Abstract
At Department of Agricultural Chemistry and Soil Science a pot experiment was conducted during the rabi, season of 2017-18. Department of Agricultural Chemistry and Soil Science situated at College of Agriculture, Junagadh Agricultural University, Junagadh, Gujarat. The objective of the study is to assess the consequences of saline irrigation water on yield of Onion (Allium Cepa L.) varieties. The study also possess the growth and nutrients composition of Onion (Allium Cepa L.) varieties and effect of saline irrigation water on it. Four levels of salinity are contained viz., < 2.0, 4.0, 6.0 and 8.0 dS m-1. GJWO-3, GJRO-11, Talaj red, Pilli patti and PWF-131 these five varieties comprised in factorial completely randomized design with three replications. It found that the yield of chlorophyll a (5.77 mg/gf.wt), chlorophyll-b (4.22 mg/gf.wt), and total chlorophyll were significantly influenced by different levels of salinity, whereas; yield of fresh straw (37.03 g/pot), bulb (37.49 g/pot), RWC, proline (0.96 µmole/gf.wt), were significantly influenced among different varieties of onion tested.
