| ABSTRACT Seed germination and seedling growth are the stages most sensitive to salt stress, which can induce ion-specific effects and oxidative stress. Although silicon (Si) has been known to improve plant defense systems against stressful-conditions, little is known about seed priming with Si and mechanisms of Si-mediated alleviation of salt stress in seedlings. To further the modulation of salt-stress responses and their relation with Si, seed priming with calcium silicate (0, 0.05 and 0.1 mM Ca2SiO4) was used in lettuce seeds to improve seedgermination and tolerance on subsequent salt-stress exposure (0 and 50 mM NaCl). The effect of Si-priming was assessed on germination, germination rate index and mean germination time and survival of seedlings in... |
