Abstract
Achenes of seven different genotypes of Helianthus annuus L. were tested for germination at four concentrations of sodium chloride solutions and their germination behaviour was compared. Seedling growth exhibited similar sensitivity as germination, under high salt levels. The varieties Morden and CO-4 were found to be more sensitive than others. Newly germinated seedlings exhibited a decrease in size with increase in salt levels.
Keywords: Germination, Helianthus annuus L., salt tolerance
