This species grows in warm and dry areas of the southwest in Iran. In present study, the effect of salinity consist of 0, 50, 100, 150 and 200 (Mm) (NaCl) with SA treatments consist of 0, 0.5 and 1.0 (mM) in Factorial plan and quite random in 8 repeat was cultured in greenhouse to investigate and to compare activity of some biochemical and physiological features of this species in aerial parts. Data was analysed by SPSS statistic software and Duncan test. Results showed that fresh weight (FW) and malondialdehyde (MDA) decreased by sodium chloride but treatment of salicylic acid (SA) was not significantly changed. The amount of protein content was not significantly. The proline content increased by NaCl. The first, SOD and PPO activities enhanced significantly up to 100 Mm NaCl and then decreased and POX activity and H2O2 content decreased by NaCl and SA treatment. Totally results showed that range of tolerance this species was up to 100 mM NaCl and SA treatment decreased effect of stress and partly improve them.
