Hydrogen peroxide priming has emerged as a powerful strategy to trigger multiple responses involved in plant acclimation that reinforce tolerance to abiotic stresses, including salt stress. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the impact of foliar H2O2 priming on the physiological, biochemical, and ultrastructural traits related to photosynthesis of salt-stressed plants. Besides, we provided comparative leaf m...
The halophyte Salicornia neei Lag. can be used as a phytoremediation agent in salt degraded areas. The objective of this work was to evaluate the organic (carbohydrate and N-aminosoluble) and inorganic (Na+, K+ and Cl-) solutes contents in S. neei submitted to different blades of irrigation and fertilization in Ceara semiarid. The samples were obtained in culture carried out in Ocara-CE. Four areas of 100 m2 we...
This study aimed to obtain basic information on seed germination and seedling establishment of dwarf-precocious cashew (Anacardium occidentale L.) under saline conditions and the relationship between salinity and reserve mobilization during these processes. BRS 189 seeds (cashew nuts) were sown in plastic trays containing vermiculite moistened with distilled water (control) or NaCl solutions with electrical con...
MARQUES, E. C. Aclimatação de plantas de milho à salinidade mediada pelo pré-tratamento com nitroprussiato de sódio. 2013. 99f. Tese (Doutorado em Bioquímica) - Centro de Ciências, Universidade Federal do Ceará, Fortaleza, 2013.; This study was intended to evaluate the acclimation of maize (Zea mays) plants to salt stress, after pretreatment with sodium nitroprusside (SNP, a NO donor compound). The SNP concentr...
This work aimed to evaluate the influence of salt stress exposition on growth and ion accumulation in dwarf cashew plants. For this purpose, cashew nuts (CCP 06 clone) were sown in plastic trays containing vermiculite moistened with nutrient solution containing NaCl with electrical conductivities ranging from 0.0 to 18.0 dS m-1. Plants were harvested after 30 and 60 days under salt stress. It was determined the...
