Author(s): Muhammad Saif Ullah and Naveen Dilawar
Abstract: Nicotiana tabacum L is a well-known crop of Swabi and people called it the land of maize and tobacco. Nicotiana tabacum L play a vital role in the economy of a country because of its high price and demand over worldwide. My present study aimed to observed the effect of Salicylic acid on the phytochemical substances of Nicotiana tabacum L grown under Heavy Metal Lead Stress. After Propagation Nicotiana tabacum L treated with Pb stress at different concentration like 5 ppm, 5 ppm+ Sa, 9 ppm, 9 ppm +Sa and Control. Results revealed that those plants which have treated with Pb stress like 5 ppm and 9 ppm showed decline in the phytochemical substance like CAT, PO, ROS, GA3 AND ABA. While those plants which have treated with Pb as well as Sa like 5 ppm+ Sa and 9 ppm+Sa showed progress in the phytochemical substances of Nicotiana tabacum L. Therefore, I can say that salicylic acid is the key product to remove the heavy metal stress and promotes the primary and secondary growth of Nicotiana tabacum L.
