Plant and Soil, 1985 The cellular basis of salt tolerance in halophytes depends upon the compartmentation of ions necessary for osmoregulation in vacuoles and upon osmotic adjustment of the cytoplasm by compatible solutes. The central role played by Na+ and Cl− in osmotic adjustment suggests that the transport of these ions and its regulation must be of primary importance ...
