Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the effects of various exogenous additives on crop salt tolerance, utilizing sorghum and wheat as model plants. We measured soluble protein content, malondialdehyde (MDA) content, and peroxidase (POD) activity to elucidate the response characteristics of these crops to different exogenous substances: ascorbic acid, gibberellin and Conyza canadensis water extract (CCE). Additionally, we employed the membership function method to analyze and evaluate the impact of these three additives on salt-tolerant in seedling stages. Under conditions of salt stress, all three exogenous substances significantly enhanced soluble protein and POD levels (P<0.05) while effectively reducing MDA content. Following the analysis and evaluation of salt-tolerant, the hierarchy of crop salt-tolerant after the application of three exogenous substances is as follows: wheat > sorghum. Although the extent of improvement varied among treatments, all three exogenous substances markedly increased salt-tolerant in both crop seedlings (P<0.05). Therefore, from the perspective of resource recycling, the application of CCE in improving crop salt-tolerant would be more conducive to agricultural input reduction and current support for carbon emission reduction. From these points of view, Conyza canadensis is of great ecological value.
