Evaluation and screening of climate-resilient crops for their relative tolerance to salinity and abiotic stresses in hydroponic system
Objective:
- Evaluate physiological parameters of different genotypes at varying salinity levels
- Compare salinity tolerance of studied genotypes at germination and early seedling stages at increasing salinity levels (hydroponic conditions)
- Estimate the range for the tolerance threshold to salinity within studied crops
Project/Experiment Details:
Experimental Design: Systematic planting in a hydroponic system
Treatments/Variables:
Setup I: 7 salinity levels (Control, A, B, C, D, E, F)
Setup II: 5 salinity levels (Control, A, B, C, D)
(Salinity levels can be customized)
