Irrigation with saline water is one of the major problems in citrus crop in and and semi-arid regions. Because rootstock and fertilization play an important role in citrus salt tolerance, we investigated the influence of the nitrogen fertilization and rootstock on salt tolerance of 2-year-old potted Fino 49 lemon trees. For that, trees grafted on Citrus macrophylla (M) or Sour orange (SO) rootstocks were watered for 12 weeks with complete nutrient solution containing either 0 mM NaCl (control, Q 50 mM NaCl (S), 50 mM NaCl with an additional 10 mM potassium nitrate (S + N), or 50 mM NaCl with a 1% KNO3 (S + Nf) foliar spray application. Trees on M were more vigorous than trees on SO and saline treatments reduced leaf growth similarly in trees on both rootstocks. Trees on SO had a lower leaf Cl- and Na+ concentration than those on M. Additional soil nitrogen (S + N) decreased leaf Cl- concentration and increased leaf K+ concentration in salinized trees on both rootstocks. However, the salinity-induced reduction leaf growth was similar in S + N and S trees. This was due to osmotic effect, beside leaf Cl- and Na+ toxicity, played an important role in the growth response of Fino 49 lemon to the salt stress. Additional foliar nitrogen in the S + Nf treatment also reduced leaf Cl- concentration relative to the S treatment but trees from S + Nf treatment had the lowest leaf growth. Net assimilation of CO2 (A(CO2)), stomatal conductance (g(s)) and plant transpiration were reduced similarly in all three salt treatments, regardless rootstock. Salinity reduced leaf water and osmotic potential such that leaf turgor was increased. Thus, the salinity-induced A(CO2) reductions were not due to loss of turgor but rather due to high salt ion accumulation in leaves. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
