High salinity concentration led to negative effects on all indicators studied. Treatment with the chemical mutagen NAN3 resulted in an increase in germination rate, plant height, total leaf surface area, net photosynthesis rate, leaf specific gravity and leaf area index. On the other side. Treatment with chemical mutagens under salinity stress conditions at low concentration (1 mM) outperformed all treatments and control. Therefore, we recommend soaking the seeds with a concentration of (1 mM) NAN3, due to its role in improving germination and the morphological and morphological characteristics of the local tobacco variety.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><strong>Keywords<\/strong>: soaking seeds<strong>, <\/strong>NAN3, tobacco plant, NaCl.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\">\u00a0Full paper in English: <a href=\"http:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/SjarEn\/wp-content\/uploads\/v12n6p1.pdf\">PDF<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ahmed soufi(1)* (1).
