Abstract: An out door pot experiment was carried out to investigate the influence of salt stress on performance of four linseed (Linum usìtatìssìmum L.) genotypes namely, Laxmi-27, Parvati, Rashmi and Shubhra in terms of growth, carbonic anhydrase (CA: EC 4.2. 1.1) and Nitrate Reductase (NR: ECI 6.6. 1) activities, net photosynthetic rate (Pn), chlorophyll content, Electrolyte Leakage (EL), Leaf Relative Water Content (LRWC) and proline content, studied at 60 and 75 days after sowing and fibre content and yield parameters at harvest. .......
