Role of some growth regulators on cytogenetic activity of barley under salt stress (2010, background): “Salinity adversely affects plant growth and development, hindering seed germination (Dash and Panda 2001), seedling growth (Ashraf et al. 2002), enzime activity (Prakash and Prathapasenan 1988), DNA, RNA and protein synthesis (Anuradha and Rao 2001) and mitosis (Bozcuk 1978).”
Seed Preconditioning Modulates Growth, Ionic Relations, and Photosynthetic Capacity in Adult Plants of Hexaploid Wheat under Salt Stress (2007, background): “For example, Ashraf et al. (2002) observed that priming of seeds with sodium chloride (NaCl) exacerbated the adverse effect of salt stress on germination and later vegetative growth stage of two lines of pearl millet, although in some other species the reverse is true.”
The Role of Phytohormones in Alleviating Salt Stress in Crop Plants (2011, background): “Salinity adversely affects plant growth and development, hindering seed germination (Dash and Panda, 2001), seedling growth (Ashraf et al., 2002), enzyme activity (Seckin et al.”
Effect of salinity on food security in the context of interior coast of Bangladesh (2016, background): “Another study stated that salinity decreased the germination rate of some plants (Ashraf et al., 2002; Rashid et al., 2004).”
