The purpose of this work was the study of salt tolerance of wheat from local selection. Twenty wheatgenotypes were grown under a naturally salinized (1.5-2.0%) soil conditions and studied during theontogenesis. The obtained results showed that the chlorophyll content and photochemical activity ofchloroplasts were reduced in all the genotypes by salinity. Genotypes Giymatli-2/17, Nurlu-99, Qobus-tan, Azamatli-95, Saratovskaya-29 and Gyrmyzy bugda are more tolerant to salinity.
