Other claims from this paper (13)
- Intervention effect Increasing salinity decreased shoot dry matter.
- Intervention effect Increasing salinity decreased root dry matter.
- Intervention effect N application increased growth at all salinity levels.
- Intervention effect Combined nitrogen sources yielded more total dry biomass than single sources.
- Intervention effect Shoot nutrient concentrations generally increased with salinity.
- Intervention effect Nitrate treatment gave higher cation concentration than other nitrogen forms.
- Intervention effect Ammonium nitrogen inhibited cation uptake relative to nitrate under salinity.
- Intervention effect Urea nitrogen inhibited cation uptake relative to nitrate under salinity.
- Observation Shoot phosphorus and chloride concentration followed a trend opposite cations.
- Mechanism N uptake appeared influenced by soil–plant cation–anion balance.
- Intervention effect All forms of N enhanced shoot N concentration in the stated rank order.
- Intervention effect Fertilizer treatments did not significantly differ in shoot trace element concentration.
- Recommendation Authors suggest mixed ammoniacal and nitrate N could favor growth in saline soils.
