ANATOMICAL ADAPTATIONS OF CYNODON DACTYLON (L.) PERS., FROM THE SALT RANGE PAKISTAN, TO SALINITY STRESS. I. ROOT AND STEM ANATOMY
Abstract
A naturally adapted salt tolerant population of Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers., from highly saline soils of Uchhali Lake, the Salt Range, Pakistan was evaluated for root and stem anatomical modifications. A population from the normal (non-saline) soils of the Faisalabad region was also collected for comparison. Both populations were subjected to salt stress hydroponically. The salt treatments used were: control (0 mM salt), 50
