Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect NaCl-treated bean plants had fewer secondary roots than control plants.
- Intervention effect Root epidermal cells of stressed bean plants had a less regular shape and disposition than the isodiametric, uniformly placed epidermal cells of control plants.
- Intervention effect Cortical cells of stressed plants were irregular and interdigitated, decreasing the volume of intercellular spaces relative to the round cortical cells of control plants.
- Intervention effect Presence of 80 mM NaCl did not result in significant differences in number, shape or distribution of cell organelles.
- Observation Membrane vesiculation was often observed in cells of NaCl-treated bean plants.
- Intervention effect Adding 80 mM NaCl to the growth medium considerably increased leakage of solutes from intact bean roots, especially K+ and Ca2+.
