Abstract: Salinity is considered in major abiotic stress creating constraints to plant growth and productivity. The knowledge of tolerant genotypes and their variability is an important requirement for success of any breeding programme. Therefore present study was attempted to screen salinity tolerance in ten lentil genotypes on the basis of their morphological, physiological and yield attributes. On the basis of experimental findings, the genotypes PDL1 were found to be highly tolerant and genotype PL07, PL04, IPL316, IPL406 was moderately tolerant whereas genotypes L4076, L4147, DPL62, DPL58 and K75 were found sensitive among studied genotypes under both salinity levels. However on the basis of yield attributes, the genotype PDL1 was found to be most tolerant among studied genotypes under both salinity levels. The genotype PDL1 will be very beneficial for the farmer belong to area which is salt affected to achieve higher pulse production.
