“…In contrast, Colla et al (2012) observed an inability to restrict Cl -ion uptake by cucumber rootstocks, which then became the most significant toxic ion in saline solutions. It has been reported that pepper can accumulate more Cl -than Na + ions (Chartzoulakis and Klapaki, 2000), perhaps because of the different ability of pepper to compartmentalise these ions in the cell vacuole (Navarro et al, 2003), an observation that was confirmed in our study. Chloride ion concentrations were higher than Na + ions in the leaves.…”

“…Contradictory results have been found in pepper. Günes et al (1996) and Navarro et al (2003) concluded that the yield reduction induced by salinity may be associated with the toxic effects of the accumulation of Cl -ions in plant tissues, whereas Chartzoulakis and Klapaki (2000) suggested that pepper plants had the ability to limit Cland Na + ion concentrations in their shoots. These differences could be explained by the ability of specific genotypes to exclude ions, as confirmed by our results.…”

“…Aktas et al (2006) observed that salt tolerance can vary between pepper genotypes and was related to leaf Na + concentrations. The response of pepper plants to salinity is both ionic and osmotic, and depends on the level of salinity (Chartzoulakis and Klapaki, 2000;Martínez-Ballesta et al, 2004). The consequence of moderate salinity is mainly osmotic stress, whereas high salt concentrations also induce toxicity by both Na + and Clions (Silva et al, 2008).…”

“…However a higher rate of PP 333 (30 mg/L), resulted in reduced shoot dry wt. In general, increased salinity tended to reduce root dry weight, and a similar result was shown in two pepper cultivars (Chartzoulakis, 2000). However, application of PP 333 tended to overcome the negative effect of salinity on root dry wt (Table 1).…”

Strawberry plants (Fragaria × ananassa Duch) are very susceptible to salinity. To investigate the interactive effects of paclobutrazol (PP 333) and salinity on gas exchange and growth factors of the plant, 3 levels of NaCl [0, 5, 10 mM] were incorporated into the nutrient solution, and 4 levels of PP 333 [0, 10, 20, 30 mg/L] were applied by means of foliar sprays. Increased levels of salinity and PP 333 resulted in reduced leaf area. The highest level of PP 333 resulted in reduced shoot dry weight. Foliar application of 20 mg/L of PP 333 mitigated detrimental effects of salinity on root dry weight and total plant dry weight. PP 333 also mitigated negative effects of increased salinity on photosynthetic rate (A), water use efficiency, relative water content and chlorophyll content. Increased salinity and PP 333 caused reductions in stomatal conductance (gs), transpiration rate (E), number of runners and petiole length. Specific leaf weight was increased by both salinity and PP 333 .

“…This problem is usually counteracting the expansion in land reclamation. Salinity is a well known factor affecting negatively growth and production of many crops such as tomato (Hayward and Long, 1943;Sanchez Conde and Azuara,1979;Li, 2000;Tantawy, 2007) and sweet pepper (Pitacco et al, 1990;Zabri et al, 1997;Chartzoulakis and Klapaki, 1998;Abdel-Mawgoud 2002) and their productivity, for tomato (Ehret and Ho, 1986;Ho and Adams, 1989;Li, 2000;Tantawy, 2007) and sweet pepper (Sonneveld, 1979;Abdel-Mawgoud, 2002). The main negative effect of salinity comes from the osmotic effect on plant water uptake which eventually affects growth and yield (Livett, 1980;Abdel-Mawgoud, 2002).…”

This study aimed to investigate some possible approaches to alleviate the negative effects of salinity on tomato plant growth and productivity. Seeds of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill) hybrid VT737 were sown and seedling were exposed to hardening treatments using four levels of saline irrigation (control 250 ppm, low 1500 ppm, medium 3000 ppm and high 4500 ppm) during nursery stage. After transplanting in the open field, all plants were irrigated with saline water with 5500+ 500 ppm and the standard recommended fertilization dose. Plants were also receiving four experimental fertilization treatments namely control (no additional fertilization), mono potassium phosphate, potassium humate and amino acids.Recorded data showed that all vegetative and reproductive parameters responded positively to the individual effect of hardening and fertilization treatments and their interactions. The hardening level of 3000 ppm showed the best effect followed by the 4500 level and the least for 1500pp. Meanwhile the fertilization of mon potassium phosphate gave the best results followed by potassium humate then the amino acids. The interactive effect of the treatments appeared to be cumulative on plant response.
