Article Synopsis
  • Eleocharis vivipara Link is a unique plant that adapts differently when submerged or growing on land, showing distinct anatomical traits.
  • When exposed to salt stress (0.1 - 0.3 M NaCl), the submerged form experiences suppressed growth but eventually develops new culms with Kranz anatomy and more stomata.
  • The study concludes that salt stress prompts adaptations in the plant's anatomy and increases the expression of C photosynthetic enzymes, indicating a complex response to environmental changes.
