Abstract:
The work aims to study the effect of NaCl salt concentration in presence of calcium or potassium
on germination and growth of durum wheat. The parameters studied are: water absorption rate,
germination rate, length of shoots and roots and production of biomass. The results obtained
show that the effect of increased salinity is harmful to all parameters studied. However, the Ca
added has a positive effect on the reduction of Na aggressiveness over as potassium effect. The
latter gave a favorable effect only for the low dose. So calcium amendment has a remarkable
effect on reduction of aggressive effect of Na despite the increase in salinity of the medium. |
