  The most of forest and fruit trees are not resistant to brackish water of Caspian Sea. In the current research, seedlings of some forest species such as Celtis australis, Fraxinus excelsior, Olea europaea, Quercus macranthera, Eucalyptus camaldulensis, Pyrus boisseriana and Pinus nigra were irrigated by Caspian Sea water for 2 months in the middle of summer for surveying of the water source in forest nursery. Biomass allocation was our criteria. The result showed that plant biomass of C. australis is decreased around 12% when was subjected by this water source while we could not find any considerable and significantly changing for others. We found out that forest nursery manager can irrigate the forest seedlings at least in case of the current species by water of Caspian Sea at dry seasons.  Manuscript profile
