e0“A glass house experiment was conducted to investigate the potential of different wheat genotypes for physiological traits”
e1“Ten wheat genotypes along with salt tolerant check (LU-26s) were evaluated under two salinity levels (control and 120 mM NaCl)”
e5“with significant increase in endogenous level of proline, glycine betaine (GB), total phenols (TP), total soluble sugars (TSS) and maintained high potassium (K + ) content by restricting sodium (Na + ) uptake in response to salt stress”

- Intervention effect Salt stress significantly affected growth and yield attributes and physiological traits of wheat genotypes.
- Association Genotypes LU-26s, CT-09117, NRL-1237, NRL-1235, Tatara and NIA-AS-14-2 had better plant height, productive tiller and plant biomass under salinity.
- Association Genotypes LU-26s, CT-09117, NRL-1237, NRL-1235, Tatara and NIA-AS-14-2 had better grain yield per plant under salinity.
- Association Genotypes LU-26s, CT-09117, NRL-1237, NRL-1235, Tatara and NIA-AS-14-2 showed least degradation in chlorophyll contents under salinity.
- Intervention effect Salt stress increased endogenous proline, glycine betaine and total phenols in wheat genotypes.
- Association Salt-stressed wheat genotypes maintained high potassium content by restricting sodium uptake.
- Association Genotypes NIA-AS-9 and 4 performed moderately under salinity.
- Association Genotypes NIA-AS-14-8 and CT-09149 had poor growth and yield under saline stress.
- Association Wheat grain yield was positively correlated with K+, proline and total soluble sugars.
- Association Wheat grain yield showed a negative relationship with Na+ contents under salinity.
- Observation Wheat genotypes CT-09117, NRL-1237, NRL-1235, NIA-AS-14-2 and Tatara could be categorized as salt tolerant (author conclusion).
