Salinity is a major threat to modern agriculture causing inhibition and impairment of crop
growth and development. Here, we not only review recent advances in salinity stress …

Background Salinity is a global issue threatening agricultural production systems across the
globe. While the major focus of plant salinity stress tolerance research has been on sodium …

Intracellular potassium homeostasis is a prerequisite for the optimal operation of plant
metabolic machinery and plant's overall performance. It is controlled by K+ uptake, efflux …

Salt stress impacts multiple aspects of plant metabolism and physiology. For instance it
inhibits photosynthesis through stomatal limitation, causes excessive accumulation of …

Plants have several mechanisms to endure salinity stress. The degree of salt tolerance
varies significantly among different terrestrial crops. Proteins at the plant's cell wall and …

Both in vacuolar and plasma membranes, in addition to truly K+-selective channels there is
a variety of non-selective channels, which conduct K+ and other ions with little preference …

Abscisic acid (ABA), a widely known phytohormone involved in the plant response to abiotic
stress, plays a vital role in mitigating Cd 2+ toxicity in herbaceous species. However, the role …

Soil salinization is a serious environmental hazard, limiting plant growth and production in
different agro-ecological zones worldwide. Diethyl aminoethyl hexanoate (DA-6) as an …

Abiotic stress tolerance is important for trees that have to withstand unfavorable
environmental condi-tions for longer periods of time than crop plants with short life cycles …

Selection and utilization of salt-tolerant crops are essential strategies for mitigating salinity
damage to crop productivity with increasing soil salinization worldwide. This study was …
