Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Increasing both stresses raised ion leakage in tall fescue.
- Intervention effect Increasing both stresses raised soluble sugar and proline concentrations.
- Intervention effect Increasing both stresses reduced visual quality, shoot length and leaf area.
- Intervention effect Increasing both stresses reduced fresh and dry shoot weights.
- Intervention effect Increasing both stresses reduced starch content.
- Intervention effect Moderate drought or salinity increased SOD and catalase activities.
- Intervention effect Antioxidant enzyme activity decreased at higher salinity stress levels.
- Recommendation The authors conclude tall fescue can grow under moderate combined water shortage and salinity without considerable physiological or biochemical damage.
