control – culture without addition of osmoprotectants; standard – Hoagland medium without NaCl; salt stress – Hoagland medium with NaCl (1% m/V); vertical lines indicate SE; Different lowercase letters ‘a–b’ indicate a significant difference for plants growing under salt stress conditions; different uppercase letters ‘A–B’ indicate a significant difference for plants growing on standard medium; both at p < 0.05, n = 10, Tukey HSD test, ANOVA.
