Assessment of NaCl Tolerance in Green Gram Cultivars by Observing Morphological Characteristics
B. Sreelakshmi, B. Sujatha
Abstract: Soils having high salt content were not useful for cultivation; salinity severely effects the growth and productivity of the crop plants. This problem was covered by cultivating salt tolerant cultivars. The aim of the study is to figure out Nacl tolerant and NaCl sensitive cultivars of Green gram cultivars. In the present study total 7 cultivars of green gram seeds were grown at different NaCl concentrations. Germination percentage, root length, shoot length and dry weight of the seedlings were assessed using different concentrations of NaCl. Based on the growth parameters, T-44 was confirmed as salt tolerant cultivar and PS-07 was confirmed as salt susceptible cultivar.
Keywords: NaCl tolerance, Green gram, Susceptible and Growth parameters
