Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation More absorbed sodium than potassium was transported to shoots at both salinities.
- Intervention effect Most potassium fluxes fell by about 40% at CS 100 relative to CS 10.
- Intervention effect Potassium root accumulation increased at CS 100 relative to CS 10.
- Intervention effect Potassium fluxes remained constant for at least 40 hours after raising salinity.
- Intervention effect Sodium fluxes increased six-fold immediately after salinity rose.
- Intervention effect After lowering salinity, prior high salinity inhibited sodium transport to shoots to 35% of CS 10 controls.
- Association Osmotic adjustment and sodium accumulation had similar time courses after salinity increased.
- Mechanism Accumulated sodium was sufficient to account for increased sap osmotic pressure.
