Figure 1.

Comparison of different growth attributes of Brassica species under NaCl stress. Five-week-old plants of Brassica juncea (black bars) and Brassica napus (grey bars) were exposed to either 0 or 300 mM NaCl. Different growth parameters, such as plant height (a), leaf area (b), shoot dry weight (c), and root dry weight (d), were determined after 15 days of the treatment. Data points represent the means ± SD of three biological replicates. Significant differences are shown with different asterisks (***, **, * at p = 0.001, 0.01, 0.05, respectively).
