ABSTRACT:
Improved salt tolerant cultivars of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) are provided having enhanced germination and plant vigor properties in saline soil conditions. The preferred cultivars, ZS-9491 (ATCC 209015) and ZS-9592 (ATCC 209014), were derived from a cross of known alfalfa germplasms with subsequent recurrent selection for pre- and post-germination viability.
