ملخص المقالة :
کمبود آب از جمله عوامل محدودکننده رشد می‌باشد و تنش اکسیداتیو به عنوان یک تنش ثانویه در نتیجه تنش خشکی و کم آبی بوجود می‌آید. به منظور بررسی سطوح کودهای نانوکلات پتاسیم، سولفات پتاسیم و سالیسیک اسید در کاهش اثرات کم آبی بر تعدادی شاخص های فیزیولوژیکی گیاه همیشه‌بهار آزمایشی به صورت فاکتوریل بر پایه طرح کاملا تصادفی با سه تکرار در سال 1398 در گلخانه تحقیقاتی دانشگاه آزاد اسلامی واحد گرگان انجام شد. عامل‌های مورد بررسی شامل آبیاری در دو سطح ، مصرف کود پتاسیم در دو سطح نانوکلات پتاسیم و سولفات پتاسیم، و سالیسیلک اسید در سه سطح صفر، یک و دو میلی مولار بودند. صفات فیزیولوژیکی از قبیل رنگیزه‌های فتوسنتزی، پرولین، فنل کل، آنزیم سوپراکسیداز، آنزیم کاتالاز، قند محلول، پروتئین و گلایسین بتائین مورد ارزیابی قرار گرفت. برپایه نتایج بدست آمده از این پژوهش تنش کم‌آبی به طور معنی داری میزان پرولین، آنزیم پراکسیداز، آنزیم کاتالاز، گلایسین بتائین و قند را افزایش داده و میزان کلروفیل a، b، کل برگ و پروتئین کل را کاهش داد. کاربرد برگی اسیدسالیسیلک در شرایط تنش کم آبی در غلظت به طور معنی‌داری باعث افزایش قند، پروتئین کل، گلایسین بتائین و فنل کل شد. کاربرد نانوکلات پتاسیم و سولفات پتاسیم باعث بهبود تحمل گیاه در شرایط تنش خشکی شد و موجب افزایش صفات فیزیولوژیکی نسبت به شاهد شد.
