Salinity treatments showed a decrease in maximal efficiency of PSII photochemistry (Fv/Fm) in dark-adapted leaves. Moreover, the actual PSII efficiency (Φ ), photochemical quenching coefficient (q ), proportion of PSII centers effectively re- PSII p oxidized, and the fraction of light used in PSII photochemistry (%P) were also dropped with increasing salinity in light- adapted leaves. Reductions in these parameters were greater in Aristo than in Arper. The tissue hydration decreased in salt-treated leaves as did the photosynthesis, stomatal conductance (gs) and photosynthetic pigments concent
