Abstract

The scarcity of water is a severe environmental constraint to plant productivity. The exogenous application of salicylic acid (SA) has been found very effective in reducing the adverse effects of drought stress. A pot experiment was conducted to determine the drought mitigating effect of Salicylic acid on rice based on Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications during the 2017-2018 growing season at Dhaka, Bangladesh. The treatments of salicylic acid including 0, 250, 500, 750 and 1000 µMm-2 concentrations and drought stress consisted of control, moderate and severe stresses. Significantly higher number of panicle hill-1, number of filled grain hill-1, and number of unfilled grain hill-1, 1000 grains weight, grain yield, straw yield and harvest index were found in plants treated with 750 µMm-2 SA compared with other treatments and control plants. Results signify the role of SA in regulating the drought response of plants and suggest that SA could be used as a potential protectant, for improving plant growth and productivity under water stress.
