The demand for salinity-tolerant plants is increasing due to the augmented use of effluent or low-quality water irrigation and the growing Purslane in coastal areas. Purslane (Portulaca oleracea) is a drought and salt-tolerant annual plant that contains high amounts of beneficial antioxidant vitamins and minerals. This study determines the effects of different concentrations of seawater application on the physiological growth and proximate mineral contents of these succulent weeds. The planting medium is top soil, and the weeds were subjected to six different sea water treatments. Each…mehr

Produktbeschreibung
The demand for salinity-tolerant plants is increasing due to the augmented use of effluent or low-quality water irrigation and the growing Purslane in coastal areas. Purslane (Portulaca oleracea) is a drought and salt-tolerant annual plant that contains high amounts of beneficial antioxidant vitamins and minerals. This study determines the effects of different concentrations of seawater application on the physiological growth and proximate mineral contents of these succulent weeds. The planting medium is top soil, and the weeds were subjected to six different sea water treatments. Each treatment was replicated five times using Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD), and the treatment means were compared by Least Significance Differences (LSD) at 5% probability level. The findings suggested that Purslane can be utilized in salt-effected soil and helps reduce the salt element in soil. This plant can become an alternative for a healthy lifestyle due to its good antioxidant and Omega-3 content.
