Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect NaCl stress (75 mmol.L-1) strongly inhibited cowpea plant growth relative to nutrient solution alone, in a greenhouse.
- Intervention effect NaCl stress caused a disturbance in cowpea plant-water balance relative to nutrient solution alone.
- Intervention effect NaCl stress increased the total content of inorganic solutes in cowpea plant parts, due mainly to accumulation of Na+ and Cl-.
- Intervention effect Adding CaCl2 to the root environment of salt-stressed cowpea reduced Na+ content, especially in roots.
- Intervention effect Adding CaCl2 did not ameliorate the salt-stress effects on cowpea plant-water relations and growth.
- Intervention effect NaCl stress reduced soluble amino nitrogen in cowpea root tips and in the youngest trifoliate leaves.
- Intervention effect NaCl stress reduced proline levels in cowpea root tips relative to nutrient solution alone.
