Abstract: The present study was undertaken for screening of seedling in 50 chickpea genotypes on root length and shoot length traits of chickpea. Seven lines have been putatively identified to be tolerant to seedling salt stress. They are ICCV 92311, ICCV 10315, ICCV 00102, IG5856 (4 % reduction in seedling parameters studies under salt stress) are the most tolerant along with the established checks ICCV10, CSG 8962 and JG62. Selection for genotypes with tolerance to salt stress will ensure greater establishment of seedlings in saline soils and better yield under salt stress. Current study help to Identification of new donors for salinity salt tolerance.
