Abstract

The effect of seed treatment with various materials of chitosan and hydroxycinnamic acids on the growth of barley seedlings was evaluated. It was shown that chitosan-hydroxycinnamic acid conjugates and nanoparticles had no negative effect on the initial stages of the growth of barley seedlings. Adaptation of seedlings after 24 h exposure to 4 % NaCl in the samples of conjugates of 30 kDa chitosan with caffeic and ferulic acids was more effective. There was a decrease in proline contents and restoration of the growth activity under post-stress conditions.
