The research was established with 4 replications according to the factorial experiment design in the
research areas of the Agricultural Research and Application Center of Igdir University in 2015 year. The study was
set up to determine the effects of plant height, plant fresh weight, plant dry rate, plant dry weight, salt tolerance
percentage, leaf ratio, stem ratio and bunch rate of sorghum of 7 different irrigation water salinity (0, 3, 6, 9, 12,
15, 18 dS m-1) on 3 sorghum (Rox, Early Sumac, Leoti) 2 sorghum-sudangrass hybrids (Nutri Honey, Hayday)
and 1 Sudangrass (Gözde-80) grown in pots in greenhouses. As the irrigation water salinity increased, the plant
height, plant fresh weight, plant dry weight, salt tolerance percentage and bunch rate decreased, plant dry ratio, leaf
ratio and stem ratio increased. The most resistant varieties of sorghum to the highest saline application were Early
Sumac, Rox and Nutri Honey, respectively and the most sensitive varieties were Leoti, Gözde-80 and Hayday,
respectively.
