Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect ALA application increased Swiss chard dry weight and relative growth rate under sodic alkalinity.
- Intervention effect ALA application increased chlorophyll and Mg 2+ concentration under sodic alkalinity.
- Intervention effect ALA did not change water uptake under sodic alkalinity.
- Intervention effect ALA did not change leaf K + , Fe 3+ or endogenous ALA concentration under sodic alkalinity.
- Intervention effect ALA increased catalase and guaiacol peroxidase activity.
- Intervention effect ALA maintained superoxide dismutase activity at the control level.
- Mechanism The authors attribute ALA stress alleviation mainly to antioxidant capacity and superoxide dismutase.
