A number of studies have pointed out how potassium can alleviate the effects of sodium toxicity on plants. However, the mechanisms of interaction between these two ions at the whole plant level are poorly understood so far. This study assessed some physiological mechanisms involved with the K-Na interaction in Jatropha curcas seedlings exposed to salinity. The experiment was carried out in a completely randomized, 2 × 2 factorial design (two Na and K levels in nutrient solution, with five replications). […]
