Title
Paclobutrazol Reduces Some Negative Effects of Salt Stress in Peach
A.M. Abou El-Khashab; A.F. El-Sammak; A.A. Elaidy; et al. Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science 1997. doi:10.21273/jashs.122.1.43
Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Foliar paclobutrazol reduced the salinity-induced growth loss of peach to about 30%, compared with about 60% in nontreated plants.
- Intervention effect PBZ-treated peach plants had less defoliation than nontreated plants under salt stress.
- Intervention effect PBZ-treated peach plants had fewer leaves per plant showing salt stress symptoms than nontreated plants.
- Intervention effect PBZ-treated peach plants had higher rates of leaf gas exchange than nontreated plants.
- Intervention effect PBZ generally reduced Na+ and Cl- contents in peach leaves, roots and stems regardless of salt treatment.
- Intervention effect PBZ reduced total Cl- per peach plant in only one of two salt treatments.
- Mechanism PBZ suggestedly promotes salt stress avoidance in peach by reducing uptake and accumulation of Na+ and Cl- ions.
