Popis: | The effects of geothermal waters (GW) on the seed germination and seedling growth of wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Atay-85) at various salt (NaCl) concentrations were examined. It was found that 150 mM NaCl decreased significantly both seed germination and seedling growth of wheat. Salt stress of seed germination and seedling growth of wheat were alleviated by GWs of Sefaköy and Murat Dagi but it was not by GW Sankiz. The highest alleviation effect was found with GW Murat Dagi and the effect was attributed to its calcium richness and lower level of toxic elements. |
