Other claims from this paper (17)
- Observation At 200 mM, salt damage ranked E. sphaerocephalus lowest, then L. fulgens, O. biennis and P. frutescens.
- Observation SOD did not show an obvious protective role in P. frutescens.
- Observation Changes in CAT and POD and soluble sugars, proteins and proline indicated P. frutescens sensitivity to saline and alkaline stress.
- Intervention effect Root growth was significantly suppressed in all four plants.
- Intervention effect Saline solution at 100 and 200 mM significantly reduced average tensile strength of O. biennis.
- Intervention effect At 200 mM, saline–alkali solution significantly reduced elongation of E. sphaerocephalus.
- Intervention effect At 200 mM, saline–alkali solution significantly reduced elongation of L. fulgens.
- Intervention effect At 200 mM, saline–alkali solution increased soil detachment of the E. sphaerocephalus root–soil composite.
- Intervention effect All three saline concentrations reduced pullout resistance in all four plants.
- Association Tensile resistance had a negative power relation to root diameter in all four species.
- Association Tensile strength had a negative power relation to root diameter only for L. fulgens at 0–50 mM saline solution.
- Association Elongation and root diameter had no significant correlation across the four plants.
- Observation P. frutescens had the greatest tensile resistance and strength.
- Observation P. frutescens had the lowest elongation rate.
- Observation L. fulgens had the greatest pullout resistance.
- Observation P. frutescens and L. fulgens had comparable root–soil erosion resistance.
- Recommendation The authors judged L. fulgens more suitable than the other plants for soil reinforcement on saline slopes.
