Abstract: | The effects of kinetin and the interaction between kinetin andsalinity on seed germination of three plant species namely Lycopersiconesculentum, Hordeum vulgare and Gossypium hirsutum were studiedKinetin was applied exogenously to the seeds in order to determinewhether this growth-promoting hormone would promote germinationand to see if osmotically-induced dormancy caused by NaCl couldbe alleviated The results indicate that kinetin is capable ofbreaking dormancy in these species and there is a significantinteraction with salinity in tomato and cotton Kinetin, germination, salinity, water stress, salt stress, Lycopersicon esculentum Mill, tomato, Hordeum vulgare L, barley, Gossypium hirsutum L, cotton |
