A Na pump with reduced stoichiometry is up-regulated by brine shrimp in extreme salinities
Brine shrimp ( Artemia ) are the only animals to thrive at sodium concentrations above 4 M. Salt excretion is powered by the Na + ,K + -ATPase (NKA), a heterodimeric (αβ) pump that usually exports 3Na + in exchange for 2 K +

Rice is a staple crop for over 50% of the world’s population, but its sensitivity to salinity poses a threat to meeting the worldwide demand. This study investigated the correlation of salinity tolerance to Na+ exclusion, proline accumulation, and ...

MINERAL CONTENT IN THE LEAVES OF SWEET PEPPER PLANT IN RESPONSE TO CERTAIN BIO-STIMULANTS UNDER SALT STRESS CONDITIONS [PDF]
N, P, K+ and Mg2+ concentration as well as K+/Na+ ratio in sweet pepper root, shoot, and fruits were significantly increased at the low salinity level NaCl+CaCl2 (2000 mg/L) followed by CaCl2.

Effects of non-uniform root zone salinity on water use, Na+ recirculation, and Na+ and H+ flux in cotton [PDF]
A new split-root system was established through grafting to study cotton response to non-uniform salinity. Each root half was treated with either uniform (100/100 mM) or non-uniform NaCl concentrations (0/200 and 50/150 mM). In contrast to uniform control, non-uniform salinity treatment improved plant growth and water use, with more water absorbed from

The Response of Three Mandarin Cultivars Grafted on Sour Orange Rootstock to Salinity Stress
Citrus growth is often constrained by salinity, but citrus rootstocks respond to salinity differently. A greenhouse study was carried out in a completely randomized design with three cultivars of mandarin (‘Younesi,’ ‘Clementine,’ and ‘Yashar’) and four ...

The effects of salinity stress on the growth and some physiological parameters of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) seedlings [PDF]
Salinity is one of the major abiotic stresses that adversely affects crop productivity and quality. In this study, an experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of salinity stress on some physiological parameters of wheat seedlings.
