Sodium chloride was added to the soil to obtain 0, 15, 30,45 or 60 mM NaCl. Three different doses of solid humus (0, 1 or 2g kg(-1)) were applied to the soil one month prior to planting. High levels of salt (45 and 60 mM NaCl) had negative impacts on the dry weight and the N, P. K, Ca, Mg, Fe, Cu, Zn and Mn uptake oldie maize plants. The highest mean dry weight, Mg and Mn uptake were observed for the 1 g humus kg(-1) treatment and the highest mean Cu content was in the 2 g humus kg(-1) treatment. On the contrary, the highest mean uptakes of N and P were found in the soils in which Mimic substances was not added. The interactions of NaCl and the soil humus content were significant for the uptake of Cu (p <= 0.01). and we found that adding humus increased the content fa in maize plants under slight salt stress (15 mM NaCl) (p <= 0.01).eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPlant sciencesHumic substancesMaizeNutrient elementsSalinitySalt stressOrganic-matterCrop plantsGrowthToleranceAccumulationCalciumTomatoYieldAcidZea maysArticle0002920566000252-s2.0-79958261306171177391Plant sciencesPlant Biostimulant; Humic Substances; Humates
