Tomato is an essential annual crop providing human food worldwide. It is estimated that by
the year 2050 more than 50% of the arable land will become saline and, in this respect, in …

Imported from the Andean region to Europe in the 16th century, today tomato is widespread
throughout the world and represents the most economically important vegetable crop …

Abiotic stresses, such as drought, salinity, extreme temperatures, chemical toxicity and
oxidative stress are serious threats to agriculture and the natural status of the environment …

Salinity is an ever‐present threat to crop yields, especially in countries where irrigation is an
essential aid to agriculture. Although the tolerance of saline conditions by plants is variable …

In recent decades, the demand for vegetables has increased significantly due to the
blooming global population. Climate change has affected vegetable production by …

High concentrations of Na+ in saline soils inhibit plant growth and reduce agricultural
productivity. We report here that CaMV 35S promoter driven overexpression of the …

Soil salinity is a major environmental constraint to crop productivity worldwide. The
“biological” approach to this problem focuses on the management, exploitation, or …

Abiotic stresses including drought are serious threats to the sustainability of crop yields
accounting for more crop productivity losses than any other factor in rainfed agriculture …

In this paper, a number of strategies to overcome the deleterious effects of salinity on plants
will be reviewed; these strategies include using molecular markers and genetic …

Plant salinity tolerance is a polygenic trait with contributions from genetic, developmental,
and physiological interactions, in addition to interactions between the plant and its …
