Do halophytes and glycophytes differ in their interactions with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi under salt stress? A meta-analysis

Botanical Studies, 2020
Background Halophytes are better than glycophytes at employing mechanisms to avoid salt injury, but both types of plants can undergo damage due to high soil salinity.

Halophytes Differ in Their Adaptation to Soil Environment in the Yellow River Delta: Effects of Water Source, Soil Depth, and Nutrient Stoichiometry

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The Yellow River Delta is water, salt, and nutrient limited and hence the growth of plants depend on the surrounding factors. Understanding the water, salt, and stoichiometry of plants and soil systems from the perspective of different halophytes is ...

Bacterial Community Structure and Potential Microbial Coexistence Mechanism Associated with Three Halophytes Adapting to the Extremely Hypersaline Environment

Microorganisms, 2022
Halophytes play a crucial ecological role in drought and saline–alkali environments. However, there is limited knowledge about the structure of bacterial communities and the potential microbial coexistence mechanism associated with halophytes. This study

Manipulating the antioxidant capacity of halophytes to increase their cultural and economic value through saline cultivation. [PDF]

, 2014
Halophytes, salt-tolerant plants, are a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value. The steady-state pools of many stress-related metabolites are already enhanced in halophytes when compared with glycophytes, but growth under ...
