Is chloride toxic to seed germination in mixed-salt environments? A case study with the coastal halophyte Suaeda maritima in the presence of seawater
Most salt tolerant plants, halophytes, use seed germination for natural regeneration. However, germination in mixed-salt environments such as seawater is poorly understood and ion toxicity by Cl−, the most highly concentrated ion in seawater, is rarely considered over Na+. Here, we investigate Cl− t...
