What is Microbial amelioration of salinity stress in endangered accessions of Iranian licorice ( Glycyrrhiza glabra L.) about?
## Background __Glycyrrhiza glabra__ L. is a medicinal and industrial plant that has gone extinct due to different abiotic stress caused by climate change. To understand how the plant-associated microorganism can support this plant under salinity, we collected sixteen Iranian accessions of __G. glabra__ L., inoculated their rhizomes with __Azotobacter__ sp. (two levels, bacterial treatments, and no-bacterial treatments, and grown them under salinity stress (NaCl levels; 0, and 200 mM). ## Results Two accessions of Bardsir and Bajgah significantly showed higher resistant to salinity, for example by increasing crown diameter (11.05 and 11 cm, respectively) compared to an average diameter of 9.5 in other accessions. Azotobacter inoculation caused a significant increase in plant height and crown diameter. Among studied accessions, Kashmar (46.21%) and Ilam (44.95%) had the highest rate of membrane stability index (MSI). Evaluation of enzyme activity represented that bacterial application under salinity, increased polyphenol oxidase (PPO) (0.21 U mg^−1^ protein), peroxidase (POD) (3.09 U mg^−1^ protein U mg^−1^ protein), and phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) (17.85 U mg^−1^ protein) act
