Alleviation of Salt-Induced Stress in Allium cepa L. by Exogenous Glycine Treatment

Abstract

In this study, the role of glycine on the mitotic index, chromosome aberrations, micronucleus frequency as cytogenetic parameters and on the seed germination, radicle length, radicle number, fresh weight as physiological parameters in Allium cepa L. seeds exposed to saltness were studied. Salinity displayed a significant inhibitory effect on the seedling growth and seed germination of Allium cepa. Furthermore, salinity reduced significantly the mitotic index in A. cepa root tip cells and ascended number of chromosomal aberrations and frequency of micronucleus which is the simplest indicator, the most effective of cytological damage. On the other hand, the restricting effects of salinity on the seed germination, mitotic activity, chromosomal aberrations and seedling growth were alleviated dramatically in varying degrees by glycine application, but glycine was ineffective in reducing of salt damage on the micronucleus frequency.
