Comparative performance of spectral and thermographic properties of plants and physiological traits for phenotyping salinity tolerance of wheat cultivars under simulated field conditions.Successful plant breeding in saline environments requires high-throughput phenotyping techniques to differentiate genotypes for salinity tolerance.  The comparative performance of spectral reflectance sensing, thermography, digital imaging, and the assessment of physiological traits of two wheat cultivars were tested at booting, anthesis and grain filling.  Among the spectral and thermographic assessments, spectral indices were sufficiently sensitive to detect genotypic differences in salinity tolerance among the wheat cultivars after anthesis for the salinity alone and combined treatments.
