Other claims from this paper (13)
- Association Increasing NaCl decreased wheat shoot and root fresh and dry matter.
- Association Increasing NaCl decreased broad bean shoot and root fresh and dry matter.
- Association Salt stress progressively reduced maize fresh and dry matter yield.
- Intervention effect Salinity produced no significant change in parsley shoot and root fresh and dry matter.
- Intervention effect Cotton fresh and dry matter fell at higher salinity.
- Association Rising osmotic stress reduced leaf area in maize, wheat, cotton, broad bean and parsley.
- Association Salinization reduced total pigment concentration in maize.
- Association Salinization reduced total pigment concentration in cotton.
- Observation Wheat pigments remained largely unaffected up to 0.6 MPa NaCl.
- Observation Parsley pigments remained largely unaffected up to 0.9 MPa.
- Observation Above these levels, wheat and parsley pigments declined significantly with salinity.
- Intervention effect Broad bean total pigments had nonsignificant changes at all salinity levels.
- Intervention effect Sprayed GA3 ameliorated salinity damage to fresh and dry matter, leaf area and pigments in the tested plants.
