Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Barley seeds germinated at lower osmotic potentials in saline conditions than in iso-osmotic PEG solutions.
- Intervention effect Barley seeds generally germinated faster in saline conditions than in iso-osmotic PEG solutions.
- Association External salinity was positively correlated with seed salt content.
- Association Water content increased over time in barley seeds incubated in NaCl.
- Association Sodium concentration increased over time in barley seeds incubated in NaCl.
- Association Germination percentage decreased at higher temperatures.
- Association Germination index increased at higher temperatures.
- Association Seed sodium concentration increased at higher temperatures.
- Mechanism The authors suggest sodium uptake generates additional osmotic potential that enables water absorption and faster germination at lower water potential.
