Question

Given below are two statements:
Statement (I): Rootstock 110 R restricted uptake of sodium and chloride.
Statement (II): While Dog ridge and Salt creek were know to restrict the uptake of chloride only.
In light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.

• A. Both Statement (I) and Statement (II) are true.
• B. Both Statement (I) and Statement (II) are false.
• C. Statement (I) is true but Statement (II) is false.
• D. Statement (I) is false but Statement (II) is true.

Hint:

Under high salinity, rootstocks of Vitis champinii (Dog Ridge and Ramsey) are highly efficient chloride excluders, but they can accumulate sodium in the leaves.
