Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect At 50 mM NaCl, adventitious root formation was completely inhibited in cut spearmint shoots.
- Mechanism Roots mitigated deleterious effects of osmotic and ionic stress.
- Intervention effect At 50 mM NaCl or above, ionic salt stress caused strong irreversible physiological alterations.
- Intervention effect Salt stress disorganized native chlorophyll-protein complexes.
- Intervention effect At 50 mM NaCl, thylakoid lumens swelled.
- Observation Granum structure was relatively retained in nearly dry leaves.
- Intervention effect In rooted spearmint, 150 mM NaCl disorganized chloroplast grana.
- Intervention effect Applied treatments did not affect spearmint essential oil composition.
