Abstract: : One of the most crucial mechanisms for plant adaptation is the alteration of the root system’s architecture in response to environmental stress. In terms of root morphophysiological changes, salinity and drought stress are the two main environmental stresses that plants should be able to withstand. Thus, this study’s objective was an evaluation.of the root morpho-physiological alteration caused by environmental stress in the Iranian medicinal endemic Stachys multicaulis.Supplies and Procedures: Three-day watering intervals and a set of salinity (0, 5 and 25 ds mG1) were employed in three distinct soil textures in pots as part of the drought treatments. The design was fully randomized. Plant root morphological changes under stress in three different soil textures were investigated over time.

Keywords: Drought, salinity, soil texture, root system, Stachys multicaulis.
