Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect IL-112 increased net photosynthesis at low salinity relative to control.
- Intervention effect Anand-2 had unchanged photosynthetic rate at low salinity.
- Mechanism Photosynthesis declined at higher salinity, primarily because stomatal conductance declined.
- Observation Transpiration declined more than photosynthesis under saline irrigation.
- Observation Water use efficiency increased under saline irrigation.
- Observation The small water use efficiency increase in Anand-2 did not sustain growth.
- Mechanism A relative rise in sodium versus potassium may inhibit growth.
