- Intervention effect NaCl stress at 150 mM significantly reduced photosynthetic pigment contents of ginger plantlets.
- Intervention effect NaCl stress raised Na+, Cl− and H2O2 contents in ginger plantlets.
- Intervention effect NaCl stress raised superoxide radical contents, chlorophyllase activity and SOD activity in ginger plantlets.
- Intervention effect NaCl stress raised catalase and peroxidase activities in ginger plantlets.
- Intervention effect Foliar salicylic acid increased shoot number and fresh weight about threefold in stressed ginger plantlets.
- Intervention effect SA treatment increased chlorophyll a content by 41% under salt stress.
- Intervention effect SA treatment increased chlorophyll b content by 51% under salt stress.
- Intervention effect SA treatment increased total chlorophyll content by 48.56% under salt stress.
- Intervention effect SA treatment increased carotenoid content by 36% under salt stress.
- Intervention effect SA treatment reduced chlorophyllase activity by 18% under salt stress.
- Intervention effect SA treatment increased SOD activity by 71.22% in NaCl-stressed ginger plantlets.
- Intervention effect SA treatment increased CAT activity by 50.84% in NaCl-stressed ginger plantlets.
- Intervention effect SA treatment increased POD activity by 50.45% in NaCl-stressed ginger plantlets.
- Intervention effect SA application reduced H2O2 content by 31.24% in stressed ginger plantlets.
- Intervention effect SA application reduced superoxide production rate by 43% in stressed ginger plantlets.
- Intervention effect SA treatment increased K+ ion concentration by 25.65% in stressed ginger plantlets.
- Mechanism SA-mediated improvement in ionic balance and antioxidative defence contributed to the acclimatization of ginger plantlets under salinity.
- Recommendation Foliar application of 0.5 mM salicylic acid could help recover the reduced growth of stressed ginger plantlets, and SA treatment could be suggested to produce salt-adapted ginger plantlets in vitro.
