Abstract
Growth of Bromus mollis L. from a saline grassland in the Camargue was studied at different levels of salinity and calcium concentration. Growth was depressed by salinities above zero; it was stimulated by small amounts of calcium carbonate, but depressed again by larger quantities. The sodium content of the plants was reduced by raising the soil calcium levels, but this had no beneficial effect on growth. These plants behave more as glycophytes than halophytes, despite their occurrence in relatively saline areas.
