Plant height, shoot fresh weight, shoot dry weight, root dry weight, and leaf relative water content (LRWC) of four soybean cultivars grown under drought and salinity stress conditions. Data presented are means ± SD. Different letters denote a significant difference at p < 0.05 based on the least significant difference (LSD) test.
