One year old Simarouba glauca seedlings were subjected to water stress for 4, 8, 12, and 16 days. It was observed that water stress led to a decrease in the potassium, magnesium, and calcium content in the roots, stems, and leaves of S. glauca compared to the unstressed control. However, foliar application of ABA, SA, Putrescine, and GABA resulted in an increase in the potassium, magnesium, and calcium content in the stressed plants. Specifically, SA, Putrescine, and GABA treatments induced the accumulation of potassium. These results suggest that SA, Putrescine, GABA, and ABA play vital roles in enhancing drought tolerance in Simarouba glauca by modulating the accumulation of key minerals under water stress conditions.}, comment = {1997-0838}, journal = {Journal of Stress Physiology & Biochemistry}, keywords = {Plant growth regulators, Simarouba glauca, Salicylic acid, Putriscine, GABA and Abscisic acid, Water stress}, year = {2025}, }
