Physiological Responses of Wild and Cultivated Barley to the Interactive Effect of Salinity and Iron Deficiency

Table 5

Salinity effect (0, 100, 200, and 300 mM NaCl) on Fe absorption efficiency (FeAE) in H. maritimum and H. vulgare grown on nutrient solution containing 100 μM Fe. Means of three replicates. For each line, means followed by the same letters are not significantly different at 5% according to Duncan’s test.

	FeAE (μmol Fe/g root DW)
NaCl (mM)	0	100	200	300
H. maritimum	26^d	14.5^c	12.8^b	9.08^a
H. vulgare	17.7^d	11.79^c	10.2^b	4.88^a
