Seed germination and early development are delicate events often influenced by various environmental factors. Among these factors, the accumulation of salts and heavy metals in the soil is noteworthy. This study aimed to observe the effect of priming with solutions of sodium nitroprusside, polyethylene glycol 6000, and potassium nitrate on the germination of Phaseolus vulgaris seeds exposed to toxic conditions of iron and sodium chloride. Seeds were germinated on plates placed in a growth chamber at a constant temperature of 25°C and a 12-hour photoperiod. The percentage of germination, germination speed, root and shoot lengths, catalase, peroxidase activities, and malondialdehyde content were evaluated. Exposure to high concentrations of sodium chloride and iron reduced germination percentage, germination speed, root and shoot lengths of treated plants. Only sodium nitroprusside treatment mitigated the effects of stressors. No increase in malondialdehyde content was observed in any treatment, suggesting no lipid peroxidation of membranes. However, all treatments showed increased catalase activity, possibly indicating oxidative stress and metabolic damage. Sodium nitroprusside stands out as a stress alleviator for sodium chloride and iron accumulation during the germination phase.
