Effects of Exogenous Glycinebetaine on Growth and Ultrastructure of Salt-Stressed Rice Seedlings (Oryza sativa L.)

The effects of exogenously applied glycinebetaine on the salt-stress-induced inhibition of growth and ultrastructural damages in rice seedlings were investigated. Glycinebetaine was not effective in alleviating the NaCl-induced inhibition of root growth and rather enhanced the NaCl-induced inhibitio...
