e0“Seeds of soybean varieties viz Shohag and BARI Soybean-5 were grown in Petri dishes and treated with 0, 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, and 300 mM NaCl for 14 days”
e2“germination percentage and germination index of Shohag were more than 80% at up to 200 mM NaCl concentration, while both of these variables for BARI Soybean-5 were more than 80% at up to 100 mM NaCl treatments”

Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Salinity reduces germination percentage, germination index, germination speed and growth parameters of soybean seedlings.
- Observation BARI Soybean-5 keeps germination percentage and germination index above 80% up to 100 mM NaCl.
- Association BARI Soybean-5 germinates faster than Shohag at moderate salinities.
- Association BARI Soybean-5 germinates more slowly than Shohag at high salinities.
- Intervention effect Growth of both soybean varieties slowed significantly with increased salinity.
- Association Shohag outperforms BARI Soybean-5 in growth at high salt concentration.
- Observation BARI Soybean-5 can tolerate moderate salt, according to the authors.
- Recommendation Shohag could be used in field experiments because of its superior germination performance.
