Abstract
To evaluate the responses of oat genotypes to rising salinity, we studied plant growth, plant water status, membrane injury, chlorophyllcontent and photosynthetic rate at 50 and 100 mM of salt stress. Genotypes were grown in pots under screen house conditions and measuredphysiological parameters at 50% flowering. Most of the parameters declined with the increment of salt stress. Reduction in fresh weight (g),relative water content (%) was noticed from control to 100 mM of salt stress and the values ranged from 36.78 to 9.30g, 84.20 to 40.53,respectively. Similarly, total chlorophyll content (mg g-1 FW), chlorophyll content (SPAD units), chlorophyll stability index (CSI %) andphotosynthetic rate (
