The
experiment designed a completely randomized experimental design was carried out
Adnan Menderes University, Agriculture Faculties greenhouse. Quinoa variety candidate
named “Saponinsiz” is used experimental material. The seeds were sowed in plastic
pots filled with soil and perlite (%50+%50) at the greenhouse with six replicates.
Five different salt concentrations were determined as 0 (control), 4 ds m-1,
8 ds m-1, 16 ds m-1 and 30 ds m-1 and were applied
with NaCl solution which was prepared before sowing. Leaf number, leaf length, leaf
width, leaf thickness, stem thickness and green biomass weight values were measured when the quinoa
plant reached 6 leaf stage. As a result of the study, it was observed that the differences
between the salt concentrations in leaf number, leaf length, leaf width and green
biomass weight were significant. The maximum leaf length (11.53 mm) was measured
with 8 ds m-1 salt concentration applied plants, whereas the maximum
leaf width (4.99 mm) and green biomass (1019.5 mg) were measured with 4 ds m-1. The control plot only showed the highest
values for the leaf
number value. These results confirmed that the quinoa plant was facultative halophytic
species (salt-resistant). It was determined that 16 ds m-1 dose gave
the lowest values in all measurements. And any plant wasn’t growing at the 30 ds
m-1 applied pots. The values of the experiment measured of 4 ds m-1
pots and 8 ds m-1 pots, which is considered the limit values for the
field crops, were approximately equal or greater than control pots. Moreover, there
was a rapid decline of plant on the 16 ds m-1 values.
