Impact of NaCl, MgCl2 and CaCl2 on seed germination and seedling growth on turnip (Brassica rapa rapa)

This study was conducted to compare the impact of NaCl, MgCl2 and CaCl2 on the germination of B. rapa rapa seed and seedling growth. Three varieties of salts (NaCl, MgCl2, and CaCl2) at different concentration (25, 50, 75 and 100 mM) and deionized water as control were used. A fifteen sterilized see...
