Abstract
Induction of cotton (Gossypium barbadense L., cv. Giza 90) plants to overcome the adverse effects of reclaimed saline soil by the application of calcium paste and ascorbic acid was investigated. Seedlings produced from calcium paste-treated seeds were sprayed with ascorbic acid at rates of 0, 200, 400 and 600 mg L -1 . Significant positive influences of calcium paste applied singly or in combination with all ascorbic acid rates were observed on growth traits (number of leaves, leaf area and leaf dry weight per plant), chemical analysis (photosynthetic pigments, photosynthates and nutrients) and seed cotton yield when compared with the control (without calcium paste and ascorbic acid). Best results were obtained from calcium paste-pretreated seedlings sprayed with 400 mg L-1 ascorbic acid. Thereon, we recommend spraying cotton seedlings produced from calcium pastetreated seeds with 400 mg L -1 ascorbic acid to overcome the adverse effects of saline reclaimed soil.
