Figure 4. The effect of salinity on tillering of Spartina
alterniflora grown under greenhouse condition. (a) percentage of
tillering; (b) number of tiller per seedling; (c) plant height. The
solid square represents seedlings treated with 0‰ salinity, the open
circle represents seedlings treated with 15‰ salinity, the solid
triangle represents seedlings treated with 30‰ salinity.
Table 1. The content of strigolactones and its derivatives under
different salinity treatments in Spartina alterniflora roots. ND
means 5-DS or strigol
was
not detected.
