Raeuseh. were investigated. In addition, the amylase activity was measured. The results showed that the four Canavium album Raeuseh cultivars were sensitive to NaCI stress in varying de- grees. When the NaCI concentration was less than 0.8%, the seed germination rates of the four Canavium album Raeuseh cultivars were all higher than 90%. However, with the increased NaCI concentration, the water intake by seed germina- tion was inhibited, the amylase activity was decreased, and the germination rate, germination index and vigor index were all trended to be decreased, which differed among the four test cultivars. When the NaCl concentration was less than 0.4%, the seedling growths of the four Canavium album Raeuseh cultivars were not af- fected.
