Abstract
Seeds and seedlings of Jatropha curcas were treated by seed soaking or root watering using exogenous betaine,respectively.The results showed that pretreatment of seed soaking with exogenous betaine could improve germination percentage and ameliorate growth status of Jatropha curcas under PEG stress.Pretreatment of seed soaking or root irrigating also could enhance survival percentage in Jatropha curcas.In addition,PEG stress could increase content of endogenous betaine in Jatropha curcas seedlings.These results illustrated that pretreatment of exogenous betaine not only could improve germination percentage,but also enhance resistance of seedlings of Jatropha curcas to PEG stress.
