- Intervention effect Salinity reduced grain yield in both cultivars, less severely in DK961.
- Intervention effect Salinity slightly reduced DK961 thousand-seed weight.
- Intervention effect DK961 grain protein rose 0.2% at 50 mM NaCl.
- Intervention effect DK961 grain protein rose 0.7% at 100 mM NaCl.
- Intervention effect DK961 grain protein rose 3.5% at 150 mM NaCl.
- Intervention effect JN17 grain protein increased by 1.5%, 5.3%, and 9.9% at the respective salinity levels.
- Intervention effect DK961 flour yield fell 2.6%, 3.7%, and 3.9% at the respective salt treatments.
- Observation JN17 flour yield declined more than DK961 flour yield.
