Abstract
Abstract The effect of soil salinity on yield and market quality parameters of celery [ Apium graveolens L. var. dulce (Mill.) Pers.] was determined in field plots. Saline treatments were imposed by irrigating with water that contained NaCl and CaCl 2 in equal concentrations. Celery was found to be moderately sensitive to salinity. Relative yield was reduced 6.2% for each unit increase in soil salinity beyond 1.8 dS/m (dS/m = mmho/cm, referenced at 25°C). Petiole length, width, and thickness were also significantly reduced with increasing salinity. Salinity had no effect on pith development.
