Abstract

---

Exploration of inter- and intra-specific variation for salt tolerance is a pre-requisite for the improvement of this trait through selection and breeding. In order to assess, inter- and intra-specific variation for salt tolerance in radish (Raphanus sativus L.) and turnip(Brassica rapa L.), local cultivars of these two species were screened at varying levels of salinity stress (0, 60
