“…In this context, HAYAT et al (2010) showed that SA was accumulated in plants confronted with various types of environmental stresses. Moreover, numerous researches demonstrated that seed priming with SA enhances plant defense against water stress (HOSSEIN et al, 2015), heat stress (KHAN et al, 2013), and copper accumulation (MOSTOFA;FUJITA, 2013). LI et al (2017) revealed that the exogenous application of ABA, GABA, and SA enhances drought tolerance in Agrostis stolonifera by stimulating amino acids and carbohydrates accumulation.…”

The first experiment was conducted to evaluate the impact of seed priming on germination behavior and seedling establishment in Vicia faba and Vicia sativa, for that, seeds priming was done using SA (100 µM) and KH2PO4. In order to determine the optimal concentration of KH2PO4 for improving germination, different concentrations were used: 25 µM, 50 µM, and 100 µM. The best germination behavior and seedling establishment were obtained with 25 and 50 µM KH2PO4, respectively for Vicia faba and Vicia sativa. Moreover, data showed that 100 µM of SA improved seed germination as well as the seedling establishment for both species. The second experiment was carried out to investigate the influence of seed priming for improving phosphorous (P) deficiency tolerance. To do, seedling obtained from primed and nonprimed seeds were grown in a hydroponic culture system with three different treatments: control (C, medium containing sufficient P concentration: 360 µM KH2PO4), direct phosphorus-deficient (DD, medium containing only 10 µM KH2PO4), and induced P deficiency by bicarbonate (ID, medium containing sufficient P concentration: 360 µM KH2PO4 + 0.5 g L-1 CaCO3 + 10 mM NaHCO3). Furthermore, the role of exogenous SA applied to P deficiency tolerance enhancement was explored. Seed priming or the exogenous application of SA significantly reduced the severity effect of P deficiency. In fact, the pretreated plants were observed more tolerant to P deficiency as reflected from the significant increase in plant biomass, P uptake, and an efficient antioxidant system. Overall, this paper highlights the beneficial effect of seeds priming or the exogenous application of SA in the improvement of plant tolerance to phosphorus deficiency.

A study on the effect of growth regulators on morphological parameters, phenology and yield of muskmelon under graded levels of moisture stress condition was carried out at College of Horticulture, Anantharajupeta. The experiment was laid out in two factorial completely randomized block design replicated thrice. Factor 1 comprised of three moisture stress levels imposed at 50 % flowering stage, T 1 -0 days water stress, T 2 -7 days water stress and T 3 -14 days water stress and Factor 2comprised of three foliar sprays, S 1water spray (Control), S 2 -Gibberellic acid (50 ppm), S 3 -Salicylic acid (0.5 mM). The results indicated that among the moisture stress levels, the morphological parameters and yield attributes were superior in plants not subjected to water stress. Among the foliar sprays tried, SA (0.5 mM) and GA 3 (50 ppm) improved the morphological and yield attributes compared to water spray. Under stress condition, the exogenous application of gibberellic acid @ 50 ppm and salicylic acid @ 0.5 mM was effective in mitigating the deleterious effect of drought stress in muskmelon.

Two field experiments were carried out in the Experimental Station, Faculty of Agriculture, Mansoura University in the two summer seasons of 2014 and 2015 to study the effect irrigation water quantity and foliar application with salicylic acid on growth and yield of potato cv. Spunta grown under clay loamy soil conditions using drip irrigation system. The experiment layout was split plot in based on complete randomized block design with three replications. Quantity of irrigation water (700, 1000 and 1300 m 3 / fed.) were present in the main plots, while foliar application with salicylic acid (0.0, 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3 g /litter.) were assigned in the sub plots. The results indicated that increasing water quantity up to1300 m 3 / fed. led to a significant increase of vegetative growth parameters (Plant height, leaves number, leaves area, number of main stem and foliage fresh weight per plant), leaves chemical composition (N, P, K, chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b and carotenoids), Tubers yield and its physical quality (tubers weight and number per plant, marketable and total yield), Tubers chemical quality (Vit. C, TSS, N, P and K) and plant water relations (Relative water content). On contrary, foliage dry matter percentage, tuber dry matter percentage, hardness, density, electrolyte leakage and water use efficiency were decreased. With respect to the effect of foliar application of salicylic acid, the data exhibited that, the mentioned characters were increased compared to untreated plants except electrolyte leakage. The interaction between irrigation water quantity and spraying salicylic acid showed that the combination which consist of 1300 m 3 / fed. and 0.2 g/l salicylic acid gave the highest values for most effective previous parameters.
