1996
Bradbury, M. (Sultan Qaboos Univ., Muscat (Oman). Dept. of Biology) | Ahmad, R.
Lettuce (Lactuca sativa var. Great Lakes) grown in soil irrigated with water of different salinities maintained with 0- 72mM NaCl showed greater leaf area, shoot/root ratio and dry weight when kept at 92/100% night and day R.H. as compared to 62/82% R.H. No significant difference in the rate of assimilation or stomatal conductance was found in plants grown at high and low R.H.
