Abstract

Salinity stress has significantly reduced world crop growth and production, especially in arid and semi-arid regions (Bahadorkhah and kazemeini, 2014). Drought and salinity reduce crop productivity, especially in arid and semi-arid regions. Therefore, finding a crop which produces yield under these adverse conditions is very important (Razzaghi et al, 2011). Quinoa is a new plant with a high nutritional value that has led the World Food Organization (FAO) to call it vegetarian caviar (Seifati et al, 2015). Quinoa is a species of passionate herb (Adolf et al, 2013), and most Quinoa cultivars have the ability to grow in salinity with a concentration of 40 dS / m and even more. This amount of salinity is too high for most crops (Jacobsen et al, 2003, Hariadi et al, 2010).
