e0“Salinity was found to significantly decrease photosynthetic rate, total chlorophyll content, cell membrane stability, reducing sugar content, plant height, leaf area index, test weight, number of grains/ear, number of tillers/ meter row length, grain and straw yield with a significant increase in nitrogen and protein content in grain compared to non saline field.”
