Salinity is an important environmental constraint to crop productivity in arid and semi-arid
regions of the world. Most crop plants, including tomato, Lycopersicon esculentum Mill., are …

Salinity in soil or water is a serious threat to global agriculture; the expected acreage
affected by salinity is about 20% of the global irrigated lands. Improving salt tolerance of …

The term stress is defined as an environmental change that tends to inhibit the normal cycle
systems from functioning. Plant species or varieties differ in terms of their optimal …

The objective of the present work was to determine the effect of salicylic acid (SA, 0.5 mM)
on plant growth parameters, free osmolytes (proline and glycinebetaine) and enzyme …

With the aim of determining whether grafting could improve salinity tolerance of tomato
(Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.), and what characteristics of the rootstock were required to …

The effect of salt stress was studied on free proline accumulation, activities of pyrroline-5-
carboxylate reductase (P-5-CR), proline oxidase and γ-glutamyl kinase, glycinebetaine …

In order to determine the predictive screening parameters that can be applied at early
development stages of tomato plants, 55 tomato genotypes were grown in nutrient solution …

Despite the intensive management practices available to modern agriculture, drought and
salinity are still major constraints on crop production and food security. Yield losses to …

A greenhouse study was conducted in order to determine interactive effects of NaCl salinity
and B on the growth, sodium (Na), chloride (Cl), boron (B), potassium (K) concentrations and …

With the aim of determining whether the rootstock effect depends on the shoot genotype, two
distinctly different tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill) genotypes, Moneymaker with …
