Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Salicylic acid combined with proline improved cucumber growth and yield under non-saline conditions, with T4 highest.
- Intervention effect Saline irrigation compromised cucumber growth and yield, most severely at EC 12.0 dS/m.
- Intervention effect At EC 6.0 dS/m, T2 slightly ameliorated salinity effects on fruit yield.
- Intervention effect At EC 6.0 dS/m, T2 slightly ameliorated salinity effects on fruit nutritive composition.
- Intervention effect At EC 6.0 dS/m, T3 slightly ameliorated salinity effects on fruit nutritive composition.
- Intervention effect Cucumber tolerated irrigation up to EC 6.0 dS/m without significant detrimental effects on growth, yield and fruit nutrition.
