Abstract/Contents: | "The tolerance to sodium chloride of clones of Agrostis stolonifera from salt marsh, spray zone, and inland habitats was measured in water cultures by a rooting technique and by growth analysis. The order of tolerance was found to be: salt marsh > spray zone > inland. The two methods of measurement of tolerance were found to show good agreement. Salt marsh plants were found to be more resistant to low dissolved oxygen concentrations in the culture solution than plants from the spray zone and inland habitats. With polyethylene glycol 6000 in culture solution, the pattern of resistance to osmotic stress in the absence of sodium chloride was similar to the pattern of resistance to salt." |
