Characterization of Halophyte Rhizosphere Microbiomes at Great Salt Lake, Utah [PDF]
The saline soils comprising the shoreline of Great Salt Lake, Utah (GSL) provide a unique habitat for both halophytes (salt-tolerant plants) and the microorganisms that inhabit their rhizosphere.

Comparative metabolomic analysis between tomato and halophyte plants under intercropping conditions
Halophyte-based intercropping appears nowadays as a valuable approach in soil remediation and agriculture. In this work, intercropping between the halophyte Arthrocaulon macrostachyum and tomato (Solanum lycopersicum var.

The effect of fine dust stress on some functional and physiological characteristics of Salsola imbricata and Salicornia ibricata at different planting dates [PDF]
IntroductionSoil erosion causes storms and the release of fine dust. This has a significant impact on climate change and creates global problems. The first effect of dust on agriculture is in the field of reduced production, reduced diversity and reduced

The halophyte Suaeda salsa can grow in heavy metal-polluted areas along intertidal zones having high salinity. Since phytochelatins can effectively chelate heavy metals, it was hypothesized that S. salsa possessed a phytochelatin synthase (PCS) gene.

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...
