[ 1 ] - Pysiological effects of NaCl on Ceratophyllum demersum L., a submerged rootless aquatic macrophyte

In the present study, effects of NaCl concentrations (0, 20, 40 and 80 mM) were investigated on Ceratophyllum demersum. Macronutrients N, P and K and micronutrients Zn and Cu were significantly decreased by NaCl salinity. In general, however, Fe and Mn contents of macrophyte tissues increased. As a result, NaCl toxicity disturbed the uptake and translocation of macro and micronutrients in the m...
