Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Salinity had a limited effect on root rot in CX8303.
- Intervention effect Increasing salinity enhanced fruit acidity and total soluble solids in both cultivars.
- Intervention effect P. parasitica infection increased acidity and soluble solids in UC82B fruit under high salt.
- Intervention effect Fruit sodium and chloride concentrations rose proportionately with salt treatment.
- Observation Without disease, fruit Na and Cl levels were lower than levels in other plant tissues.
- Intervention effect Salt-enhanced root rot nearly doubled UC82B fruit sodium concentration.
- Intervention effect Fruit calcium and potassium levels declined moderately as salinity increased.
- Intervention effect Disease did not affect fruit calcium or potassium levels.
