This study investigated the effect of Ulva intestinalis extract on common bean plants grown under salt stress. The results showed that the application of Ulva intestinalis extract enhanced the plants' salt tolerance, promoted plant growth and photosynthetic pigment content, and improved the expression of antioxidant metabolites and enzyme activities.
This study investigated the effect of Ulva intestinalis extract on common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) plants grown under salt stress. Two concentrations of Ulva intestinalis extract, 6% and 12% were applied by irrigation and spraying to plants under 51.33 mM of NaCl. The results indicated that the treated plants showed a great ability to tolerate salt stress (51.33 mM) by increasing plant growth and photosynthetic pigment content compared to plants irrigated only with NaCl. Additionally, there was a significant improvement in the expression of antioxidant metabolites, such as flavonoid content and ascorbic acid content. Furthermore, there was a significant improvement in antioxidant enzyme activities, such as superoxide dismutase (EC 1.15.1.1), glutathione peroxidase (EC 1.11.1.9), glutathione-S-transferase (EC 2.5.1.18), and glutathione reductase (EC 1.8.1.7) in stressed plants, especially those sprayed with 6% of Ulva intestinalis extract. Overall, our results suggest that the application of Ulva intestinalis extract could be a promising biostimulant for the growth of common bean plants under salinity stress.(c) 2022 SAAB.
