Abstract:
      Effects of different kinds of exogenous chemicals ALA、SA and CaCl2 on seedlings of muskmelon (Cucumis melo L.) were studied and physiological and biochemical characteristics were measured under 150 mmol/L NaCl stress. The results showed that the three kinds of exogenous chemicals alleviated the inhibition of muskmelon seedlings' growth under salt stress. ALA treatments worked best and fresh/dry weight、area of leaf、root activity、dissolved sugar content increased; MDA content and cell membrane decreased after exogenous 6~12 g/100m2 ALA treatments. It could induce salt resistance, salt tolerance and decrease and alleviate damage degree of salt of muskmelon seedlings.
