Abstract
Concentrations of sodium in plant tissues and soil, and the severity and incidence of early leaf spot (Cercospora arachidicola), were influenced by water quality (sodic or nonsodic water) and method of irrigation (sprinkle or trickle). Mean Na levels were always higher in tissues (leaf, stem, root, and seed) of plants receiving sprinkle-applied deep-well water containing in average Na concentration of 220 mg L -1 and a sodium absorption ratio (SAR) of 103, than in plots receiving sprinkle-applied shallow-well water containing an average Na concentration of 4.8 mg L -1 and an SAR of 3.1 (.)
