A comparison of hydroponic and soil-based screening methods to identify salt tolerance in the field in barley [PDF]
Success in breeding crops for yield and other quantitative traits depends on the use of methods to evaluate genotypes accurately under field conditions. Although many screening criteria have been suggested to distinguish between genotypes for their salt ...
