Halopriming is soaking of seeds in salt solutions which enhanced germination and seedling emergence uniformity under adverse environmental conditions. Common using salts are NaCl, KCl, KNO3 and CaCl2. The objective of this study to evaluate the effect of seed priming with NaCl (10Mm & 20Mm) and KCl (10Mm & 20Mm) of different concentrations on different physiological attributes like germination percentage, Speed of germination, Germination value of Soybean seed under different salt concentration. Moist towel paper and soil (pot) used as substratum to conduct all the experimental trials. In this experiment it is revealed that, in both the experiments, Seeds primed with KCl (20Mm) recorded highest germination percentage, speed of germination and germination value when compared with untreated control seeds. The aim of the study was to mitigate all ill effects of salinity and improve the performance of seedling under salt stress condition.
