Effect of ascorbic acid (AsA) on shoot fresh weight, shoot dry weight, root fresh weight, root dry weight, shoot length and root length of pea under salt stress. The three replicates ± SE is shown by the error bars above the means. For a parameter, means that share same letters do not differ significantly at p < 0.05. (V1 = Meteor; V2 = Sarsabz; T0 = Control + 0 mM AsA, T1 = Control + 5 mM AsA, T2 = Control + 10 mM AsA, T3 = 100 mM NaCl + 0 mM AsA, T4 = 100 mM NaCl + 5 mM AsA and T5 = 100 mM NaCl + 10 mM AsA)
