Enhancement of salinity tolerance in wheat through soil applied calcium carbide
Calcium carbide (CaC2) has been reported to increase growth and yield of crops under normal soil conditions. This study assessed its capacity to enhance salinity tolerance in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.; cv- 1076) under saline conditions. Three levels of salinity: 0, 7 and 12 dS m-1 were created u...
