Salinity is associated with reduced water availability because of the drop in soil water potential. Under salt stress, sorghum can lower leaf water potential to maintain water uptake and cell hydration, resulting in osmotic adjustment (Yang et al., 1990; Weimberg et al., 1984). The objective of this investigation was to determine the effects on sorghum growth and leaf water status at varying levels of soil and water salinity
