The Effects of Different NaCl Concentrations on the Germination of Cotton

Abstract

In this study, 4 different cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) varieties (Carisma, Flash, PG2018 and Lydia) and a total of 7 doses including 6 NaCl concentrations and a control (0, 25 mM, 50 mM, 75 mM, 100 mM, 125 mM, 150 mM) group were used. Effects of different NaCl concentrations on germination of cotton varieties was examined. The study was arranged in a randomized complete plot in a factorial experiment design with 4 replications. As a result, it was obtained that the average germination rates between varieties were 44.29% (PG2018 and Flash), 35% (Carisma) and 28.57% (Lydia), respectively. In addition, 100 mM NaCl concentration decreased germination rate up to 30%, subsequent doses stopped germination almost completely for whole varieties. It was determined that PG2018 and Flash varieties were more resistant to increasing salt concentrations and different varieties showed significant variability of the response to the concentrations of salt.
