This study aimed to screen salt-tolerant soybean varieties to improve the utilization efficiency of saline-alkali land. [Methods]Under three concentrations of salt stress( 5,10 and 15 g/L),salt tolerance of nine Shandong soybean cultivars was identified at the germination stage. The number of germinated seeds,relative germination rate,plant height,radicle length and number of fibrous roots were recorded to analyze the relative salt damage index and evaluate the salt tolerance of different soybean cultivars. [Results]With the increase of salt concentration,the number of germinated seeds,plant height and number of fibrous roots showed a decreasing trend with significant differences among different soybean cultivars. Under three concentrations of salt stress,Shengdou 10,Lindou 10 and Hedou 28 exhibit relatively strong salt tolerance,indicating that these cultivars are relatively salt-tolerant and highly salt-tolerant cultivars; Hedou 12,Gaofeng 1,Weidou 9 and Qihuang 34 are moderately salt-tolerant cultivars; Qihuang 30 and Qihuang 31 are relatively sensitive to salt solution under 15 g/L NaC l stress. [Conclusions] This study provided high-quality germplasm materials for the improvement of salt tolerance of soybean varieties.展开更多
