Foliar Application of Melatonin Positively Affects the Physio-Biochemical Characteristics of Cotton (<i>Gossypium hirsutum</i> L.) under the Combined Effects of Low Temperature and Salinity Stress

Foliar Application of Melatonin Positively Affects the Physio-Biochemical Characteristics of Cotton (<i>Gossypium hirsutum</i> L.) under the Combined Effects of Low Temperature and Salinity Stress

Low temperature and soil salinization during cotton sowing and seedling adversely affect cotton productivity. Exogenous melatonin (MT) can alleviate the damage caused to plants under non-biological stress; thus, applying MT is a means to improve the growth condition of crops under stress. However, a...
