Percentage of increase in PS I (a) and PS II (b) activity of seedlings raised from haloprimed seeds of three different varieties of V. radiata as compared to that of seedlings raised from non primed seeds. PS I activity in seedlings raised from non primed seeds of Pusa Ratna in 0, NaCl, PEG stress is 116, 155, 101 μmol of O2 consumed/mg chl/min, respectively; for Pusa 9531 in 0, NaCl, PEG stress is 168, 165, 113 μmol of O2 consumed/mg chl/min, respectively and for Pusa Vishal in 0, NaCl, PEG stress is 127, 103, 105 μmol of O2 consumed/mg chl/min, respectively. PS II activity in seedlings raised from non primed seeds of Pusa Ratna in 0, NaCl, PEG stress is 41, 14, 24 μmol of O2 evolved/mg chl/min, respectively; for Pusa 9531 in 0, NaCl, PEG stress is 30, 28, 24 μmol of O2 evolved/mg chl/min, respectively and for Pusa Vishal in 0, NaCl, PEG stress is 38, 26, 22 μmol of O2 evolved/mg chl/min, respectively. The vertical bars represent SE of the mean value of recordings from three independent experiments each with a minimum of three replicates. Values super scribed with same alphabet is homogenous for each stress at 1 % level significance (p < 0.01; ANOVA)
