In order to determine the effect of the salinity treatments on photosynthetic processes, the photosynthesis parameters of the plants under control and salinity treatments were measured 9 days after start of treatment. Net photosynthetic rate (A), stomatal conductance (gs), transpiration (E), and internal CO2 concentration (ci) were measured, using the LCpro-SD instrument (ADC Bioscientific Ltd., United Kingdom). The chlorophyll fluorescence of dark-adapted leaves was measured, using FluoroPen FP100 (Photon System Instruments, Czech Republic), and the quantum yield of PSII (QY), and non-photochemical quenching (NPQ) were recorded.
