“…K + , Na + , Ca 2+ , and Mg 2+ were extracted from dried plant tissues in 100 mM acetic acid (Sangon, Shanghai, China) at 90°C for 2 h ( Wang et al, 2019), and then the K + , Na + and Ca 2+ concentrations were determined using a flame spectrophotometer (Model 410 Flame; Sherwood Scientific, Ltd., Cambridge, UK) ( Wang et al, 2004), and the Mg 2+ concentration was determined using an atomic absorption spectrophotometer (AAS, AA‐670, Shimadzu, Kyoto, Japan) ( Wang et al, 2019). The Cl − , H 2 , , and in the oven‐dried tissues were extracted with deionized water at 100°C for 2 h, and then Cl − , H 2 , and were assessed by ion chromatography (ICS 2000, DIONEX, Sunnyvale, USA) ( Yang et al., 2008), and was detected by a colorimetric method using a UV spectrophotometer as described by Drechsler et al.…”
