natural and artificial factors are climate change drivers, although the effect of natural factors …

Plant growth and development is adversely affected by different kind of stresses. One of the
major abiotic stresses, salinity, causes complex changes in plants by influencing the …

Field-based trials and genotype evaluation until yielding stage are two important steps in
improving the salt tolerance of crop genotypes and identifying what parameters can be …

Plant growth and development are adversely affected by salinity–a major environmental
stress that limits agricultural production. This chapter provides an overview of the …

About 6% of the total land area in the world and 20% of the irrigated land is suffering from
salt stress. Egypt is one of the countries that suffer from salt stress problems. The aim of this …

Most work on wheat breeding for salt tolerance has focused mainly on excluding Na+ from
uptake and transport to the shoot. However, some recent findings have reported no apparent …

Moringa oleifera leaf extract (MLE) is rich in amino acids, ascorbate, zeatin, minerals, and
many other compounds known for their growth-promoting potential. Therefore, a pot …

Wheat is the most important crop grown on many of world's saline and sodic soils, and
