Abstract:ABSTRACT:In this study, we tested the hypothesis that priming with NaCl alleviates saltinduced damages by upregulating enzymatic antioxidant system and controlling ionic homeostasis in sorghum plants. After germination, uniform Sorghum bicolor seedlings were primed with NaCl at 0 (control), 10 (P10), 20 (P20) and 30 mM (P30) (pre-treatment), for seven days, and then subjected to 80 mM NaCl-stress. The most striking effects of NaCl-priming were registered in plants from P10-treatment. After five and ten days of… Show more
