Enhancing saline stress tolerance in soybean seedlings through optimal NH4 +/NO3 − ratios: a coordinated regulation of ions, hormones, and antioxidant potential

Abstract Background Nitrogen (N) availability is crucial in regulating plants’ abiotic stress resistance, particularly at the seedling stage. Nevertheless, plant responses to N under salinity conditions may vary depending on the soil’s NH4 + to NO3 − ratio. Methods In this study, we investigated the...
