Water deficit is a major limiting factor for turfgrass management in arid and semi-arid regions. This experiment was conducted in order to investigate morphophysiological responses of Bermuda grass (Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.) to water deficit stress and application of sodium nitroprusside and salicylic acid. The experiment was carried out based on completely randomized design with four replications. First factor included three water deficit stress levels (40, 70 and 100% of soil available water), and four levels of second factor were salicylic acid (SA) (2 mM), sodium nitroprusside (SNP) (500 µM), 2mM SA + 500 µM SNP and control (distilled water). Water deficit reduced shoot growth and relative water content. Whereas root growth, chlorophyll content, electrolyte leakage, total phenol, leaves antioxidant capacity and proline content increased with decreasing soil available water. Results showed that application of sodium nitroprusside and salicylic acid ameliorate adverse effects of water deficit in Bermuda grass by increasing leaves antioxidant capacity and proline and chlorophyll content as well as reducing electrolyte leakage and this effect was more noticeable in combined application of sodium nitroprusside and salicylic acid.
