Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation GOAL was the most salt-tolerant wheat cultivar among those tested at 100 mM NaCl.
- Intervention effect Melatonin at 100 μM maximally reduced oxidative stress in wheat cultivar GOAL.
- Intervention effect Melatonin at 100 μM improved photosynthesis in wheat cultivar GOAL.
- Intervention effect Melatonin supplementation reduced glutathione (GSH) production in salt-stressed wheat.
- Observation Melatonin-treated salt-stressed wheat showed increased membrane stability, photosynthetic‐N use efficiency and photosynthesis.
- Intervention effect AVG with melatonin and salt stress increased H 2 O 2 content in wheat.
- Intervention effect AVG with melatonin and salt stress reduced GR activity, GSH and photosynthesis in wheat.
- Intervention effect AVG with melatonin and salt stress reduced plant dry mass of wheat.
- Mechanism Melatonin-mediated salt stress tolerance in wheat is related to ethylene synthesis, which improves antioxidant activity and photosynthesis.
