Other claims from this paper (9)

Observation Nursery screening classified 16 genotypes highly tolerant, nine tolerant, 15 moderately tolerant, and 60 susceptible.
Intervention effect Salinity decreased chlorophyll content by up to 82.3%.
Intervention effect Proline increased significantly, by up to 60.9%.
Intervention effect Carotenoids increased significantly, by up to 72.5%.
Intervention effect Phenols increased significantly, by up to 62.1%.
Intervention effect Total soluble proteins increased significantly.
Association Hydrogen peroxide and electrolyte leakage increased with salinity.
Observation PAU‐212, CH‐52, KH‐314, and YL‐581 showed greater tolerance across treatments.
Recommendation The authors propose proline, carotenoids, phenols, and soluble proteins as biochemical markers of salt tolerance.

Physiological Processes Affected by Low Night Temperatures in Sweet Pepper Plants

E. Gorbe Sánchez; E. Heuvelink; C. Stanghellini Procedia Environmental Sciences 2015. doi:10.1016/j.proenv.2015.07.189

Other claims from this paper (13)

Intervention effect Low night temperature did not increase transpiration of sweet pepper
Intervention effect Low night temperature enhanced the accumulation of sucrose and starch in sweet pepper leaves during the night
Association Starch accumulation did not affect photosynthesis in sweet pepper, due to feedback inhibition
Intervention effect Photo-inhibition was observed in sweet pepper after 7 cold nights
Intervention effect CO2 uptake of sweet pepper was not affected after 7 cold nights
Intervention effect Total dry weight production of sweet pepper was not affected after 7 cold nights
Intervention effect Low night temperature decreased specific leaf area of sweet pepper
Intervention effect Low night temperature led to shorter sweet pepper plants
Intervention effect Low night temperature led to thicker sweet pepper leaves
Intervention effect Low night temperature led to smaller sweet pepper leaves
Mechanism Loss of turgor from reduced relative water content reduced stem elongation and leaf expansion in sweet pepper
Mechanism The decrease of cell elongation in sweet pepper was due to reduced water uptake capacity
Intervention effect Low night temperature did not stop the clock that regulates sweet pepper plant processes
