Effect of salt stress in cucumber. a, b The symptoms of salt injury in cucumber exposed to 3 days salt stress. Effect of salt on (c) plant total dry weight, d water content, e H2O2 content, f, g plant hydraulic conductance and (h) leaf water potential of cucumber seedlings. These parameters were determined after 3 d of salt treatment. Data are means ± SD (n = 8 for plant total dry weight, total water content, 5 for H2O2 content, plant hydraulic conductance, and leaf water potential). Different letters in a column indicate significant differences between the treatments at p < 0.05 level
