- Intervention effect Shoot elongation was inhibited at -16 bars after 23 days.
- Intervention effect New branch number did not differ under salinity.
- Intervention effect New branch node number was below control.
- Intervention effect Leaf expansion was inhibited at -4, -8 and -16 bars.

- Intervention effect Light respiration was reduced at -4, -8 and -16 bars after 16 days.
- Observation Stomatal resistance increased dramatically at -16 bars.
- Intervention effect Leaf water potential was markedly reduced at -16 bars.
- Intervention effect Leaf relative water content was markedly reduced at -8 and -16 bars.
