Morpho-physiological characteristics, selected macronutrient uptake, and oxidative stress level of andrographis paniculata under saline condition

Andrographis paniculata (Hempedu Bumi) is an important therapeutical herb that tends to be affected by salinity stress, leading to reduction of plant productivity and growth. This study aimed to study the effects of salt stress on the morpho-physiology, selected macronutrients uptake, as well as int...
