Mitigating effects of SA and SA with 6 mM NO 3on the leaf Ψ w of plants of maize, cv. Lluteño. The determinations were performed 30 days after treatment. Each dot corresponds to five independent determinations with their SD (vertical bars). Different letters represent significant differences among treatments (Tukey test, P ≤ 0.05).

We analyzed the mitigating effect of NO3 - and salicylic acid (SA) on the detrimental effects of salt stress by studying the water status of plants of maize grown in Hoagland's medium with NaCl 100 mM as the saline component, to which SA and NO3 - were added in different concentrations as mitigating agents. We evaluated water potential Ψw, osmotic...

... potential was significantly affected by the treatment with 100 mM NaCl. Four of the treatments mitigated the effect of salinity: NO 3 - , 0.1 mM SA, 0.1 mM SA-NO 3 - and 0.5 mM SA; these all produced a turgor potential greater than that of the control without salt ( Figure 5). The greatest positive effect was produced by 0.5 mM SA, however, when combined with NO 3 - it produced a greater decrease in turgor than that produced by NaCl. ...
