Overview

Observational analysis evaluates salinity stress impact on chickpea, suggesting proline and GB enhance growth.

Key Points

  • Chickpea cultivars exhibit decreased biomass under 50 and 100 mM salinity stress, with PDG4 losing up to 33.7%.
  • Foliar application of proline improved biomass by 7.6% in PDG4 and 8.7% in GPF2 under mild salinity conditions.
  • Increased antioxidant enzyme activities were observed, with SOD activity rising significantly following proline and GB application.
  • Proline showed greater effectiveness than GB in mitigating salinity stress impacts, indicating a potential strategy for enhancing chickpea resilience.
