Frequency distribution of three salt-responsive traits, standard salt injury evaluation score (a), cell membrane stability (CMS), and relative water content (RWC) (b) in the 402 F₃ progeny, including ‘Jao Khao’ and IR29 (parents), and the standard salt-tolerant variety, ‘Pokkali’. Standard salt injury evaluation scores were collected on days 3, 6, 9, and 12 after salt stress treatment. The scores shown for the parents (‘Jao Khao’ and IR29) and ‘Pokkali’ were recorded on day 12 after salt stress, and CMS and RWC were collected on the same day.
