The role of γ-aminobutyric acid and salicylic acid in heat stress tolerance under salinity conditions in Origanum vulgare L.

ABSTRACT: Origanum vulgare L., a medicinal and aromatic herb, has been used for hundreds of years. This plant contains valuable chemical compounds that can be used as medicine for treatment. On the other hand, a gradual increase in the planet's average temperature could negatively affect the growth and the composition of the O. vulgare. For this reason, in this study, the effect of two protective compounds, namely salicylic acid (SA) and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), on temperature and salinity stress conditions was investigated. Oregano plants were grown at 23/12°C temperature as control and 27/16°C heat stress in the greenhouse (16/8 h photoperiod) for one months. The plants were treated with GABA and SA and subjected to salt stress for 30 days. Subsequently, the plant's physiological, biochemic
