Abstract

This research was lay out in Al-Hask (10km East Haska) during 2019 agricultural season for Testing some maize hybrids to salinity tolerance by used RCBD with two factors, Hybrids (6) and salinity levels (2, 4, 6 and 8 ds/m). The results showed that significant differences for all characters. The salinity due to decrease it. The Hyb2 was best Hybrid (higher yield, 9.895 ton/ha, 100 seed weight (50 g) LAI (6.7) and plant height was in (195cm).

Key words: maize, hybrid, salt stress, genotype.
