Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Salt stress reduced transpiration, stomatal conductance and photosynthesis.
- Intervention effect Salt stress reduced net photosynthetic rate and water-use efficiency.
- Association The salt-related decrease was greater in C. olitorius and at higher stress magnitude.
- Observation C. olitorius accumulated more sodium and chloride than C. capsularis.
- Observation C. olitorius had a lower root and shoot potassium-to-sodium ratio.
- Intervention effect Kinetin pretreatment improved photosynthesis, transpiration and water-use efficiency under salt stress.
- Intervention effect Glutamic acid pretreatment improved the same physiological traits under salt stress.
- Intervention effect Calcium nitrate pretreatment improved the same physiological traits and was most effective.
