Effect of Application of Amino Acids in Melon Seedlings Subjected to Salt Stress

It is well known that there is a large increase in some amino acids, such as proline, that are produced in the cytoplasm of plant cells under conditions of high salinity and that this effect plays a very important role in the osmotic shock that occurs in these situations. The results show that the application of amino acids favours both a correct balance of the different nutrients in the leaves and higher final production, as it reduces the damage caused by high salinity.
