FIGURE 2.

Flower number (A) and seed weights (B) of Suaeda salsa grown with NaCl were markedly enhanced compared with those of S. salsa grown without NaCl. Data shown in panel A are from our laboratory, bar = 1 mm. Seed photos in (B) originated (Guo et al., 2018), bar = 250 μm. Treatments were applied to the sand in which the seeds were sown and then continued until seed maturity. The seeds were watered twice a day with either a no-NaCl solution (Hoagland nutrient solution, as control) or 200 mM of NaCl dissolved in Hoagland nutrient solution.
