Abstract

This research was carried out to investigate the plant growth, inorganic ion and amino acid content characteristics in a halophyte, Suaeda glauca, under different NaCl concentrations for cultivating in the reclaimed land. S. glauca was hydroponically cultivated under 0, 50, 100, 200, 300 and 400 mM NaCl concentrations with Hogland’s nutrient solution. To evaluate growth response under different NaCl concentrations, plant height and number of branches, dry weight, Fv/Fm value, and photosynthetic efficiency were investigated. To find out physiological characteristic, inorganic ion contents and amino acids in the plant were evaluated. The optimum concentration of NaCl for plant growth were 50 mM. The plant growth were gradually decreased in the concentration ranged from 100 to 400 mM. As increasing of NaCl concentration, Na ion was increased, but K, Ca, Mg ions were decreased in the plant. The amino acid contents were varied due to NaCl concentrations, but most of amino acids content in total plant was the lowest at 50 mM. Conversely, proline was exceptionally high at 50 mM of NaCl concentration. The Fv/Fm value was the highest at 50 mM of NaCl concentration. From these results, the optimum salt concentration for the growth of S. glauca was 50 mM, but the plant seems to adapt in a variety of salt environments in view of the change of ions and amino acids depending on salt concentration and the maintenance of photosynthetic efficiency even under high salt condition.
