Other claims from this paper (14)
- Intervention effect Salinity decreased yield of bread wheat by 61% from the control to 15 dS m−1
- Intervention effect Salinity negatively impacted thousand grain weight and total biomass of bread wheat
- Intervention effect Salinity increased carbon isotope composition and Na concentrations in roots, shoots and grains of bread wheat
- Intervention effect Chlorophyll content of bread wheat showed a modest decline under salinity
- Intervention effect Salinity slightly increased total nitrogen concentration and most mineral levels of bread wheat
- Mechanism The increase in grain nitrogen and mineral concentrations of bread wheat under salinity is a passive concentration effect associated with reduced TGW
- Association Bread wheat genotypes varied significantly in yield, biomass and TGW
- Association Bread wheat genotypes varied significantly in physiological traits and grain quality
- Observation ACSAD 981 performed best under saline conditions among the highest-yielding genotypes under control conditions
- Observation ACSAD 1147 performed best under saline conditions among the highest-yielding genotypes under control conditions
- Observation No trade-off was observed between yield and grain quality parameters of bread wheat
- Association Chlorophyll content under control conditions was positively correlated with yield across bread wheat genotypes
- Observation Under salinity stress, grain magnesium concentration was the strongest predictor of genotypic differences in bread wheat
- Association Under salinity stress, grain traits were positively correlated with yield in bread wheat
