Abstract
⺠Panicum turgidum could survive in up to seawater salinity (500 mM NaCl). ⺠Moderate salinity has little effect on plant growth. ⺠Photosynthesis is positively related to salinity in influencing growth. ⺠Photoinhibition under saline conditions causing oxidative stress. ⺠Results indicate that Panicum may be used as fodder crop for saline areas.
