Abstract
This study aimed to determine the effect of 2000 mg l^-1 NaCl on micronutrients concentration, chlorophyll contents and plant growth in nine different strawberry cultivars. NaCl application did not cause a significant change in root and shoot weights. The leaf weight was decreased by salt treatment in all cultivars. This decrease was statistically significant in six cultivars (Carmine, CG-4, CG-2, CG-5, CG-3, Kabarla) and was not significant in three cultivars (Redland Hope, Sweet Charlie, and Camarosa). Total chlorophyll content was increased by NaCl treatment in all cultivars. While this increase was not statistically significant in some cultivars (Redland Hope, Sweet Charlie, CG-3, and Kabarla), increase in chlorophyll content was significant in other cultivars (Carmine, CG-4, CG-2, CG-5, and Camarosa). The changes in Mn, Zn, Fe, and Cu concentrations under saline conditions depended upon cultivars and the organs of plant.
