Abstract
Al is the crucial growth limiting factor for crop production in acidic soil all over the world. This experiment was targeted to screening of 12 barley varieties in presence of Al toxicity and the selection was of most tolerant and susceptible variety. The all 12 barley seeds were grown under in-vitro conditions with different concentrations of AlCl3 (0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 mM) at acidic pH followed by root growth method analysis. The screening was performed using statistical tool one way analysis of variance (ANOVA). The experimental design was completely randomized design (CDR). Data analysis was carried out using SPSS software. Granting to statistical results RD2552 performed as most tolerant and RD2052 performed as susceptible against AlCl3 among all barley varieties.
