INFLUENCE OF SALINITY STRESS ON PHOTOSYNTHESIS AND ANTIOXIDATIVE SYSTEMS IN TWO COTTON VARIETIES

Abstract

Summary. The effect of the progressive increase in salinity on photosynthesis, antioxidant enzymes and the contents of proline and glycine betaine in two cotton varieties, Arya-Anubam and LRA-5166 was investigated. Plants were treated with four different salt concentrations (mixed salts: NaCl, MgSO
