In the present study, we Investigated the effects of Increaslng sallnlty on growth, gas exchange, absclslc acld （ABA）, calmodulln （CAM）, and the relevance to salt tolerance In seedllngs of Populus euphratlca Ollv. and cutUngs of P. ＂pupularls 35-44＂ （P. popularls） and P. x euramerlcana cv. 1-214 （P. cv. Itallca）. The relatlve growth rates of shoot helght （RGR,） for P. cv. Itallca and P. popularls were severely reduced by Increaslng salt stress, whereas the growth reductlon was relatlvely less in P. euphratica. Slmllarly, P. euphratlca malntalned hlgher net photosynthetlc rates （Pn） and unlt transplration rotes （TRN） than P. cv. Itallca and P. popularls under condltlons of hlgher sallnlty. Sallnity caused a slgnlficant increase In leaf ABA and CaM In the three genotypes after the onset of stress, but NaCl-induced ABA and CaM accumulatlon was more pronounced In P. euphratlca, suggeeUng that P. euphratlca plants are more sensitlve in sensing soil salinlty than the other two poplars. Furthermore, P. euphratica maintained relatively higher ABA and CaM concentrations under conditions of high salinity. The higher capacity to synthesize stress signals, namely ABA and CaM, In P. euphratica and the contrlbuUon of this to the salt resistance of P. euphratica are discussed.
