This book offers effective, low-cost
and user-friendly protocols for the pre-field selection of salt-tolerant mutants in cereal crops. It presents simple methods for measuring soil salinity, including
soil sampling and the analysis of water-soluble salts, and describes a
detailed, but simple, screening test for salt tolerance in rice, wheat and
barley seedlings, which uses hydroponics. The protocols are devised for use by
plant breeders and can be easily accommodated into breeding practice.
