Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Durum wheat emerged and survived moderate and severe salinity better than the alternative crops.
- Intervention effect Wheat produced more biomass and grain than field pea and dry bean under moderate salinity, but not more than canola.
- Intervention effect Field peas produced no grain under severe salinity.
- Intervention effect Dry bean produced no grain under severe salinity.
- Intervention effect Canola yielded 20.1% of its productivity in nonsaline media under severe salinity.
- Observation The combined salt tolerance ranking of the crop cultivars is Othello = Carneval < Radley < Kyle < Cyclone.
