Other claims from this paper (12)
- Intervention effect Root applied glycinebetaine harmed canola growth.
- Intervention effect Foliar glycinebetaine improved canola growth.
- Observation Dunkeld responded more strongly than Cyclone.
- Intervention effect Foliar glycinebetaine improved proline accumulation and plant water status.
- Intervention effect Glycinebetaine increased photosynthetic CO2 fixation, stomatal conductance and water use efficiency.
- Observation Dunkeld was more responsive to glycinebetaine.
- Intervention effect Salt stress reduced energy trapping efficiency.
- Mechanism Salt stress damaged the oxygen evolving complex.
- Mechanism Salt stress caused chronic photoinhibition through over reduction of QA.
- Intervention effect Exogenous glycinebetaine protected the PSII oxygen evolving centre.
- Intervention effect Exogenous glycinebetaine maintained PSII activity.
- Method / resource Fluorescence parameters may rapidly identify salt tolerant canola genotypes.
