Chitosan Application Against the Negative Effects of Salt Stress in Tomato Cultivation

Öz

Production efficiency has become increasingly important when soil salinity is added to causes such as climate changes, wars, population growth, and a decrease in agricultural lands. Salinity significantly affects plant growth. Therefore, studies on this subject have intensified. Organic solutions are focused on protecting plant growth from salt stress. In this study, chitosan biopolymer was applied to alleviate salt stress in tomato seedlings. Plant defense reflexes against salt stress were investigated by changes in the enzyme levels of Superoxide Dismutase (SOD), Catalase (CAT), and Malondialdehyde (MDA). It was determined that chitosan applied for salt stress significantly affected SOD, CAT, and MDA enzyme levels. It can be stated that chitosan is a valuable and reasonable tool for protection from abiotic stresses. In addition, it has been determined that enzyme values are helpful in determining the factors that cause stress in plants and in elucidating the vegetative response mechanisms.

Domates Yetiştiriciliğinde Tuz Stresinin Olumsuz Etkilerine Karşı Kitosan Uygulaması

Öz

Küresel düzeyde meydana gelen iklim değişiklikleri, savaşlar, nüfus artışı, tarım arazilerindeki azalma gibi nedenlere toprak tuzluluğu da eklenince üretim verimliliği giderek önem kazanmıştır. Tuzluluk bitki gelişmesini önemli derecede etkilemektedir. Bundan dolayı bu konuda çalışmalar yoğunlaşmıştır. Bitki gelişimini tuz stresinden korumak için organik çözümlere odaklanılmıştır. Bu çalışmada domates fidelerinde tuz stresini hafifletmek için kitosan biyopolimeri uygulanmıştır. Tuz stresine karşı bitki savunma refleksleri Süperoksit Dismutaz (SOD), Katalaz (CAT) ve Malondialdehit (MDA) enzim seviyelerindeki değişim ile incelenmiştir. Tuz stresi için uygulanan kitosanın anlamlı derecede SOD, CAT ve MDA enzim seviyelerini etkilediği tespit edilmiştir. Kitosanın abiyotik streslerden korunmak için kullanışlı ve makul bir araç olduğu ifade edilebilir. Ayrıca enzim değerlerinin bitkilerde strese neden olan etkenlerin tespitinde ve bitkisel yanıt mekanizmalarının aydınlatılmasında kullanışlı olduğu belirlenmiştir.
