Genetic Variation in Responses to Salt Stress in Tunisian Populations of Medicago ciliaris

open access: yesAgronomy, 2022
Soil salinity is one of the most serious environmental factors affecting crop productivity around the world. We used a morpho-physiological approach to investigate the salt responses of four Tunisian natural populations of Medicago ciliaris.

Predator avoidance in extremophile fish [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Extreme habitats are often characterized by reduced predation pressures, thus representing refuges for the inhabiting species. The present study was designed to investigate predator avoidance of extremophile populations of Poecilia mexicana and P ...

ROS Accumulation and TTC Reduction in Growing Embryo of Crithmum maritimum L. Isolated from Water or Salt Imbibed Seeds

open access: yesNotulae Scientia Biologicae, 2011
The salinity induced inhibition of seeds germination remains not clear at physiological levels. The aims of this study is to investigate the effect of salt on germination, embryo growth, superoxide anion radical (O2·-) and the respiratory activity (TTC ...

The halotolerant rizhobacterium Glutamicibacter sp. alleviates salt impact on Phragmites australis by producing exopolysaccharides and limiting plant sodium uptake

open access: yesPlant Direct, 2023
Salinity is a widespread abiotic stress, which has strong adverse effects on plant growth and crop productivity. Exopolysaccharides (EPS) play a crucial role in plant growth‐promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR)‐mediated improvement of plant stress tolerance ...

Short-term changes in antioxidant response of Eutrema salsugineum exposed to severe salinity

open access: yesNotulae Scientia Biologicae, 2023
Salinity is one of the major constraints limiting plant productivity. Understanding the mechanism of salinity tolerance is a necessary step for improving crops yield in saline conditions.

Divergent evolution of male aggressive behaviour : another reproductive isolation barrier in extremophile poeciliid fishes? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Reproductive isolation among locally adapted populations may arise when immigrants from foreign habitats are selected against via natural or (inter-)sexual selection (female mate choice).

Big Sound and Extreme Fungi—Xerophilic, Halotolerant Aspergilli and Penicillia with Low Optimal Temperature as Invaders of Historic Pipe Organs

open access: yesLife, 2018
Recent investigations have shown that xerophilic fungi may pose a biodeterioration risk by threatening objects of cultural heritage including many types of materials, including wood, paint layers, organic glues or leather and even metal.

Seed Priming with Salicylic Acid Alleviates Salt Stress Toxicity in Barley by Suppressing ROS Accumulation and Improving Antioxidant Defense Systems, Compared to Halo- and Gibberellin Priming

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2023
Plants are highly sensitive to various environmental stresses, which can hinder their growth and reduce yields. In this study, we investigated the potential of seed priming with salicylic acid (SA), gibberellic acid (GA3), and sodium chloride (NaCl) to ...

Evaluation of salinity tolerance indices in North African barley accessions at reproductive stage

open access: yesCzech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding, 2019
Soil salinity is one of the main factors limiting cereal productivity in worldwide agriculture. Exploitation of natural variation in local barley germplasm is an effective approach to overcome yield losses.
