Abstract
Germination of three populations of Kochia indica Wight from contrasting soil types were studied under various levels of salinity, alkalinity and osmotic stress with a view to evaluate their potential to establish through seeds in saline and alkaline environments of various magnitudes. The seeds were germinated under controlled conditions in Petri dishes using salinized solutions of NaCl, Na 2 SO 4 , (electrical conductivity, EC, 4-16 ds cm -1 ), sodium carbonate solutions (pH 8.5-10.0), mannitol solutions (-2.5 to -10.0 bar) andde-ionised distilled water (control)
