This study was conducted to assess the effects of saline irrigation water on the behaviour of
7-year-old female trees of Mateur variety grafted onto Pistacia vera L. and Pistacia atlantica
Desf. rootstocks. The three irrigation treatments consisted of:(i) unstressed control trees
irrigated with fresh water (ECw: 1.95 dS/m);(ii) moderately saline water (ECw: 5 dS/m); and
(iii) saline water with (ECw: 12 dS/m). Individual trunk cross-sectional area and growth of
scion shoots were determined on all trees as well as proline and soluble sugar foliar …
