Evaluation of the Main Qualitative and Quantitative Characters in the New Genotype of Salsola Soda Studied at the Buzău Plant Genetic Resources Bank

The present study aims to evaluate a new genotype of Salsola soda, a halophyte plant conserved at Plant Genetic Resources Bank Buzau. Soil salinity is becoming the key factor constraining agricultural production, which is why salt-tolerant species are increasingly being considered and will be of gre...

description The present study aims to evaluate a new genotype of Salsola soda, a halophyte plant conserved at Plant Genetic Resources Bank Buzau. Soil salinity is becoming the key factor constraining agricultural production, which is why salt-tolerant species are increasingly being considered and will be of great economic importance. Salsola soda is a plant with multiple uses: food, biodesalinant, companion plant in intercrops. Within the group of halophyte plants conserved in the Bank's germplasm collection, the species Salsola soda has been studied with particular emphasis, carrying out phenological observations, biometric determinations and laboratory analyses according to UPOV and IGPRI descriptors. Following the observations, the genotype L3 was genetically stabilized with the following characteristics: plant height of 134 cm average; plant diameter of 109 cm average, green mass of 2078 g average. The genotype studied meets the DUS test, can be cultivated throughout our country, especially on arid and high salinity soils, and can be used in various human food preparations.
