Treatment Summary: | Once the radicle of the seeds had emerged, they were then transferred to potting compost and maintained at 32C/30C with a photoperiod of 16/8 h in the growth chamber. The seedlings were then divided into four sets based on their treatments and were irrigated either with tap water with an electrical conductivity of 50 mS/m, considered as a control treatment (control), 300 mM NaCl without additional silicon for salt stress (NaCl), 5 mM Na2SiO3 (+Si) for silicon treatment or 5 mM of sodium silicate (Na2SiO3) along with 300 mM NaCl (NaCl+Si) for salt stress and silicon treatment. The NaCl and silicon treatments were administered on a weekly basis, as irrigation. |
