This experiment was conducted in 2010 at the seed laboratory of Shahrud Agricultural Research Center, Iran, to study the effect of salinity stress on the germination of borage. The experiment was conducted in the form of a randomized complete block design with four replications. Treatments included different levels of salinity stress including 40, 80 and 120 mM NaCl and the control. Results indicated that control had the best germination features with 85% germination percent and 120 mM salinity level resulted in the weakest germination, with germination percent of 70%.
