Effects of Exogenous Application of Osmotic Adjustment Substances on Growth, Pigment Concentration, and Physiological Parameters of Dracaena sanderiana Sander under Different Levels of Salinity

Abstract: We evaluated two osmotic adjustment substances (glycine betaine (GB) and glycine (G) and a combination of both glycine + glycine betaine (G + GB) using two modes of application; irrigation and foliar sprays with Dracaena sanderiana plants. The plants were grown in containers and subjected to two levels of NaCl concentrations (2.0 and 7.5 dS m−1) over 8 weeks. Growth, pigment concentrations, and physiological parameters were assessed at the end of the trial. The foliar application of GB resulted in most optimal… Show more

“…In both seasons, raising salinity levels from 1000 to 2500 or 5000 ppm caused steady significant reduction in all of tested growth parameters compared to the control plants. These results are similar to findings of various studies (Farahat, et al, 2013;Breś et al, 2016;Ashour and El-Attar 2017;Ashour and Abdel Wahab, 2017;García-Caparrós and Lao, 2018;Hooks and Niu, 2019;García-Caparrós, et al 2020) who reported reductions in growth traits of ornamental plants due to negative impact of salt stress. Effect of bio-stimulators treatments Data in Table 2, 3, and 4 also revealed that vegetative growth attributes of Vitex trifolia 'Purpurea' plants were dramatically affected by foliar application of the biostimulators treatments.…”

“…The reductions in total chlorophylls and total carbohydrates content a result of raising salinity stress are similar to those reported by various studies (Farahat et al, 2013;Ashour and Abdel Wahab, 2017;García-Caparrós and Lao, 2018). In recent study (García-Caparrós et al, 2020) reported decrease in total carbohydrates content in response to salt stress. Further, the reduction in K + and Ca 2+ % is in harmony with that recorded by García-Caparrós and Lao (2018); Hooks and Niu (2019).…”

“…To cope with the ion toxicity and osmotic stress caused by salt stress, plants have evolved a suite of adaptive mechanisms to minimize such damage to cells and tissues 4 . These mainly consist of morphological adaptations 5 , regulation of osmotic substances 6 , defensive functioning of the antioxidant enzyme system 7 , changes in the photorespiration pathway 8 , and ion zone isolation in cells 9 . In addition, some salt-secreting plants can form salt glands and use them or vesicles to secrete excess salt out of the body to avoid a large accumulation of salt ions 10 .…”

“…However, this is not an easy task as salt tolerance is a complex trait that is controlled by multiple genes and involves various biochemical and physiological mechanisms [ 17 ]. Mechanisms that enhance the degree of plant tolerance may also be induced or enhanced by the application of some chemicals [ 18 , 19 , 20 ]. Many strategies, including the use of certain organic compounds, such as amino acids, glycine-betaine, salicylic acids or plant growth promoting fungi/bacteria, mitigate salt stress [ 21 ].…”
