Description:

Various physiological characteristics of Cj and C4 plants (14 species) grown along a salinity gradient were studied. The majority of plants occupying salt-marshes were succulent chenopods, mainly C4 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 CT characterized the NAD-ME plants and perennial C3 plants from sites with high soil salinity, Net photosynthetic rate (P^) and chlorophyll content were decreased in species grown under high salinity. Dark respiration was depressed by salinity to a lesser extent than P^.
