Salinity is a major threat to modern agriculture causing inhibition and impairment of crop
growth and development. Here, we not only review recent advances in salinity stress …

Global warming causes a range of negative impacts on plants especially due to rapid
changes in temperatures, alterations of rainfall patterns, floods or drought conditions, and …

Salinity is one of the major abiotic stresses which impose constraints to plant growth and
production. Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is one of the most important staple food crops and a model …

Food security and the protection of the environment are urgent issues for global society,
particularly with the uncertainties of climate change. Changing climate is predicted to have a …

Increasing soil salinization largely impacts crop yield worldwide. To deal with salinity stress,
plants exhibit an array of responses, including root system architecture remodelling. Here …

Rice is a premier staple food that constitutes the bulk of the daily diet of the majority of
people in Asia. Agricultural productivity must be boosted to support this huge demand for …

Soil salinity and sodicity are major constraints to global cereal production, but breeding for
tolerance has been slow. Narrow gene pools, over-emphasis on the sodium (Na+) exclusion …

Soil salinity is one of the most limiting stresses for crop productivity and quality worldwide. In
this sense, jasmonates (JAs) have emerged as phytohormones that play essential roles in …

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 …

Maintaining Na+/K+ homeostasis is a critical feature for plant survival under salt stress,
which depends on the operation of Na+ and K+ transporters. Although some K+ transporters …
