Abstract
Seeds of 4 tomato cultivars were evaluated for germination under 0(control),20,40,60,80 mmol/L NaCl stress Germination time increased and germination percentage decrease in response to NaCl stress in all cultivars,however,variation among cultivars was observed.'Tedazaofeng' was mose resistant to NaCl stress.At 80 mmol/L germination percentage was 26%.'L402' and Baoguan-1 'were most susceptible to NaCl stress.At 80 mmol/L no seed germinated.
