Abstract
Five Arriplex species were evaluated under the different salt concentrations. Sea water of specific electrical conductivity was used as a source of salinity at three different concentrations: I2, 24 and 36 dSm-1 Distilled water containing one-tenth volume modified hougland solution served as a control. An increase in salt concentration resulted in a significant reduction in germination. However, increases in mineral composition in the plants were observed without a reduction in yield under high salt treatments. This was an indication of salinity tolerance in Arriplex spp.
