Abstract

Salvia is one of the important medicinal plants and identifying the optimal conditions for its proper growth under environmental stress can play an important role in reducing its production cost and productivity. In this regard, this research was carried out to evaluate the effects of water stress on germination components and to quantify the effect of stress on germination responses of Salvia at Ilam University in 2023. The experimental factors included water stress induced by polyethylene glycol (PEG) 6000 at six levels (zero, -0.1, -0.3, -0.5, -0.7, and -0.9 MPa) and two types of Salvia (included Salvia macrosiphon and Salvia officinalis). Based on the results, the mean of percentage of germination in different of stress levels in S. officinalis (38.2%), was more than to S. macrosiphon (20.8%). By increasing water stress to -0.3 MPa, the seed germination percentage of both Salvia species decreased by more than 50%. Based on the hydrotime analysis out of five probability distributions, three functions Normal, Logistic and Gumbel were convergence and according to the Corrected Akaike Information Criterion (AICc), adjusted coefficient of determination (R2adj), and root mean square error (RMSE) in both Salvia species it was found that Logistic distribution is the best model in justifying their germination. The estimation of the parameters of hydrotime models showed that the S. macrosiphon species has a lower hydrotime constant (θH) compared to the S. officinalis, which indicates a higher germination speed in S. macrosiphon. The value of basic water potential for 50% germination (ψb(50)) in S. officinalis (-0.611) was lower than its value in S. macrosiphon (-0.359), which indicates greater tolerance of S. officinalis against water stress in the germination stage compared to S. macrosiphon.
