Overview

Evaluates the effects of salinity and Trichoderma on lettuce quality and physiology, implying potential for stress adaptation.

Key Points

  • This research aims to understand how salinity stress and Trichoderma harzianum affect lettuce growth and quality.
  • Evaluated lettuce under varying salinity levels (S0, S30, S60, S120 mM NaCl).
  • Assessed growth-related parameters including leaf area and shoot biomass.
  • Measured physiological traits such as membrane stability index and chlorophyll levels.
  • Performed multivariate analyses to identify influencing factors.
  • Salinity significantly reduced growth parameters, especially at S120.
  • Membrane stability index and chlorophyll index remained stable under salinity treatments.
  • Total soluble solids increased with higher salinity levels, indicating osmotic adjustment.
  • Trichoderma inoculation mainly influenced physiological traits rather than growth promotion.
