Abstract

Salinity often construed as one of the serious constraint in crop production under ground level source of irrigation. Ambiance of salinity mechanism utters negative impact on crop production process, growth and development. Also, plant adapt on saline situation triggering salt tolerant genes to face the osmotic or oxidative reactions induced by soil salinity. Further, genetic improvement of pulses under increased salinity is quite complex and less proven progress. Gene alteration for saline resistant considered as a  quite complex phenomenon besides the advances in resign the crop phenotype for this trait over years construed very dawdling in nature. Cited data on crop genetics and genomics failed to project innovative ideas on the synthesis of saline tolerant genotypes. Though substantial advancement have been made in studying the crop mechanism on abiotic stresses, still obstacles remain trendy elaborating the translation and molecular behavior of individual crop.
