Reduction of photosynthetic sensitivity in response to abiotic stress in tomato is mediated by a new generation plant activator [PDF]
Background: Yield losses as a result of abiotic stress factors present a significant challenge for the future of global food production. While breeding technologies provide potential to combat negative stress-mediated outcomes over time, interventions ...

Plants’ Response Mechanisms to Salinity Stress
Soil salinization is a severe abiotic stress that negatively affects plant growth and development, leading to physiological abnormalities and ultimately threatening global food security. The condition arises from excessive salt accumulation in the soil, primarily due to anthropogenic activities such as irrigation, improper land uses, and ...

Turfgrass Salinity Stress and Tolerance—A Review
Turfgrasses are ground cover plants with intensive fibrous roots to encounter different edaphic stresses. The major edaphic stressors of turfgrasses often include soil salinity, drought, flooding, acidity, soil compaction by heavy traffic, unbalanced soil nutrients, heavy metals, and soil pollutants, as well as many other unfavorable soil conditions ...

Microbial amelioration of crop salinity stress [PDF]
The use of soil and irrigation water with a high content of soluble salts is a major limiting factor for crop productivity in the semi-arid areas of the world. While important physiological insights about the mechanisms of salt tolerance in plants have been gained, the transfer of such knowledge into crop improvement has been limited.

Salinity Stress Tolerance in Plants
Soil salinization negatively impacts plant development and induces land degradation, thus affecting biodiversity, water quality, crop production, farmers’ well-being, and the economic situation in the affected region. Plant germination, growth, and productivity are vital processes impaired by salinity stress; thus, it is considered a serious threat to ...

The Transcriptional Response of Yeast to Saline Stress [PDF]
Adaptation to changes in extracellular salinity is a critical event for cell survival. Genome-wide DNA chip analysis has been used to analyze the transcriptional response of yeast cells to saline stress. About 7% of the genes encoded in the yeast genome are induced more than 5-fold after a mild and brief saline shock (0.4 m NaCl, 10 min). Interestingly,

An integrated multidisciplinary approach to study the effects of copper and osmotic stress in fish [PDF]
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel UniversitySince many estuarine zones are impacted by copper contamination, there is an on-going effort to develop Biotic Ligand Models (BLMs) predicting copper ...

Hormonal changes during salinity-induced leaf senescence in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) [PDF]
Leaf senescence is one of the most limiting factors to plant productivity under salinity. Both the accumulation of specific toxic ions (e.g. Na+) and changes in leaf hormone relations are involved in the regulation of this process. Tomato plants (Solanum
