Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation H. marinum had the highest tolerance under saline waterlogging and maintained water status, metabolism and carbon fixation.
- Observation H. marinum accumulated the lowest root and shoot sodium and chloride concentrations.
- Observation H. glaucum showed intermediate tolerance with reduced water content.
- Observation H. vulgare failed to survive saline waterlogging.
- Mechanism Authors propose that intact aerenchyma supports oxygen transport and salinity tolerance in H. marinum.
- Mechanism Salt-induced lateral root branching promotes sodium sequestration in cortex, limiting translocation.
- Mechanism The proposed aeration and sequestration system stabilizes root function and whole-plant resilience, but is weak in cultivated barley.
