Abstract

Semi-arid cropping regions are commonly affected by surface crusting of sodic soils, resulting in reduced seedling emergence and grain yield. Although seedlings of different genotypes potentially differ in their ability to emerge through soil crusts, the underlying reasons for these differences remain unclear.
