Abstract Salt stress is one of the major abiotic stress in plants. However,
traditional approaches are not always efficient in conferring salt tolerance. Experiments were conducted to understand the role of Trichoderma spp. (T. harzianum
and T. viride) in growth, chlorophyll (Chl) synthesis, and proline accumulation of
C. pepo exposed to salinity stress. There were three salt stress (50, 100, and
150 mM NaCl) lavels and three different Trichoderma inoculation viz. T. harzianum, T. viride, and T. harzianum + T. viride. Salt stress significantly declined the
growth in terms of the shoot and root lengths; however, it was improved by the… More >
