No quantitative information is available regarding the salt tolerance of eggplant (Solanum melongena L.). The present study was conducted over a two-year period in small field plots irrigated by drip, where irrigation frequency was also a variable. The salt tolerance function may be described by the equation Yr=100-6.9 (ECe-1.1), where Yr=relative yield of fruit, ECe=the mean integrated electrical conductivity at the soil saturation extract, 1.1 dS/m=threshold salinity. Salt was distributed reasonably uniformly within the root zone. © 1986 Martinus Nijhoff Publishers.
