- Association Line contribution was greater than tester contribution in the line x tester analysis.
- Observation Most traits were controlled by non-additive genes, except for Na+.
- Mechanism The traits were controlled by a few largely dominant genes under salt stress.
- Observation KEHKSHAN, FH‐118 and FH‐114 were good general combiners.
- Observation The cross KEHKSHAN × FH‐114 was a good specific combiner.
- Observation The KEHKSHAN x FH‐114 cross showed significantly better-parent heterosis for most traits over two years under salt stress.
- Recommendation The lines can be used in a breeding programme for salt tolerance.
