The demand for salinity-tolerant turfgrasses is increasing due to augmented use of effluent or low-quality water (sea water) for turf irrigation and the growing turfgrass industry in coastal areas. Experimental plants, grown in plastic pots filled with a mixture of river sand and KOSAS R  peat (9 : 1), were irrigated with sea water at different dilutions imparting salinity levels of 0, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, or 48 dS m −1 . Salinity tolerance was evaluated on the basis of leaf firing, shoot and root growth reduction, proline content, and relative water content.  Paspalum vaginatum  was found to be most salt tolerant followed by  Zoysia japonica  and  Zoysia matrella , while  Digitaria didactyla ,  Cynodon dactylon  “Tifdwarf,” and  Cynodon dactylon  “Satiri” were moderately tolerant. The results indicate the importance of turfgrass varietal selection for saline environments.
