Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Salt stress at 150 mM NaCl markedly reduced shoot fresh biomass in safflower at the vegetative stage.
- Intervention effect Salt stress reduced relative water content, water potential and osmotic potential in safflower.
- Intervention effect Salt stress affected leaf water potential, osmotic potential and turgor potential more strongly than relative water content in safflower.
- Observation Safflower-39 and Safflower-78 had lower shoot biomass production under saline conditions.
- Observation The remaining safflower accessions had intermediate shoot biomass production under saline conditions.
- Method / resource None of the water relation parameters discriminated among the safflower lines for salt tolerance, compared with shoot biomass production.
- Observation Inter-cultivar variation for salt tolerance in safflower was large with respect to shoot biomass production across 10 accessions.
