Abstract

Three pot experiments were carried out at a private farm in Abu Homos, El-Beheira Governorate during 2018 and 2019 and 2020 growing seasons to examine the role of Glutathione, Selenium, and Humic Acid solely in the first two seasons and in combinations in the third season in elevation the impact of salinity on vegetative growth (leaves fresh weight, leaves dry weight and leaf area), chemical composition (chlorophyll, N, P, Ca, K, Na, Proline contents, K/Na ratio) and yield of sweet pepper cultivar “Madrid”. The results illustrated that the growth parameters, chemical composition and yield of sweet pepper decreased by increasing salinity level. The results of the mitigation treatments of Glutathione, Selenium, and Humic acid, showed that the application of either Selenium alone in the first two seasons or combined with Glutathione in the third season showed significant effects for increasing plant growth, nutrient contents and yield under the highest salinity level.
