Effect of Salinity on Growth of Callus Culture in Dalbergia Sissoo

Anita Chamoli

The experimental setup to examine the response of plant against salinity should be controlled and consistent as the fluctuating environment conditions confound the exact plant response to saline stress. In vitro techniques, provides the prerequisite uniform environmental conditions to study the impact of salinity on plant growth and offer a means to focus exclusively on physiological and biochemical processes, which contribute to salinity tolerance.

The present study is an attempt to investigate the response of D. Sissoo against salinity stress at cellular level. The possible outcome of this work can be helpful in figuring out the exact optimum as well as lethal concentration(s) of salt stress which can be further used to develop salt tolerant cell lines of this species.
