Other claims from this paper (15)
- Intervention effect Salt reduced growth most strongly in the cultivars Mozart and Mona Lisa.
- Observation Mozart and Mona Lisa showed a severe senescence response at 180 mM NaCl.
- Observation Mozart barely survived the 180 mM NaCl treatment.
- Observation Desiree and Russett Burbank were more tolerant to salt and showed no senescence after salt treatment.
- Observation Sensitive and tolerant cultivars clearly differed in Na(+) homeostasis.
- Observation Mozart had the highest leaf Na(+) concentration of all cultivars.
- Observation Mozart had a high Na(+) shoot distribution index compared with Desiree.
- Association A positive correlation was found between salt tolerance and stem Na(+) accumulation.
- Mechanism Stem Na(+) accumulation points to a role in salt tolerance.
- Observation In stem tissue, Mozart accumulated more H2O2 than the tolerant cultivars.
- Observation In stem tissue, Mozart accumulated less proline than the tolerant cultivars.
- Observation Proline dehydrogenase (PDH) expression was reduced in both Mozart and Desiree.
- Observation Pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthetase 1 (P5CS1) gene expression increased in Desiree.
- Observation Pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthetase 1 (P5CS1) gene expression did not increase in Mozart.
- Mechanism Mechanisms of tolerance may reside in the capacity of stem Na(+) accumulation, resulting in reduced Na(+) transport to the leaves.
