Comparative genomics reveals the molecular mechanism of salt adaptation for zoysiagrasses
BMC Plant Biology, 2022 Background Zoysiagrass (Zoysia spp.) is a warm-season turfgrass. It is widely used as turfgrasses throughout the world, offers good turf qualities, including salt tolerance, resistance to drought and heat.

Plant Salinity Stress: Many Unanswered Questions Remain
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 Salinity is a major threat to modern agriculture causing inhibition and impairment of crop growth and development. Here, we not only review recent advances in salinity stress research in plants but also revisit some basic perennial questions that still ...

Mitigating Soil Salinity Stress with Gypsum and Bio-Organic Amendments: A Review
Agronomy, 2021 Salinity impedes soil and crop productivity in over 900 million ha of arable lands worldwide due to the excessive accumulation of salt (NaCl). To utilize saline soils in agriculture, halophytes (salt-tolerant plants) are commonly cultivated.

Feasibility of different crop rotations for cultivation in salt affected soils
Acta Agriculturae Slovenica, 2019 Crop rotation can be used as an effective technique for managing salt-affected soils, however selection of suitable crop rotation at farmer field is very intricate decision which depends on expected net revenue, available resources and preserving the ...

Soil Salinity and Food Security in India
Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2020 India would require around 311 million tons of food grains (cereals and pulses) during 2030 to feed around 1.43 billion people, and the requirement expectedly would further increase to 350 million tons by 2050 when India's population would be around 1.8 ...
