Potassium in plants: Growth regulation, signaling, and environmental stress tolerance
Potassium (K) is an essential element for the growth and development of plants; however, its
scarcity or excessive level leads to distortion of numerous functions in plants. It takes part in …

The Role of Na+ and K+ Transporters in Salt Stress Adaptation in Glycophytes
Ionic stress is one of the most important components of salinity and is brought about by
excess Na+ accumulation, especially in the aerial parts of plants. Since Na+ interferes with …
