Abstract:Background: Salinity is a major threat that impairs legume growth and development worldwide. Therefore, present study was aimed to determine the potential of seed halopriming in relieving NaCl-induced disturbances on nitrogen metabolism of seedlings of six legume crops viz., Lens culinaris, Cajanus cajan, Cicer arietinum, Lathyrus sativus, Vigna radiata and Vigna mungo that were detected to have differential sensitivity to NaCl. Methods: Nonprimed and haloprimed seeds were grown hydroponically under varying Na… Show more
