Other claims from this paper (14)
- Intervention effect Salt stress decreased pea dry weight, height and flower number relative to the control.
- Intervention effect Salt stress decreased pod number and green seed weight in pea plants.
- Intervention effect Salt stress decreased protein concentration in pea plants.
- Intervention effect Salt stress significantly reduced chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b and relative water content.
- Intervention effect Salt stress significantly increased malondialdehyde, hydrogen peroxide and electrolyte leakage.
- Intervention effect Salt stress significantly increased super oxide and antioxidant components.
- Intervention effect Melatonin alone enhanced physiobiochemical, morphological and yield characteristics of stressed pea plants.
- Intervention effect The nano silica and melatonin combination enhanced physiobiochemical, morphological and yield characteristics of stressed pea plants.
- Intervention effect The combination treatment significantly increased dry weight, height and flower number in stressed pea plants.
- Intervention effect The combination treatment significantly increased pod number and green seed weight in stressed pea plants.
- Intervention effect The combination treatment significantly increased protein, chlorophyll and relative water content in stressed pea plants.
- Intervention effect The combination treatment significantly decreased electrolyte leakage, malondialdehyde and reactive oxygen species in stressed pea plants.
