Effects of drought and salinity on photosynthesis
Photosynthesis by Lycium nodosum is shown by Tezara et al. (pp. 757-765) to be co-limited by stomatal and non-stomatal factors under conditions of water deficit and salinity and in the absence of chronic photoinhibition. These features, together with a marked capacity for osmotic adjustment, help to explain the salt tolerance of L. nodosum in coastal habitats.
