Physiological responses of a halophytic shrub to salt stress by Na2SO4 and NaCl: oxidative damage and the role of polyphenols in antioxidant protection [PDF]
, 2014 Salt stress conditions lead to increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in plant cells. Halophytes have the ability to reduce these toxic ROS by means of a powerful antioxidant system that includes enzymatic and non-enzymatic components.

Flooding tolerance in halophytes [PDF]
New Phytologist, 2008 SummaryFlooding is a common environmental variable with salinity. Submerged organs can suffer from O2deprivation and the resulting energy deficits can compromise ion transport processes essential for salinity tolerance. Tolerance of soil waterlogging in halophytes, as in glycophytes, is often associated with the production of adventitious roots ...

Uptake and accumulation of metals in Spartina alterniflora salt marshes from a South American estuary [PDF]
, 2019 Salt marshes are capable of reducing metal pollution in coastal waters, but this capacity is highly dependent on the metal, the physico-chemical characteristics of the sediment, the plant species, the production of biomass, the time of the year, etc. The

Performance of halophytes in soil desalinization and its influencing factors: a meta-analysis
Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2023 Soil salinization threatening natural and agricultural production challenges global food security. Halophytes are of great interest in soil desalinization in recent years; yet, there is a lack of a comprehensive quantitative overview of biotic and ...

Mechanisms of salt tolerance in halophytes: current understanding and recent advances
Open Life Sciences, 2018 Halophytes are plants that exhibit high salt tolerance, allowing them to survive and thrive under extremely saline conditions. The study of halophytes advances our understanding about the important adaptations that are required for survival in high ...

Transgressivity in Key Functional Traits Rather Than Phenotypic Plasticity Promotes Stress Tolerance in A Hybrid Cordgrass [PDF]
, 2019 Hybridization might promote offspring fitness via a greater tolerance to environmental stressors due to heterosis and higher levels of phenotypic plasticity.

The Halophyte Dehydrin Sequence Landscape [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2022 Dehydrins (DHNs) belong to the LEA (late embryogenesis abundant) family group II, that comprise four conserved motifs (the Y-, S-, F-, and K-segments) and are known to play a multifunctional role in plant stress tolerance. Based on the presence and order of these segments, dehydrins are divided into six subclasses: YnSKn, FnSKn, YnKn, SKn, Kn, and KnS.

Cross-tolerance to abiotic stresses in halophytes: Application for phytoremediation of organic pollutants [PDF]
, 2015 International audienceHalopytes are plants able to tolerate high salt concentrations but no clear definition was retained for them. In literature, there are more studies that showed salt-enhanced tolerance to other abiotic stresses compared to ...

Interactions among salt marsh plants vary geographically but not latitudinally along the California coast. [PDF]
, 2017 The strength of species interactions often varies geographically and locally with environmental conditions. Competitive interactions are predicted to be stronger in benign environments while facilitation is expected to be stronger in harsh ones.
