Salt-alkali stress is one of the important abiotic stresses affecting crop yield and quality. The QTL mapping associated with crop saline-alkaline tolerance plays an important role in choosing resistant variety. Accurate phenotypic identification is the key to the success of QTL mapping. This research reviewed and discussed the progress of crop phenotypic identification by QTL mapping associated with saline-alkaline tolerance till now, which included materials, medium, stress concentration, stress period, treatment method, measured indicators and evaluation system, etc. Meanwhile, it predicted the prospect of the development of phenotypic identification technique related with crop saline-alkaline tolerance.
