Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Salt stress reduced plant growth and shoot and root weight.
- Intervention effect Salt stress hindered phosphorus and nitrogen uptake.
- Intervention effect Mycorrhizal salt-stressed plants had greater root and shoot biomass than uninoculated plants.
- Intervention effect Salt stress increased lipid peroxidation and reduced membrane stability in non-AM plants.
- Intervention effect The fungal endophyte significantly reduced lipid peroxidation and membrane damage under salt stress.
- Intervention effect AM plants maintained higher potassium:sodium and calcium:sodium ratios than non-AM plants.
- Intervention effect Salinity increased proline and glycine betaine accumulation in both AM and non-AM plants.
- Intervention effect Osmolyte synthesis and accumulation increased more in mycorrhizal plants.
- Intervention effect Salinity significantly increased antioxidant enzyme activities in both plant groups.
- Mechanism The authors linked increased osmolyte accumulation after AM inoculation to osmotic balance under salt stress.
