Results revealed an increase in shoot Na concentration in salt sensitive and
salt tolerant cultivars at 80 mM NaCl as compared to the control treatment.
Additional supply of K under saline conditions decreased the concentration
of Na in shoots by 39% and 61% in salt sensitive cultivar while 19% and 33%
in salt tolerant cultivar at 2.5 mM and 5 mM K, respectively as compared
to the salt stressed plants without K nutrition
