Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Salt stress relief significantly increased cotton root and shoot growth rates.
- Intervention effect Salt stress relief significantly increased root vigor.
- Observation Growth rate and root vigor recovery was more pronounced in Lumianyan 37.
- Intervention effect Root malondialdehyde content decreased after salt recovery.
- Intervention effect Root superoxide dismutase and peroxidase activities decreased after salt recovery.
- Observation In recovered roots, Lumianyan 37 had lower MDA content and POD activity.
- Observation In recovered roots, Lumianyan 37 had higher SOD and CAT activities.
- Intervention effect Recovered roots had lower soluble sugar and free amino acid content than stressed roots.
- Observation The decline in root solutes was particularly pronounced in Lumianyan 37.
- Mechanism The authors relate recovery capacity to antioxidative capacity and use of root organic solutes.
