Abstract
Response of two Bermuda grass (Cynodon dactylon] varieties, Dacca and Khabal grass, to different levels was studied in a plot experiment. Salinity was developed artificially at levels of ECe 0.6, 5.0, 10.0and 15.0 dS m-I using NaCI. Plant mortality, sodium and chloride concentration in plant increased with the increasing levels of salinity. However, plant fresh and dry weights, leaf area, leaf blade length, stolon diameter and potassium concentration decreased with an increase in salinity. Khabal grass was more tolerant than Dacca grass on the basis of different parameters studied.
