Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Salinity increased MDA and hydrogen peroxide.
- Intervention effect 100 mg/L nano-titanium increased plant height to 47.01 cm without stress.
- Intervention effect 100 mg/L nano-titanium increased fresh weight to 87.33 g without stress.
- Intervention effect 100 mg/L nano-titanium increased essential oil yield to 0.639 g/pot without stress.
- Intervention effect At 50 mM salinity, 100 mg/L nano-titanium gave maximum essential oil content of 1.84%, 212% above control.
- Intervention effect Nano-titanium under salinity increased APX activity by 176%.
- Intervention effect Nano-titanium under salinity increased SOD activity by 237%.
- Observation Linalool, trans-caryophyllene, 1,8-cineole and germacrene D were major essential oil constituents.
- Association Salinity level and titanium treatment influenced major essential oil constituent concentrations.
- Recommendation The authors propose nano-Ti as a biostimulant for growth and secondary metabolites in saline environments.
