The current work aims to assess response of ber cultivars to different level of salinity. The salinity level (0, , , , dSm-1 ECe) had detrimental effects on growth and mineral composition of transplanted six ber cultivars. High levels of salts tolerated by most of the varieties but severely limit plant growth. High soil salinity decreased the growth (plant height, stem diameter, number of leaves per plant and dry matter yield) and mineral composition of leaves above conductivity of 12 dSm-1 ECe. The Na+ and Clcontent of leaves were increased with increasing the levels of salinity, whereas N, P, K+ , Ca++ and Mg++ content was decreased. | Responses of ber Zizyphus mauritiana Lamk. varieties to different level of salinity
