Abstract |
Various physiological characteristics of C-3 and C-4 plants (14 species) grown along a salinity gradient were studied. The majority of plants occupying salt-marshes were succulent chenopods, mainly C-4 annuals. The ash content of assimilating organs of plants was higher and osmotic potential lower in species grown under increasing soil salinity. The plants of the NADP-ME group accumulated more K than Na. Large amounts of Na+ and Cl- characterized the NAD-ME plants and perennial C-3 plants from sites with high soil salinity. Net photosynthetic rate (P-N) and chlorophyll content were decreased in species grown under high salinity. Dark respiration was depressed by salinity to a lesser extent than P-N. |
