- Intervention effect NaCl reduced the germination rate of alfalfa seeds to 48% compared with control seeds.
- Intervention effect Priming seeds with 5 mM GA3 increased the germination rate under NaCl to 76%.
- Observation All control seeds germinated.
- Association GA3 priming was correlated with increased dry weight of seedlings from both stressed and non-stressed seeds.
- Association GA3 priming was correlated with reduced electrolyte leakage and malondialdehyde level in salt-stressed seedlings.
- Association NaCl increased the activity of superoxide dismutase, catalase and guaiacol peroxidase in alfalfa seeds.
- Intervention effect GA3 priming increased the activity of superoxide dismutase, catalase and guaiacol peroxidase compared with non-primed seeds.
- Association NaCl increased ascorbate peroxidase activity in alfalfa seeds.
- Intervention effect GA3 priming increased ascorbate peroxidase activity compared with non-primed seeds.
- Association Total ascorbate level was higher in stressed and non-stressed seedlings from primed seeds.
- Mechanism GA3 priming might increase the salt tolerance of alfalfa seedlings through enhancing antioxidant enzyme activity and reducing membrane damage.
