Effect of Salt Stress and Manganese Supply on Growth of Barley Seedlings

Abstract: Effect of supplemental manganese (Mn) on the growth of saltstressed barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) was assessed to determine if a salinity-induced Mn deficiency was limiting plant growth. Sodium chloride (NaCl) was added to the black-cotton soil and salinity was maintained at 0.3, 4, 8, 12, and 16 dS m À1 . A negative relationship between percent seed germination and increasing salt concentration was obtained, however, results suggested that barley is salt tolerant at seed germination stage. Increasing concentrat… Show more

“…However, supplementation with Mn to the salt-stressed seedlings restored biomass loss, improved water status, and reduced Pro content and osmotic potential. These results corroborate previous findings in which Mn supplementation restored growth loss (Cramer and Nowak 1992;Pandya et al 2004). Salinity-induced ionic toxicity and osmotic stress decreased chlorophyll content by increasing the activity of chlorophyllase and overproduction of ROS (Saha et al 2010;Hasanuzzaman et al 2014a, b) or both.…”

“…Several studies also revealed that supplemental Mn plays an important role in the adaptive responses of plants under various environmental stresses. Simultaneous application of Mn improves growth, relative growth rate (RGR), net assimilation rate (NAR), and photosynthetic rate of salt-stressed barley seedlings (Cramer and Nowak 1992;Pandya et al 2004). Exogenous application of Mn reduces metal toxicity in plants by reducing metal accumulation and lipid peroxidation, and improving biomass, chlorophyll (chl) content, carotenoid content, and the antioxidant defense system (Palove-Balang et al 2006;Peng et al 2008;Sebastian and Prasad 2015).…”
