Abstract EN
The study was executed from the period of 2014 to 2015 seasons at the tissue culture laboratory of the Horticulture department, Faculty of Agriculture – Assiut University In vitro grown banana plantlets of Grand Nain and Zeev cultivars were treated with NaCl at 0,30,60,120, and 200 mM/L to study the effect of salinity stress on the plantlets or with PEG at 0,10,20,30, and 40g/L for drought investigation.
The obtained results could be concluded as follow: 1-Effect of salinity: Plantlet height, fresh weight, dry weight and number of leaves/plantlet significantly decreased by increasing the NaCl concentration from Zero to 200 mM/L for both tested cultivars during 2014 and 2015 season.
Total chlorophyll and K+ content significantly decreased, while sodium content significantly increased by increasing NaCl concentrations as compared with untreated plantlets (control).
