Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the impact of sodium chloride (2000 ppm) and salicylic acid (SA) concentrations (0, 50, 100, 150, and 200 ppm) on the nutritional value and germination of radish microgreens. The experiment was based on a completely random design with three replicates. Applying SA caused a noticeable increase in protein content; in particular, at SA concentrations of 100 and 1...
