- Intervention effect Under saline conditions, growth and chlorophyll concentration of maize did not change noticeably.
- Intervention effect Salinity decreased leaf water potential and osmotic potential in maize.
- Intervention effect Salinity decreased stomatal conductance and root hydraulic conductance in maize.
- Intervention effect Boron had no effect on maize in these treatments.
- Association Reduced aquaporin functionality in NaCl-treated maize could be related to reduced B concentrations in roots and leaves.
