Native Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi Characterization from Saline Lands in Arid Oases, Northwest China

Journal of Fungi, 2020
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) colonize land plants in almost every ecosystem, even in extreme conditions, such as saline soils. In the present work, we report the mycorrhizal capacity of rhizosphere soils collected in the dry desert region of the ...

Accumulation of cadmium by halophytic and non-halophytic Juncus species

Theoretical and Experimental Plant Physiology, 2016
Halophytic plants have developed different strategies to survive and complete their life cycles under high concentrations of salts especially NaCl. Important features of salinity tolerance involve the production of various osmolytes, such as proline, glycine betaine, sugars, and ion compartmentalization.

Genetic analyses of leaf traits in an interspecific Zoysia japonica × Zoysia matrella F2 population

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Zoysiagrass (Zoysia spp.) is an important warm‐season turfgrass cultivated across tropical, subtropical, and temperate regions of the world. The genus is characterized by the presence of salt‐secreting glands on the adaxial leaf surface, which contribute to its high salt tolerance.

Fungal and Fungal-like Diseases of Halophytes in the Mediterranean Basin: A State-of-the-Art Review

Horticulturae
Halophytes are salt-tolerant plants growing in saline ecosystems and are spread throughout the Mediterranean area. Recently, there has been a renewed interest in agricultural exploitation of halophytes, but poor attention has been given to pest and ...

Commercially Exploited Seaweed Species in Africa: Occurrences, Chemical Composition, Current Value Chain and Opportunities for Value Addition

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 4, September 2026.
Commercially exploited seaweed species in Africa, their biochemical composition, current uses, and value chain are reviewed. Potential value‐addition of seaweed is suggested regionally in Africa amongst countries producing similar seaweed species. ABSTRACT Africa has a wide range of coastal environments that support a diverse array of seaweed species ...

A Bibliometric‐Based Review of Biochar for Salt‐Affected Soil Restoration: Mapping Research Trends and Future Directions

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 13, Page 8963-8985, 15 August 2026.
ABSTRACT In recent years, biochar has been studied for its range of applications. Recognized by the IPCC as a key Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) strategy, it also stands out as an important tool for reclaiming degraded lands, including vast global areas affected by salinity, such as those in China, India, and Australia.

Foliar salt spray exclusion and tissue tolerance underlie local adaptation to oceanic salt spray

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Premise Surviving the effects of oceanic salt spray is critical for plants in coastal ecosystems, yet the mechanisms of coastal plant resilience to salt spray are not well understood. We investigated mechanisms of salt spray adaptation by comparing five latitudinal pairs of yellow monkeyflower accessions locally adapted to coastal and inland ...

Mountain Croplands as Biodiversity Refugia: External Ecotones in the Central Tian‐Shan of Kyrgyzstan Warrant Conservation Priority

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
External ecotones are local hotspots across cultural and natural landscapes. Floral composition reflects external ecotones and regional species pool influence. Patchy mountain croplands are essential for long‐term conservation strategies. ABSTRACT The Mountains of Central Asia constitute one of the world's most vulnerable yet least protected ...

Taxonomic reappraisal of the mangrove genus Avicennia (Acanthaceae) in India

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.
A taxonomic reappraisal of the mangrove genus Avicennia in India was undertaken through extensive field surveys and critical examination of herbarium specimens. Three taxa, Avicennia alba, Avicennia marina subsp. marina, and Avicennia officinalis, are described in detail. A synonymic list was compiled using the World Checklist of Vascular Plants (WCVP)
