- Intervention effect Salinity levels significantly differed for height, chlorophyll a, leaf area index and proline.
- Intervention effect Salicylic acid significantly affected chlorophyll a.
- Intervention effect Salicylic acid effects on other measured traits were not significant.
- Association Plant height declined significantly as soil salt increased.
- Intervention effect Minimum height at the third salinity level was 111 cm, without significant difference from 50 mM.
- Intervention effect Salinity levels 50 and 100 mM did not significantly differ.
- Intervention effect Chlorophyll a was lowest at 100 mM salinity, at 0.2001 mg per g fresh leaf weight.
- Association Leaf area decreased with increasing salinity.
- Observation Proline was highest in normal conditions at 1.351 mmol per g fresh leaf weight.
- Association Chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b correlated positively and significantly.
- Association Chlorophyll a and proline had a nonsignificant negative correlation.
- Association Leaf area index correlated positively with water content, chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b.
