МОРФО-ФІЗІОЛОГІЧНІ ОСОБЛИВОСTІ РОСТУ ТА РОЗВИТКУ РОСЛИН В УМОВАХ ПІДВИЩЕНОЇ МІНЕРАЛІЗАЦІЇ

Abstract

<p>The effect of increasing salinity to the morpho-metric parameters of Salix alba L., which dominated in the coastal areas on rivers of Steppe Dnieper, is investigated. We added Mg as salt MgSO<sub>4</sub> * 3H<sub>2</sub>O in the range of concentration: 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5 g/l in a solution of willow cuttings. In the solution was added and plant growth regulator "Kornevin" the synthetic origin. The negative effect of salt at a concentration from 1.0 g/l to 2.5 g/l in the dynamics of growth and development was found. The correlation between the size and salinity in dynamics of growth and development of plant were demonstrated: in the growth of shoots (R = 0.83, 0.91 and 0.95), in the growth of roots (R = 0.92, 0.68 and 0.84) respectively depended from salt concentration. The length of the leaf blade was from 4% to 8%, from 7% to 43%, from 333% to 11% (R = 0,68, 0,93, 0,61), depending on the concentration of salt and during observing compared with control (distilled water). "Kornevin" and combined effect of salt increased the length of the leaf blade growth by 4-5, 2-4, 3-5 times, the roots by7 and 3-14 times, the shoots by 3-4, 6-7 and 5-7 times in the dynamics of growth compared with control (MgSO<sub>4</sub>, 2,5 g/l).</p> <p>The recommendations regarding for the advisability of using the plant growth regulator "Kornevin", as very effective plant growth preparation that promoted rooting and activated physiological processes of plant organism, expressed protective effect in conditions of excessive salinity, were provided.</p> <p class="Style1"><em>Key words</em><em>:</em><em> </em><em>the morpho-metric index, the plant growth regulators, abiotic factors, salinity factor, the adaptation.</em><em></em></p>
