Abstract : The effect of chemical scarification, salinity and preheating on the germination of P. farcta as a primary step for its propagation in the newly reclaims lands in Egyptian desert, were studied. Thermal pretreatment showed no germination without chemical scarification, similar to those of untreated seeds. Moderate salinity, 75 and 100 mM NaCl did not affect the final germination percent, while the high salinity levels (150 and 200 mM NaCl), decreased by about 30 % and 70 %, respectively. Germination percentage and the vigour value were increased with increasing time exposure periods of sulphoric acid, it reached 100 % after 15 min. The present study confirm the ability of P. farcta to grow in salt affected soil but its seeds needs scarification.
