Agriculture is expanding into regions that are affected by salinity. This review considers the
energetic costs of salinity tolerance in crop plants and provides a framework for a …

To face future challenges in crop production dictated by global climate changes, breeders
and plant researchers collaborate to develop productive crops that are able to withstand a …

Salinity is one of the major abiotic factors threatening food security worldwide. Recently, our
understanding of early processes underlying salinity tolerance has expanded. In this review …

Plant growth regulators are naturally biosynthesized chemicals in plants that influence
physiological processes. Their synthetic analogous trigger numerous biochemical and …

Soil salinity is a growing problem around the world with special relevance in farmlands. The
ability to sense and respond to environmental stimuli is among the most fundamental …

Potassium is an essential macronutrient that has been partly overshadowed in root science
by nitrogen and phosphorus. The current boom in potassium-related studies coincides with …

The Arabidopsis root has been the subject of intense research over the past decades. This
research has led to significantly improved understanding of the molecular mechanisms …

The development of the plant root system is highly plastic, which allows the plant to adapt to
various environmental stresses. Salt stress inhibits root elongation by reducing the size of …
