Tolerance to drought at seedling and reproductive stage was evaluated with mean membership index value averaged over those of plant height, number of leaves on main stem, dry root weight, and dry stem and leaf weight at seedling stage,as well as plant height, number of nodes on main stem, number of branches on main stem, number of pods per plant, number of seeds per plant, 1002seed weight, dry root weight, and dry stem and leaf weight at reproductive stage, respectively. Tolerance to aluminum toxin at seedling stage was evaluated with the same set of root traits as those for tolerance to drought at seedling stage. Tolerance to low phosphorus was evaluated through testing the P content in plants. Accessions with 1 abiotic stress tolerance were screened out, including four tolerant to drought at seedling stage, six tolerant to drought at reproductive stage, and among them two tolerant to drought at both stages seven tolerant to aluminum toxin at seedling stage, three tolerant to low phosphorus, and among them,two tolerant to both stresses at seedling stage. The mean membership index of drought tolerance was correlated with the relative values of total root length, root volume and dry root weight per plant significantly at the probability level, respectively the mean membership index of tolerance to aluminum toxin was correlated with the stressed to unstressed relative values of number of lateral roots, main root length, total root length, root volume and dry root weight and there was no root trait found to be correlated with tolerance to low phosphorus.
