Abstract:
【Objective】 Identification and evaluation of salt tolerance in wheat relatives at germination and seedling stages.
【Methods】 In this study, 38 wild relatives of wheat (including controls) were treated at bud and seedling stages.Wheat related species were used as experimental materials and the suitable NaCl concentrations of both 1.2% and 1.5% for salt tolerance identification and evaluation at bud and seedling stage was selected.
【Results】 21materials with high salt tolerance at bud stage were obtained(55.2%), accounting for 8 salt-resistant materials(21%) and 3 medium salt-tolerant materials(7.8%);4 for sensitive materials(10.5%),2 for high sensitive(5.2%).7 materials with salt tolerance at seedling stage were obtained(18.4%), 17.medium salt-tolerant materials(44.7%),12 for sensitive materials(31.5%), 2 for high sensitive(5.2%); 2 materials with 100% at the survival rate and seedling rate.At the same time, we also found the same salt-tolerant materials at the bud and seedling stage, including 7 salt-tolerant materials and 4 sensitive materials, and found the survival rate and seedling rate of 100% at both stages for 2 materials.
【Conclusion】 The analysis showed that the salt resistance of different salt tolerant types is not consistent in bud stage and seedling stage, and some materials are not comparable and have great differences.But they all have their own significance in the salt-tolerant germplasm screening.
