Study of Salinity Tolerance in Hulless Barley and UAE Wheat Landraces

Objectives: 

• Evaluation of relative performance of 102 genotypes of hulless barley along with 8 hulled accessions under salinity stress
• Evaluation of relative performance of 13 wheat landraces from UAE and 2 cultivars planted  under salinity stress
