One of the most significant environmental factors affecting plant growth, development and
productivity is salt stress. The damage caused by salt to plants mainly includes ionic …

An increase of abiotic stress tolerance and nutritive value of foods is currently a priority
because of climate change and rising world population. Among abiotic stresses, salt stress …

Salinity is an abiotic stress that affects agriculture by severely impacting crop growth and,
consequently, final yield. Considering that sea levels rise at an alarming rate of> 3 mm per …

Climate change and a rising world population make generation of crops with enhanced
abiotic stress tolerance and higher nutritive value a priority objective in agriculture. In this …

High temperature induced by climatic fluctuations are an important threat for plant growth,
development and quality of agricultural produces. Adaptableness to environmental changes …

Soil salinity is one of the main barriers to increasing global food production as it reduces
crop growth and productivity. While irrigated lands in arid climates (about 20% of total …

BACKGROUND Global warming and extreme or adverse events induced by climatic
fluctuations are an important threat for plants growth and agricultural production. Adaptability …

Salinity stress limits plant growth and has a major impact on agricultural productivity. Here,
we identify NAC transcription factor SlTAF1 as a regulator of salt tolerance in cultivated …

Identification of tomato varieties able to exhibit higher accumulation of primary and
secondary metabolites in their fruits is currently a main objective in tomato breeding. One …

Water deficit and soil salinity lead to lower yield by limiting fruit growth. Investigating the
process mechanisms by which water and salt stress limit fruit growth is important to fully …
