Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Drought reduced growth rates in young S. saponaria plants.
- Observation Growth did not recover after rehydration of drought-stressed S. saponaria.
- Intervention effect Drought decreased the chlorophyll a/b ratio in S. saponaria.
- Intervention effect Flooding did not change growth in S. saponaria.
- Intervention effect Flooded S. saponaria had higher root total soluble carbohydrate content.
- Observation The authors characterize young S. saponaria as drought-intolerant with low recovery capacity but tolerant of flooding and post-flooding periods.
