Effects of Salinity on the Growth and Nutrition of Taro (Colocasia esculenta): Implications for Food Security
GR Lloyd, A Uesugi, RM Gleadow - Plants, 2021 - mdpi.com
Taro (Colocasia esculenta (L.) Schott) is a staple food crop in the Asia-Pacific region in
areas where rising sea levels are threatening agricultural production. However, little is
known about its response to salinity. In this study, we investigated the effects of salinity on
the growth, morphology, physiology, and chemical traits of taro to predict the impacts of
rising sea levels on taro production and nutritional value in the Pacific. We grew taro
(approximately 4 months old) with a range of NaCl treatments (0–200 mM) for 12 weeks. Full …
