Abstract
The effect of increasing NaCl concentrations (up to 150 m M ) on growth and mineral composition of three genotypes of sugar beet ( Beta vulgaris L., MONOHILL, ADA and FIA) has been studied. Growth was stimulated or little affected in water culture by 50 m M NaCl in all 3 genotypes. Further increase in NaCl concentration depressed growth in ADA more than in MONOHILL, whereas in FIA growth did not significantly differ from the untreated control. In all 3 genotypes, particularly in FIA, increasing NaCl concentrations decreased potassium content in the shoots more than in the fibrous and storage roots. Simultaneously, the accumulation of sodium and chloride in the shoots was considerably higher in FIA than in ADA, where in contrast larger proportions of these ions were retained in the roots. The results demonstrate considerable genotypic differences in salt tolerance of sugar beet and indicate a positive correlation between salt tolerance and accumulation of sodium and chloride in the shoots. FIA but not ADA may be suited for a breeding programme of sugar beet for improved salt tolerance.
