| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses saline irrigation, stating that "researchers at Clemson University [South Carolina] performed a study to determine how various cultivars and seed lots of those cultivars vary in senstivity to salt." Reports that "all cultivar/seed lots had germination percentages that met or exceeded their tagged germination, and all were 96 percent or better in purity. Each sample was treated with saline solutions...Salinity did reduce the germination rate of all cultivars/seed lots; however, some seed lots were more tolerant of salinity than others." States that "for most cultivar/seed lots, even at the highest rate of salinity, germination was delayed by only 50 percent." |
