bean roots and shoots were obtained with the 1.0 HG application for all salt types.
- Intervention effect Hydrogel added to saline soil significantly improved the variables affected by high salinity in bean.
- Intervention effect Hydrogel added to saline soil reduced soil electrical conductivity.
- Intervention effect Hydrogel added to saline soil reduced nitrate, proline and electrolyte leakage of bean plants.
- Intervention effect Hydrogel added to saline soil enhanced bean root and shoot dry weight.
- Association Salt type, doses and hydrogel affected soil electrical conductivity.
- Intervention effect The effects of salt concentrations on N, K and P content of bean plants were significant.
- Recommendation The authors conclude hydrogel appears highly effective as a soil conditioner in vegetable growing to improve crop tolerance and growth in saline conditions.
