Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Salicylic acid significantly improved chickpea yield and yield components under water stress.
- Intervention effect Drought increased chickpea leaf proline and soluble sugar concentration.
- Intervention effect Exogenous salicylic acid further increased chickpea leaf proline and soluble sugars under drought.
- Intervention effect Water stress significantly reduced chickpea leaf chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b and carotenoid concentrations compared with well-watered conditions.
- Intervention effect Salicylic acid increased chickpea leaf chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b and carotenoids under water stress.
- Intervention effect Salicylic acid at 0.01 mM negatively affected chickpea seed yield and components.
- Observation The most efficient salicylic acid doses for improving physiological attributes were 0.1 and 1 mM.
- Recommendation The authors suggest exogenous salicylic acid may reduce drought effects by promoting growth and accumulating proline, sugars and pigments.
