Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect High salinity decreased emergence and seedling growth in sorghum.
- Intervention effect High salinity increased soluble protein content, superoxide dismutase activity and malondialdehyde content.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen decreased superoxide dismutase activity.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen increased the other measured attributes.
- Association Nitrogen and salinity interacted significantly for most parameters except emergence percentage, catalase and peroxide.
- Association Gibberellic acid and salinity significantly interacted for seedling length, weights, emergence and biochemical measures.
- Intervention effect Gibberellic acid and nitrogen mitigated adverse salinity effects.
- Observation GA3 at 144.3 and 288.7 μm was most effective on many studied attributes.
- Observation Nitrogen at 90 and 135 kg N ha−1 was most effective on many studied attributes.
- Recommendation The authors suggest GA3 and nitrogen to protect early sorghum seedlings from salinity damage.
