Evaluating salinity tolerance in progeny of domestic and wild barley crosses at the seedling growth stage

Abstract Salinity is one of the most detrimental abiotic stresses affecting crop productivity worldwide. To identify barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) genotypes with satisfactory production under increased salinity, screening must focus on multiple phenological stages, specifically the earliest stages (ge...
