After cleaning the leaves with 10 mM calcium chloride solution25 followed by deionized water, FW of the leaves was measured immediately and DW was obtained following incubation at 105 °C for 15 min and drying to constant weight at 70 °C for 2 days23. Five replicates were performed per variety and treatment. The reduction rate was calculated as (FW under control condition—FW under saline condition)/FW under control condition × 100%. The same method was processed in calculating the reduction rate of DW. The relative water content is calculated as (FW-DW)/FW × 100%26.
