Other claims from this paper (13)
- Observation S. persica maintained complete survival at severe salinity.
- Observation L. shawii maintained complete survival at severe salinity.
- Observation The two tolerant shrubs maintained relatively stable water status and photosynthetic performance.
- Observation The two tolerant shrubs had reduced membrane injury and lipid peroxidation.
- Association Tolerance of S. persica and L. shawii was associated with higher proline and soluble sugars.
- Association Tolerance of S. persica and L. shawii was associated with lower shoot sodium accumulation relative to H. salicornicum.
- Association Tolerance of S. persica and L. shawii was associated with more stable potassium status relative to H. salicornicum.
- Association Tolerance of S. persica and L. shawii was associated with higher antioxidant enzyme activity and radical scavenging.
- Observation C. comosum survival fell to 83.3% under severe salinity.
- Observation C. comosum showed dehydration and photosynthetic inhibition.
- Observation C. comosum had weak antioxidant activation and pronounced membrane damage.
- Observation H. salicornicum had intermediate performance and higher physiological costs.
- Observation Overall tolerance ranked S. persica above L. shawii above H. salicornicum above C. comosum.
