TY - JOUR TI - Plant Growth, Ion Accumulation and Essential Oil Content of Salvia officinalis Mill. and S. tomentosa L. Grown under Different Salt Stress AB - This study was conducted to determine the response of Salviatomentosa Mill. and Salvia officinalis L. to different salinity levels.The salvia plants were grown in 8 L pots filled with the continuouslyaerated nutrient solution under different salt levels 1 (control), 2, 3, 4,5 and 6 dS m-1 in fully automated climate chambers. The fresh anddry weight of shoot and root, stem length, leaf area, SPAD, CO2fixation, root length, root diameter, root volume, leaf Na+, K+, Ca++ Clcontent, and amount of essential oil were determined. The increasingsalt level decreased significantly plant growth of both Salvia species.However, highly significant differences were found between twoSalvia species in terms of shoot and root biomass. Generally, S.tomentosa showed better plant growth performance in plant growthcompared to S. officinalis. The Na+ and Cl- content of the leavessignificantly increased with increasing salt concentration and theincrease was higher in S. tomentosa. The amount of K+ in the leavesdecreased due to the increasing salt concentration, while the amountof Ca++ varied depending on the dose. The study showed that theessential oil contents of the sage leaves could be increased with themoderate salt application. The increase in essential oil due to saltstress was higher in S. officinalis. The results showed that Salviaspecies can be cultivated in low and medium saline soils, second classwaters can be used for irrigation of sages and essential oil yield ofsages can be increased by using salt stress.
