Çiftçi, İdil (2022) How does increasing concentrations of salinity (0,0.1,0.2,0.3,0.4mol ????−???? ) affect the number of germinated seeds of Salicornia europaea and Triticium aestivium seeds in 7 days as an indication of rate of growth and germination? Other thesis, TED Ankara Koleji.

Abstract
One of the greatest limitations of a crop is caused by salinity in water and soil. Salinity in soil is caused by soluble salt mixing with underground water, and as groundwater rises to the surface through capillary, water vaporizes, and thus salt accumulates on soil. Salt accumulation is affecting more than %20 of cultivated land worldwide and at a 10% rate. It is increasing annually for diverse reasons, such as high surface evaporation, low precipitation, saline water irrigation and insufficient cultural practices. It is anticipated to increase by up to 50% by 2050.3 Salinity harms seed germination, delays plant development, decreases crop yield, and reduces food availability.4 Therefore, more sustainable sources of food like halophytes, which are naturally evolved salt-tolerant plants, are seen as a choice. They have been reported to be able to tolerate up to 0.5 mol salinity, as in the case of Salicornia europaea.
