Salinity reduced the leaf K+ concentration by 65% in the SC
plants, but the haloconditioned population showed a significant
43% more K+ in the leaves than the non-adapted plants (Table 2,
Fig. 2c). The most effective treatments on this parameter were
the same that on reducing the toxic ions, and so the K+/Na+ ratio
increases in most pre-adapted plants and especially in the those
from the treatments B1, F1, C3 and A3 (two to four times). The
most productive C3 and C8 plants showed 2- and 1.6-fold more
