Abstract

During the germination, wheat and sorghum plants tolerated salinity up to 10 mM NaCl. Seedling growth and dry matter production remained more or less unchanged up to 10 mM NaCl in case of wheat and up to 5 mM NaCl in case of sorghum. The water content of test plant species exhibited nearly constant values irrespective of the salinity level applied. The proline and carbohydrate content increased with elevating NaCl, while free amino acids content decreased. Irrigating of seedlings with tryptophan had non significant effect at all salinity levels used.
