| Abstract: |
| This study investigated the mechanism of exogenous 6-benzyladenine (6-BA) in alleviating salt\|alkali stress on soybean seed germination and seedling growth using two soybean cultivars, ‘Henong 95’ and ‘Niuyanjing’. Through seed germination and seedling growth experiments, the effects of salt\|alkali stress and 6-BA treatment on germination parameters, growth indicators, antioxidant systems, endogenous hormone regulation, and related gene expression were compared. The results showed that salt\|alkali stress induced ROS accumulation in soybean seeds and seedlings, causing oxidative damage and significant reductions in radicle length (78.34%~81.00%), dry mass (52.31%~63.40%), radicle volume (67.37%~80.62%), radicle surface area (85.15%~85.20%), and root diameter (15.49%~45.52%) compared to controls. Application of 60 μmol·L-1 6-BA enhanced salt\|stress tolerance by regulating the antioxidant defense system and ROS accumulation, and improved germination rate (33.33%), germination potential (7.32%~51.85%), germination index (20.76%~32.27%), and vigor index (2.80%~49.09%) in both cultivars. Exogenous 6-BA modified endogenous hormone levels (tZ, GA3, IAA, and ABA), increasing their contents by 7.85%~16.37% in ‘Henong 95’ while decreasing them by 5.56%~12.77% in ‘Niuyanjing’. This treatment alleviated radicle growth inhibition by regulating cytokinin metabolism and signaling\|related genes, significantly improving radicle dry matter mass (88.71%~145.55%), root volume (117.90%~465.00%), root surface area (78.64%~98.87%), and root diameter (124.82%~235.48%). Compared to salt\|alkali treatment alone, 6-BA application increased leaf color value (77.90%~89.62%) and stomatal conductance (118.85%~125.67%), effectively enhancing photosynthetic capacity and antioxidant activity in seedlings. These improvements promoted underground nodule formation and root growth, resulting in increased root length (1.55%~17.00%) and dry matter mass (70.43%~75.36%). |
