Lippia alba (Mill.) N.E.Br. ex Britton and P. Wilson is a native plant of Colombia, widespread throughout Central South America, used for thousands years by pre-Columbian populations, who already knew the many beneficial properties this species (e.g., antifungal, antibacterial, antiviral anti-inflammatory activities). The essential oil L. rich in phytochemicals with antioxidant activity that could be very useful both pharmacology biotechnology application, such as protection horticultural crops sensitive to salinity. To enhance salt tolerance, seed-priming treatment was performed. We evaluated effect biostimulant on response stress bean species, Phaseolus acutifolius (cv Blue Tepary), Mexico, pre-Columbians well nowadays. Bean seeds were primed solution 0.5 mL/L alba, germinated after 2 weeks acclimation, seedlings subjected stress, watering 40 mM 80 NaCl solutions. Four later, biochemical parameters order test effects treatments fitness. Primed showed an increase tolerance during germination, plants revealing higher water uptake, increased chlorophylls, proline content index. also improved Ca2+ concentration shoots stressed plants, more quickly activating enzymatic responses salinity—in particular superoxide dismutase, polyphenol oxidase, catalase, peroxidase ascorbate peroxidase—compared unprimed plants. In conclusion, found strong elicitor against osmotic oxidative induced salinity, suggesting possibility its future utilization agriculture.

To ameliorate plants’ response to environmental stresses, seed priming can be a useful tool; it consists of the pre-exposure seeds mild stress, which improves plant adaptation future exposure adverse growth conditions. In our previous studies, with polyamines (2.5 mM putrescine, 2.5 spermine, and spermidine) salt acclimation have been proven an effective treatment in enhancing tolerance tomato cultivars since they induced better physiological stressful condition. The persistence memory first (priming) stress retrieval such remembered information upon later new play important role applicability agriculture. Therefore, aim this work was detection by polyamine tomatoes. Primed not-primed were stored at +4 °C for 2 years after original treatment; then, germinated sown non-saline soil irrigated 80 160 NaCl solutions until fruit production. results confirm increase primed plants compared ones, indicating presence long-term somatic memory. comparison not primed, produced quality fruits, i.e., higher weight, water content, amount carotenoids, soluble sugars, phenols. determine if inherited offspring, then collected from (generation G1), further experiments undertaken growing G1 under same irrigation regime as parental generation. After 45 days growth, both antioxidants osmolyte amounts enhanced, leading improvement saline conditions offspring confirming already observed These demonstrate, time, intergenerational tomatoes may pave pathway agricultural application priming.
