Salinity resistance of pear and quince forms

Salt resistance of plants is the ability of agricultural plants to grow on saline soils. In the late XIX - early XX centuries, there was a believe that a large number of soils are characterized by an excessive salt content. It can have a harmful and even destructive effect on the plant organism. In addition, Inept irrigation often leads to salinization. The harmful effect of high salts concentration can also be a result of essentially high doses of mineral fertilizers. The article presents the study results on the significant differences in the salt resistance level of the initial forms of pear and quince in laboratory conditions. To determine the salt resistance, we took leaves and then placed them into a 0.6 % sodium chloride solution. Distilled water was used as a control.
