The yield losses caused by these stresses are accounted to 6.4 million tonnes (t)/ year on global production. To improve any existing cultivar and harness the genetic regions involved in the tolerance it is important to understand the genetic and physiological mechanisms that underlie any tolerance. The objectives of this study were to (i) understanding the effect of either water deficit or salt stress on the reproductive biology of genotypes know to contrast for either salt or drought stress and (ii) construction of genetic map and identification of QTLs and candidate genes for salinity tolerance in 188 RILs derived from the ICCV 2 × JG 11 cross. In the water deficit study conducted in two consecutive years, ten genotypes with contrasting yields under terminal drought stress in the field were exposed to a gradual, but similar, water stress in the glasshouse.
