Germination rate of cucumber seeds under salt stress for A 72 h and B 120 h in different concentrations of AM-zein and AM-zein-SA solutions and C Germination rate and germination potential of cucumber seeds treated with different concentrations of carrier under 120 mmol salt stress after 72 h. The experimental data were measured three replicates; a statistically significant difference between treatments compared with control is indicated by different small alphabets (a–i). Error bars indicate the least considerable value (LSD) at p ≤ 0.05 among the treatments
