“…All species increased in Na and Cl concentration in the leaves in response to NaCl treatment, agreeing with the results of Gates et al ( 5), Greenway (6), Tal (21), and Patel and Wallace (13). Greenway (6) and Tal (21) reported that salt tolerant species and cultivars contained less sodium and chloride than sensitive ones, and the salt tolerant types did not increase in Na and Cl concentration as much as salt sensitive types in response to NaCl application.…”

Lycopersicon and Solanum species and an F1 hybrid of L. esculentum × S. lycopersicoides differed in growth and concentration of elements in leaves in response to levels of NaCl in outdoor sand culture. S. lycopersicoides and its hybrid with the tomato were more sensitive to NaCl on the basis of reduction in dry matter accumulation than L. esculentum, L. peruvianum, or S. pennellii. The dry weights of S. lycopersicoides and the F1 grown without NaCl in the rooting medium were 6 times greater than the average of L. esculentum, L. peruvianum, and S. pennellii, but only 2 times greater when the plants were grown with 294 meq NaCl/liter of rooting medium nutrient solution. S. lycopersicoides and the F1 were fruitless. The average tops without fruit of all species had 10.9% dry weight when grown without NaCl while tops of plants grown with 294 meq NaCl/liter nutrient solution had 14.0% dry wight. NaCl in the rooting medium increased the concentration of Na less in the leaves of S. lycopersicoides and the F1 than the other species and increased the Cl concentration in the leaves of all species. S. lycopersicoides and the F1 had higher concentration of K, and lower Ca in the leaves than the other species. S. pennellii had higher concentrations of Fe and Mn in the leaves than other species.

“…Under high P concentration in nutrient solution, leaf injury has been interpreted as P toxicity induced by salinity (Cerda and Bingham, 1978). However, under low P concentration, increase in fruit yield and dry weight of tomato plants in salty conditions has been reported by Awad et al (1990) and Patel and Wallace (1976). Awad et al (1990) stated that salinity at high P concentrations in the nutrient solution results in P accumulation in leaves at toxic levels.…”

2 Tomato seedlings were transferred to continuously, aerated plastic containers. Treatments consisted of three nitrogen (N) levels [0, 1.5, and 3% as ammonium chloride (NH 4 Cl) and ammonium phosphate (NH 4 H 2 PO 4 ) 2:1 w/w] and three salinity levels (0, 30, and 60 mM using sodium chloride (NaCl) and calcium chloride (CaCl 2 )]. Results indicated significant positive and negative responses in fruits fresh weight to nitrogen and salinity treatments, respectively. Number of fruits and root length decreased at high salinity level. Phosphorus (P) content was highest in fruits and lowest in roots. Fruit P uptake decreased with salinity applications in N controls. At low salinity levels, N application mitigated the salinity detrimental effects; however, such an effect was not observed at the high salinity level. Nitrogen application significantly decreased iron, zinc, copper, and manganese concentration and uptake. Application of nitrogen and salinity levels significantly increased the citric acid content of tomato fruits. Vitamin C content of fruits was neither influenced by nitrogen nor by salinity.

Salinity and soil nutrient deficiencies are the main factors reducing plant productivity in arid and semiarid areas. Among the essential elements, nitrogen is usually the most growth limiting plant nutrient in saline or non-saline soils. A pot experiment was carried out in the greenhouse to evaluate the influence of composted manure and urea as nitrogen sources on growth and mineral [nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and sodium (Na)] content of maize (Zea mays L.) under different levels of salinity. Saline soils were prepared from an infertile loamy-sand soil, namely masatsuchi, by adding a mixture of Ca, Mg, and Na salt solutions with concentrations of 60, 110, and 160 mmol c L À 1 . The final salinity levels (ECe) achieved were 4, 9, and 13 dSm À 1 denoted as S1, S2, S3, respectively; S0 denotes untreated soil. The pH of the saline soils ranged from 7.1 to 7.4. Nitrogen was applied at four levels JOURNAL ORDER REPRINTS as follows: urea, composted manure, 1 2 urea þ 1 2 composted manure, and a control (no N fertilizer). Each of the three levels of applied N was at the rate of 200 kg ha À 1 . A basal dose of P and K was also applied. Treatments were factorially combined using RCB design with 3 replications. Maize was grown as the test crop. Plant growth and shoot and root biomass were monitored for 8 weeks, and shoot samples were also analyzed for N, P, K, Ca, Mg, and Na. Maize height and dry matter production were depressed with increasing salinity levels. The application of composted manure and urea fertilizer enhanced plant growth and nutrient uptake compared with the non-treated control. Maize growth was better under urea fertilizer than under composted manure. The uptake of nutrient was also affected by the salinity and form of fertilizer applied. Calcium, Mg, and Na uptake of shoot increased with increasing level of salinity irrespective of fertilizer level. However, for any level of salinity, the uptake of these elements differed in the following order: urea > urea þ manure > composted manure > control. Nitrogen uptake decreased with increasing salinity up to S2 while P and K decreased up to S3. Irrespective of salinity, N, P, and K uptake were higher in urea and urea þ manure treatments as compared to manure and control. The poor response of composted manure may be due to its short-term application or impeded N mineralization under saline conditions.
