The objective of this study was to determine the effect of 24-epibrassinolide (24-EBL) applications on growth, chlorophyll, and mineral content of lettuce (Lactuca sativa L. var. Crispa) grown under salt stress. The study was conducted in pot experiments under greenhouse conditions. Lettuce seedlings were treated with seed and foliar 24-EBL applications at different concentrations (0, 1, 2, and 3 μM). Salinity treatments were established by adding 0, 50, and 100 mm of sodium chloride (NaCl) to a base complete nutrient solution. Results showed that salt stress negatively affected the growth and mineral content of lettuce plants. However, seed and foliar applications of 24-EBL resulted in greater shoot fresh weight, shoot dry weight, root fresh weight, and root dry weight as well as higher stem diameter than the control under salt stress. Salinity treatments induced significant increases in electrolyte leakage of plant, but foliar 24-EBL application reduced leaf electrolyte leakage and has determined lower values of leaf electrolyte leakage than non-treated ones. In regard to nutrient content, it can be inferred that 24-EBL applications increased almost all nutrient content in leaves and roots of lettuce plants under salt stress. Generally, the greatest values were obtained from 3 μM 24-EBL application. Treatments of 24-EBL alleviated the negative effect of salinity on the growth of lettuce.

The effect of selected plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) on growth,chlorophyll content, nutrient uptake and yield of lettuce under salt stress was investigated. The study was conducted in pot experiments. Seeds were coated with suspensions of Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus atrophaeus, Bacillus spharicus,Staphylococcus kloosii and Kocuria erythromyxa, which were isolated from highly salty soils. Pots were irrigated with NaCl solutions of 0, 50 or 100 mM. Salinity negatively affected growth and chlorophyll content of lettuce; however, PGPR treatments positively affected growth parameters such as head weight, head height, root diameter and chlorophyll content compared to non-treated plants that were challenged with salt stress. Leaf number was affected by neither salt nor PGPR treatments. Nutrient contents of the leaves of lettuce plants were significantly affected by salt stress and PGPR treatments. All nutrient element contents investigated were significantly decreased except for Na and Cl under salt stress. PGPR under salinity conditions usually increased plant nutrient element contents of the leaves. It can be concluded from the study that treatment with PGPR can ameliorate the deleterious effects of salt stress on nutrition and on the growth parameters of lettuce plants under salinity conditions. Key words: Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria, plant nutrient, salinity stress, lettuce.
