| dc.description.abstract | Soil salinity is one of the most serious environmental factors affecting crop productivity
around the world. We used a morpho-physiological approach to investigate the salt responses
of four Tunisian natural populations of Medicago ciliaris. Forty-six lines of M. ciliaris were grown
under a control treatment and 100 mM NaCl. We measured 11 quantitative traits of shoot and root
growth during harvest. An analysis of variance showed that the variations in salt response can be
explained by the effects of the population, line, treatment, and interactions between the population
and treatment and the line and treatment. Most of the measured traits showed significant differences
between the studied populations under the control treatment and salt stress. | en_US |
