Background: Salinity is one major abiotic stress affecting photosynthesis, plant growth, and development, resulting in low-input crops. Although photosynthesis underlies the substantial productivity and biomass storage of crop yield, the response of the sunflower photosynthetic machinery to salinity imposition and how HS mitigates the salinity-induced photosynthetic injury remains largely unclear. Seed priming with 0.
