Abstract
Plant responses to salt stress may be different, depending on the nitrogen source in the growth medium. Recently, several studies have been conducted using NH4 + instead of NO3 - in order to reduce the salinity deleterious effects in some species [1,2]. Sorghum is one of the world's leading cereal crops. It is a grass species, C4-type, adaptable to extreme conditions and some genotypes are salinity tolerance [2]. This study aimed to elucidate the physiological mechanisms of NH4 + grown sorghum plants [Sorghum bicolour (L.) mensch] which increase the tolerance to salinity.
