Interaction of Salinity and Industrial Effluents on the Growth of Dalbergia sissoo (Shisham) Seedlings

Dalbergia sissoo seedlings were grown in the nursery and then transplanted in plastic pots. Single salinity as well as both salinity and industrial effluents were applied to the seedlings. Data revealed that height, fresh shoot weight, oven dry shoot weight and leaf area were affected significantly with the application of salinity and industrial effluents. Double stress of salinity and industrial effluents was more serious (e.g. 35 cm at EC 2 dSm-1) as compared to single stress of salts (57.75 cm) in
