Halophytes As Bioenergy Crops [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016 Shrinking arable land due to soil salinization and, depleting fresh water resources pose serious worldwide constraints to crop productivity. A vision of using plant feedstock for biofuel production can only be realized if we can identify alternate ...

Proteomics, metabolomics, and ionomics perspectives of salinity tolerance in halophytes
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015 Halophytes are plants which naturally survive in saline environment. They account for approximately 1% of the total flora of the world. They include both dicots and monocots and are distributed mainly in arid, semi-arid inlands and saline wet lands along
