Investigating the effects of excessive zinc on growth, mineral nutrition, and biochemical parameters of Carthamus tinctorius L. during the flowering stage: A comprehensive analysis
Zinc (Zn) toxicity is one of the environmental factors that can have a negative impact on plant growth. To explore this issue, we conducted an experiment using Carthamus tinctorius plants treated with varying con...

Copper-induced changes in growth, photosynthesis, antioxidative system activities and lipid metabolism of cilantro (Coriandrum sativum L.)
The present study aims to investigate the effect of copper (as CuSO4, 5H2O) supply (0, 25 and 50 μM) on performance of cilantro (Coriandrum sativum L.) plants grown under hydroponic conditions. All applied Cu con...

Changes in growth and oxidative response of leaves and nodules in Medicago ciliaris during salt stress recovery
In the present study, we exposed Medicago ciliaris isolated from a saline sebhka and growing symbiotically with Sinorhizobium medicae to 100 mM of NaCl and followed this stress by a recovery period (complete NaCl...

Open AccessInvolvement of Source-Sink Relationship and Hormonal Control in the Response of Medicago Ciliaris — Sinorhizobium Medicae Symbiosis to Salt Stress
In order to explore the relationship between leaf hormonal status and source-sink relations in the response of symbiotic nitrogen fixation (SNF) to salt stress, three major phytohormones (cytokinins, abscisic ...

Phenolic content and antioxidant activity in two contrasting Medicago ciliaris lines cultivated under salt stress
The objective of this study was to determine more indepth physiological and antioxidant responses in two Medicago ciliaris lines (a salt-tolerant line TNC 1.8 and a salt-sensitive line TNC 11.9) with contrasting ...

Variability in the response of six genotypes of N2-fixing Medicago ciliaris to NaCl
Genotypic variability was assessed within six Medicago ciliaris genotypes growing symbiotically with Sinorhizobium medicae in order to identify physiological criteria (growth, ion content, and plant health) assoc...

Salt tolerance of nitrogen fixation in Medicago ciliaris is related to nodule sucrose metabolism performance rather than antioxidant system
In this study, the effect of 100 mM NaCl on physiological and biochemical responses were investigated in nodules of two Medicago ciliaris lines differing in salt tolerance (TNC 1.8 and TNC 11.9). Results showed t...
