Description
Summary:Soil salinity accelerates osmotic, ionic and oxidative pressure that suppresses plant growth and crop production. The objective of t of the present investigation was to analyse protective function of nitric oxide (NO) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) against salt (NaCl) stress in coriander plants. Different morphological, biochemical parameters, enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants were analysed. Exposure of Coriandrum sativum L. to NaCl reduced length of root and shoot, biomass, relative water content and biochemical attributes. Exogenous use of SNP and NaHS individually or in combined treatment increased all the above-mentioned growth variables and inhibited NaCl incited biochemical alterations and oxidative damages in Coriandrum sativum L. Synergistic treatment (SNP+NaHS) exhibited increase in the morphological parameters, pigment and osmolyte contents. The oxidative stress biomarkers, hydrogen peroxide and superoxide generation were declined by SNP and NaHS as evidenced by reduced peroxidation of lipids. Activities of both glyoxylase as well as antioxidant enzymes were enhanced with presence of SNP and NaHS. Coriander seedlings treated with NaCl+SNP+NaHS exhibited 21%, 7%, 31% and 59% increase in superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), ascorbate peroxidase (APX), glutathione reductase (GR), respectively over NaCl treated plants. Level of methylglyoxal was decreased in Coriandrum sativum with rise in glyoxalase I and II enzymes. Therefore, synergistic supplementation of NO and H2S alleviates salt stress in coriander plants more efficiently than individual treatment and it might be because of crosstalk mechanism that facilitate salt stress resistance in plants.
