Verbatim
e0“The rise of NaCl level and drought treatment, generally, exhibited an inhibitory effect on the growth rate, leaf area and transpiration rate of wheat seedlings”
e3“Soaking of wheat grains for 6 h in 100 ppm salicylic acid before sowing was generally effective in antagonizing partially or completely the stressing effects of NaCl (40, 80, 120 and 160 mM) and drought (70, 50 and 30 % field capacity) on growth rate, leaf area and transpiration rate”

Salicylic acid versus salinity-drought-induced stress on wheat seedlings

Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect NaCl and drought treatments inhibited growth rate, leaf area and transpiration rate of wheat seedlings.
- Observation The water content of wheat shoots and roots was mostly unchanged by salinity and drought.
- Association Water content of shoots at 70% and of roots at 30% field capacity decreased as salinity increased.
- Intervention effect Salinity and drought together raised chlorophyll and carotenoid contents of wheat.
- Intervention effect Salinity and drought together raised net photosynthetic rate and dark respiration rate of wheat.
- Intervention effect Salicylic acid enhanced the stimulatory effect of NaCl-drought on photosynthetic pigments, net photosynthesis and dark respiration of wheat seedlings.
- Intervention effect Soaking wheat grains in salicylic acid had a favorable effect on the accumulation of some ions.
- Intervention effect Soaking wheat grains in salicylic acid antagonized or ameliorated the inhibitory effect of salt-drought stress on some other ions.
