Abstract:
The current study was carried out to determine the effect of salicylic acid with different concentrations of drain water by growing Solanum tuberosum L. in soil. Salicylic acid was used in three different treatments as 0-, 0.5- and 1-mM SA while concentrations of drain water were 0, 2, 4 and 6 % respectively. The treatment was given to plants on weekly basis. Different physico- chemical tests including heavy metals were performed before and after harvesting of the plants. Solanum tuberosum L. was grown for the 60 days and different morphological, physiological and anatomical parameters were studied. The maximum metal (Cd) uptake was recoded in leaves of potato tuber as compared to other metals. The results clearly depicted that the plant growth was increased with highest SA treatment (1 mM SA) following maximum concentration of drain water (6% DW). The growth of potato plant was increased as the concentration of salicylic acid increased. It was also observed that the heavy metal uptake was maximum in highest concentration of drain water when 1 mM of salicylic acid treatment was applied. The aim of study was to check the ability of the potato tuber by giving various treatments of salicylic acid and to check the uptake of heavy metal from the soil to the upper parts of plant (leaves) grown under different concentrations of drain water. The crop can be further applied in the field to minimize the effect of dangerous and toxic pollutants found in the industrial wastes.
