The effect of calcium on the antioxidant systems in the halophyte Cakile maritima under salt stress

The purpose of the current investigation was to study the effect of Ca2+ (0, 3.5 and 20 mM concentrations) on the antioxidant systems in the halophyte Cakile maritima under NaCl stress (0, 100, 200 and 400 mM NaCl). Plants treated with both moderate calcium (3.5 mM) and salt levels (100 mM) showed the maximum growth, and the addition of 20 mM calcium to the nutrient media did not significantly reduce the growth under the moderate salt treatment....
