In this study its response to salinity over different development periods (blooming, ginofor formation and fruit formation and maturation) was determined in the Eastern Mediterranean Region. The experimental design was split plot in a randomized complete block with three replications and was conducted in a total of 180 pots. In the irrigaton of groundnut, saline water with electrical conductivity (ECw) 0.19 dS m-1 (T0.19), 3.54 dS m-1 (T3.54), 7.12 dS m-1 (T7.12) and 12.86 dS m-1 (T12.86) were used. It was determined that Ginof formation stage was the most sensitive stage to salinity than the other developmental stages. Yield parameters were affected at p <0.001 level from development stage, irrigation water salinity and the development stage x irrigation water salinity interaction. Chlorophyll values at different salinity levels of stoma conductivity was show that different. The highest and lowest stomatal conductance were realized in T3.54 (356.025 mmol m2s-1) and T12.86 (238.25 mmol m2s-1) issues. Stomatal conductivity showed differences at different salinity levels. The highest and the lowest stoma conductivity monitored at T3.54 (356.025 mmol m2s-1) and T12.86 (238.25 mmol m2s-1). It was observed that the at the plots where the highest stoma conductivity determined had the higest yield.
