Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect High NaCl and pH reduced dry matter, fruit yield and chlorophyll relative to normal nutrient solution.
- Intervention effect Potassium supplementation increased dry matter, chlorophyll and fruit yield.
- Observation High salinity harmed growth more than high pH.
- Intervention effect Adding 35 mM NaCl increased membrane permeability.
- Intervention effect Raising pH from 5.5 to 8.5 increased membrane permeability.
- Intervention effect Supplementary potassium decreased membrane permeability.
- Intervention effect Elevated pH increased tissue sodium concentration.
- Intervention effect High NaCl lowered plant potassium concentration.
- Intervention effect Supplementary potassium increased plant potassium concentration.
- Recommendation Supplementary potassium may improve strawberry growth, fruit yield and quality under saline conditions.
