“…The gradual decrease in % seed germination with increasing concentration of NaCl is evident from the present results where both percentage germination and the rate of germination declined with salinity. Several chemicals and salts are used to accomplish better germination and accomplish healthy seedlings under stress (Ashraf et al, 2008). Our results are in line with the findings of Rahman et al, (2000), in which germination was directly related to the amount of water absorbed and delay in germination due to the salt concentration of the medium.…”

“…The salinity reduced the shoot dry weight up to 44.33 per cent compared to absolute control. This observation was supported and reported that salinity decreases growth parameters such as fresh and dry weights of plants [21]. In this present study, jasmonic acid increases the shoot dry weight up to 32.76 per cent [Fig-2].…”

“…Sodium ion could be a toxic factor that results in reduced germination because it causes impaired water uptake, secretion of hormones and modifies the activity of enzyme such as malate dehydrogenase and glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase [20]. Pretreatment of seeds with different type of plant growth regulators is much effective in alleviating stress effects of salinity on the plants at different stages especially at early stage and it has been shown to improve seed germination under salt stress [21]. In this present investigation, jasmonic acid restores the salinity stress and increases the germination percentage up to 33.08 per cent followed by gibberellic acid (31.53%) compared to control [ Table-1].…”

“…Ghana et al (2003) reported that seed priming has limited practical worth for enhancing emergence and yield of winter wheat planted deep into summer fallow. Pre-treatment of seeds with different type of hormones and plant growth regulators is much effective in alleviating stress effects of salinity on the plants at different stages especially at early stage and it has been shown to improve crop germination as reported earlier under salt stress (Ashraf & Foolad, 2005;Ashraf et al, 2008). The results of the present study are in agreement with observations of Chauhan et al (2009) who reported that seeds treated with GA 3 showed significant difference with control indicated that the germination percentage decreases when the concentration increased, which shows that higher concentration inhibit germination and the longest radicle length was observed under GA 3 50 ppm.…”
