Abstract
This study was aimed to find out the effects of different concentrations of NaCl and KCl salts on growth and some biochemical parameters of wheat crop. In the biological growth parameters, % germination, leaves per plant and total plant height were observed. Effects of various levels of NaCl and KCl on total chlorophyll content and protein were studied. The results showed that the biological growth parameters in wheat decreased with increasing salt concentration in comparison to control. It is also observed that the biological parameters showed more adverse effect of NaCl than that of KCl. During the biochemical investigations, total chlorophyll contents in wheat showed no considerable change. But total proteins showed increase in content as with increase in concentration of NaCl and KCl. This study may be carefully considered if wheat is grown under NaCl or KCl saline soil conditions.
