External potassium mediates the response and tolerance to salt stress in peanut at the flowering and needling stages

Abstract: Potassium (K) is an essential macronutrient that plays an important role in abiotic stress tolerance. A pot experiment was carried out to identify the potential role of potassium fertilizer in alleviating salt stress in peanut. The results showed that salt stress significantly decreased plant height, dry mass, photosynthetic pigments, the photosynthetic rate, and stomatal conductance, but increased the Na + /K + ratio, total sugars, and the leaf salinity hazard coefficient in two peanut varieties. However, the… Show more

“…6 A–H), indicating that it was mainly stomatal limiting factors that caused the reduction in P n . The experimental results are consistent with findings observed in peanut 48 , cotton 49 and mung bean 50 and so on. Furthermore, photosynthetic pigments in chloroplasts are closely related to photosynthesis, and the decrease of pigment content in stressful environments also adversely affects gas exchange parameters 51 .…”

“…Experimental soil was collected from the 0 to 20 cm thick cultivation layer of the experimental field and classified brown soil with 96.70 mg hydrolyzable N kg –1 , 27.50 mg available P kg –1 , 117.9 mg available K kg –1 , 15.17 g organic matter kg –1 , 680 mg soluble salinity kg –1 , and pH 6.5. Before sowing, the soil salinity concentration was adjusted to 2.5 g (NaCl) kg –1 to mimic a moderate soil salinity level in the field (S, 0.25% NaCl) ( Shi et al, 2020 ), and untreated soil served as the control (N, 0.00% NaCl). The soil (approximately 800 kg) was then put into the wooden planting boxes, and the same doses of 75 kg N ha –1 , 120 kg P 2 O 5 ha –1 , and 170 kg K 2 O ha –1 were applied as the basal fertilizer to each box.…”

“…However, no studies have reported its effect on fruit production, yield and quality in melon. Recent investigations have related the beneficial effects of K in salt-stressed plants to the tolerance of each genotype to salinity, with more evident responses occurring in sensitive genotypes (Chakraborty et al, 2016;Shi et al, 2020).…”
