This review deals with the adaptive mechanisms that plants can implement to cope with the
challenge of salt stress. Plants tolerant to NaCl implement a series of adaptations to …

Plants exposed to salt stress undergo changes in their environment. The ability of plants to
tolerate salt is determined by multiple biochemical pathways that facilitate retention and/or …

Abstract Background and Aims Osmolytes are low-molecular-weight organic solutes, a
broad group that encompasses a variety of compounds such as amino acids, tertiary …

Background Salt stress has become a major threat to plant growth and productivity.
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi colonize plant root systems and modulate plant growth in …

The ability of plants to tolerate salts is determined by multiple biochemical pathways that
facilitate retention and/or acquisition of water, protect chloroplast functions and maintain ion …

Since the publication of the third edition of the Handbook of Plant and Crop Stress,
continuous discoveries in the fields of plant and crop environmental stresses and their …

Our objective was to evaluate the role of Azotobacter strains to protect maize plants against
salt damage. Four candidate Azotobacter strains were evaluated, and the two most tolerant …

Salinity in agricultutal terms is the excess of salts above the level plant require. Most often it
poses constrains in the growth hence productivity of the category of plants called …

The increasing seriousness of salinization aggravates the food, population and
environmental issues. Ameliorating the salt-resistance of plants especially the crops is the …

The effects of a range of salinity (0, 100, 200 and 400 mM NaCl) on growth, ion
accumulation, photosynthesis and anatomical changes of leaves were studied in the …
