The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

The Role of Phytohormones in Alleviating Salt Stress in Crop Plants (2011, background): “For example, the exogenous application of PGRs, auxins (Khan et al., 2004), gibberellins (Afzal et al., 2005), cytokinins (Gul et al., 2000) produces some benefit in alleviating the adverse effects of salt stress and also improves germination, growth, development and seed yields and yield quality…”
Plant Response to Salt Stress and Role of Exogenous Protectants to Mitigate Salt-Induced Damages (2013, background): “Pre-soaking T. aestivum seeds with IAA alleviated the growth inhibiting effect of salt stress (Sastry and Shekhawa 2001 ; Afzal et al. 2005 ) .”
Alleviation of salt stress by plant growth regulators and IAA producing bacteria in wheat (2009, background): “In this condition, seed soaking with plant growth regulators and application of additional natural phytohormones supplied sufficient hormones for normal plant development and growth in saline conditions (Kabar 1987; Afzal et al. 2005).”
Mechanisms of plant response to salt and drought stress and their alteration by rhizobacteria (2016, background): “Based on observations that high salt levels decreased the level of IAA in various plant tissues, researchers have shown that the addition of exogenous IAA could alleviate some of the adverse effects of salt stress (Afzal et al. 2005; Abd El-Samad 2013; Liu et al. 2015).”
