Soil salinization is a significant global challenge impacting food security and arable land safety. Biological amelioration for the development and utilization of salt-alkali land has gained attention in recent years but the breeding and selection of salt-alkali-tolerant crop varieties remain a challenge. Cultivated soybeans are moderately salt-tolerant crops; however, a precise threshold for salt-alkali conditions has not been determined and varies by genotype. Therefore, this study evaluated the salt-alkali tolerance of 15 different soybean varieties using correlation, principal component, membership function, and cluster analyses. The average soybean indices decreased with increasing salt-alkali stress concentrations. Under severe salt-alkali stress, the coefficients of variation for grain yield and biomass were significantly higher than those under mild salt-alkali stress. Plant height and node number were significantly positively correlated, whereas bottom pod height was significantly negatively correlated with branch number, effective pod number, and grain number per plant. Node and grain numbers per plant were significantly positively correlated. Branch number, effective pod number, grain number per plant, and hundred-grain weight were significantly and positively correlated. Effective pod number was significantly positively correlated with grain number per plant, biomass, and yield. Grain number per plant exhibited a significant negative correlation with hundred-grain weight. Biomass and yield were significantly positively correlated. The salt-alkali tolerance of 15 soybean varieties ranged from strong weak as follows: Cangdou 1438, 0734, 1426, 1418, 1453, 1327, 1846, 1412, 1817, 1301, 1821, 1819, 1815, 1814, and 1850. Salt-alkali-sensitive and salt-alkali-tolerant varieties were successfully identified.
