Soil salinity is a major environmental stress that restricts the growth and yield of crops.
Understanding the physiological, metabolic, and biochemical responses of plants to salt …

At low concentrations salts are relatively benign, but anthropogenic activities can drive
concentrations to levels that impact soil quality, microbial, plant, and animal life. Soil and …

Prolonged periods of drought triggered by climate change hamper plant growth and cause
substantial agricultural yield losses every year. In addition to drought, salinity is one of the …

Soil salinization is an important global issue since marginal salt-affected soils have harmful
consequences in agriculture and ecosystems. This article reviews different sustainable …

The present study tested the efficacy of 24-epibrassinolide (EBL) and calcium (Ca) for
mediating salinity tolerance in tomato. Salinity stress affected the morphological parameters …

Background: Halophytes possess efficient salt-tolerance mechanisms and can complete
their life cycles in naturally saline soils with NaCl contents exceeding 200 mM. While a …

Instances of multicellularity across the tree of life have fostered the evolution of complex
organs composed of distinct cell types that cooperate, producing emergent biological …

This review focuses on the regulation of root water uptake in plants which are exposed to
salt stress. Root water uptake is not considered in isolation but is viewed in the context of …

Background Land plants commonly produce red pigmentation as a response to
environmental stressors, both abiotic and biotic. The type of pigment produced varies among …

Tomato is affected by various biotic and abiotic stresses, especially salinity, which drastically
hinders the growth and yield of tomato. Calcium (Ca) is a vital macronutrient which plays …
