A novel salinity proxy based on Na incorporation into foraminiferal calcite [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2013 Salinity and temperature determine seawater density, and differences in both thereby control global thermohaline circulation. Whereas numerous proxies have been calibrated and applied to reconstruct temperature, a direct and independent proxy for ...

Salinity control on Na incorporation into calcite tests of the planktonic foraminifera Trilobatus sacculifer – evidence from culture experiments and surface sediments [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2018 The quantitative reconstruction of past seawater salinity has yet to be achieved, and the search for a direct and independent salinity proxy is ongoing. Recent culture and field studies show a significant positive correlation of Na∕Ca with salinity in

Mineral nutrient analysis of three halophytic grasses under sodic and saline stress conditions
The Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2022 Present study was carried out to assess the effects of soil salinity/sodicity on mineral nutrient status of Urochondra setulosa, Leptochloa fusca and Sporobolus marginatus at ICAR- Central Soil Salinity Research Institute, Karnal, Haryana during 2016 ...

The effect of salt stress on yield and accumulation of some minerals in two salt-tolerant and susceptible onion cultivars [PDF]
Desert, 2021 Salt stress is a major agro-environmental constraint on crop productivity. In this study, the effect of different levels of salinity stress (0,25,50,75, and 100mM NaCl) on the accumulation of some ions in two salt-tolerant and susceptible onion cultivars

Effects of Low and Moderate Salinity on Zinnia marylandica [PDF]
Journal of Plant Production, 2023 Soil and water salinity are considered among the main abiotic constraints especially in arid and semi-arid regions where saline groundwater is often used for crop irrigation since surface water is not easily available.

Genetic Diversity and Synergistic Modulation of Salinity Tolerance Genes in Aegilops tauschii Coss
Plants, 2021 Aegilops tauschii Coss. (2n = 2x = 14, DD) is a problematic weed and a rich source of genetic material for wheat crop improvement programs. We used physiological traits (plant height, dry weight biomass, Na+ and K+ concentration) and 14 microsatellite ...

Effect of Saline Irrigation on Accumulation of Na+, K+, Ca2+, and Mg2+ Ions in Rice Plants
Agriculture, 2018 Salinity is an abiotic stress that curtails rice production in many parts of the world. Although Koshihikari and Nikomaru are high-yielding japonica rice cultivars, their salinity-tolerance levels are not well known.

Bread Wheat With High Salinity and Sodicity Tolerance
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 Soil salinity and sodicity are major constraints to global cereal production, but breeding for tolerance has been slow. Narrow gene pools, over-emphasis on the sodium (Na+) exclusion mechanism, little attention to osmotic stress/tissue tolerance ...
