Abstract

Salinity is one of potential threats in growing crops successfully. Identification of salt tolerant cultivars and its management may be an option in managing saline soils. The author has developed a novel technique by screening pipe line hybrids/parents at 0.15, 0.20 and 0.25 M NaCl concentration for evaluating and selecting salt tolerant cultivars with high yield potentials. Salt tolerant cultivars tested in laboratory condition have also proved their performance in field.
