Table 1: Data showing the FW (fresh weight), DW (dry weight), TW (turgor weight), RWC% (relative water content), DM (dry mass) and DMSI (dry mass stress index) in 5 different alfalfa cultivars (A26, A29, A60, A88, A215) grown under 5 different NaCl dilutions. Values are the mean ± SE of five independent determinations.
