摘要 Avicenna marina(Forssk.)Vierh is a halophytic mangrove.The reproductive unit is green and has photosynthetic propagules.Mangroves are naturally exposed to fluctuations in some abiotic factors at the soil surface,including salinity and alkalinity.The objective of this study was to determine the effects of two salts including NaCl and NaHCO_(3)on germination processes and discuss the relationships between cotyledon photosynthesis and embryo axis growth in A.marina propagules.These propagules came from Al Birk,located on the shoreline of the Saudi Red Sea.The results showed that the studied salts did not affect neither the final germination percentage nor the embryo axis growth.However,rooting and root growth were delayed by both salts at 300 mM and were strongly inhibited by 600 mM NaHCO_(3).Both NaCl and NaHCO_(3)reduced the photosynthetic activity.These two salts did not affect the other photosynthetic parameters,including stomatal conductance,net transpiration,and intercellular CO_(2).Thereafter,the reduction in net photosynthesis was not related to any limitation of stomatal conductance.The early germination phase was independent of cotyledon photosynthesis,whereas rooting and root growth may be limited by reduced photosynthesis under NaCl and NaHCO_(3).
