To improve our understanding of the carbon cycling response to imminent sea-level rise and
saltwater intrusions, we review the existing literature on the likely effects of the increasing …

Salt-affected soils contain high levels of soluble salts (saline soil) and exchangeable sodium
(alkali soil). Globally, about 932 million ha (Mha), including 831 Mha of agricultural land, is …

In this study, the evaluation of soil characteristics was coupled with a pyrosequencing
analysis of the V2-V3 16S rRNA gene region in order to investigate the bacterial community …

Certain plant growth promoting bacteria can protect associated plants from harmful effects of
salinity. We report the isolation and characterization of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic …

Saline soil is one of the major problems limiting rice productivity in the Northeastern area of
Thailand. Thus, the aims of this study were to determine soil physicochemical analysis and …

High salinity and macronutrient deficiencies are two important limitations of coastal saline
soils. The present study focused on the changes in electrical conductivity (EC), and the …

An integrated view of bacterial and archaeal diversity in saline soil habitats is essential for
understanding the biological and ecological processes and exploiting potential of microbial …

Land degradation and their restoration are emerging issues all over the world for the
environmental management. In this study, degraded sodic land was rehabilitated through …

Soil enzyme activities are considered to be sensitive to changes in soils and have been
proposed as indicators for measuring the degree of soil degradation. However, the reliability …

The main objective of our study was to assess density and diversity of rhizosphere (R) and
endophytic (E) microorganisms associated with the halophyte S. europaea. Microorganisms …
