**5. Conclusion**

Salinity is the one of threaten to the rice cultivation, here, the development of salt tolerance cultivar is difficult because it control by many genes and associated with environmental factors. The screening of germplasm used to select the better lines

which is used for the developing salt tolerance lines. This is done through conventional and genomic approaches. In conventional method it contain limited level of success due to the time consumption and cost. So, the genomic and molecular approaches used to develop the salt tolerant lines with cost effective and in low time period (**Figure 1**).
