Other claims from this paper (18)
- Association Cultivar, NaCl, and their interaction significantly affected root length, leaf potassium, photosynthesis, gas exchange, and wax fractions.
- Association Branch number, root dry weight, root-to-shoot ratio, and leaf nitrogen varied significantly by cultivar only.
- Intervention effect Nubaria 1 had the smallest shoot dry weight reduction at 200 mM NaCl.
- Intervention effect Nubaria 1 maintained leaf potassium across salinity levels.
- Observation Nubaria 1 retained the highest pod number at 200 mM NaCl.
- Observation Nubaria 1 had the lowest induction of all 11 genes at both stress levels.
- Intervention effect Sakha 5 root length rose by 142% under 200 mM NaCl.
- Observation Sakha 5 had the highest gene fold induction.
- Observation Sakha 5 produced no pods at 200 mM NaCl.
- Observation Giza 716 had the highest control photosynthesis rate.
- Observation Giza 716 was intermediate for most traits.
- Association Net photosynthesis declined with increasing NaCl in all cultivars.
- Association Intercellular CO₂ rose with increasing NaCl in all cultivars.
- Observation Total epicuticular wax peaked at 150 mM NaCl in all cultivars.
- Association Epicuticular wax declined at 200 mM NaCl in Sakha 5 and Giza 716.
- Observation CER1 induction continued in Sakha 5 at 200 mM NaCl.
- Observation Two PCA components explained 70.7% of trait variance.
- Recommendation Leaf potassium and photosynthesis under stress are recommended for early salt-tolerance phenotyping.
