Overview

This investigation reveals alfalfa's physiological responses to drought and bicarbonate stress in germination, indicating variety differences in stress tolerance.

Key Points

  • Alfalfa varieties show varying responses to drought and bicarbonate stress during germination.
  • WL363HQ exhibits the highest tolerance to combined drought and salt stresses among the tested varieties.
  • The study utilizes PEG-6000 for drought simulation and NaHCO₃ for bicarbonate stress in germination tests.
  • Understanding these response mechanisms aids in enhancing alfalfa cultivation under stress conditions.
