Abstract
NaCl salt stress induced changes in growth and enzyme activities in blackgram (Phaseolus mungo L.) seeds during germination were studied. A decrease in germination percentage, root length, shoot length, and fresh mass was noticed with an increase in NaCl concentration. With the increase in NaCl concentration and duration of stress proline content increased and catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POX) and polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activities decreased.
