Salt Tolerance Mechanisms of Plants
Annual Review of Plant Biology, 2020 Crop loss due to soil salinization is an increasing threat to agriculture worldwide. This review provides an overview of cellular and physiological mechanisms in plant responses to salt. We place cellular responses in a time- and tissue-dependent context in order to link them to observed phases in growth rate that occur in response to stress.

Mechanisms of Salt Tolerance and Molecular Breeding of Salt-Tolerant Ornamental Plants
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 As the area of salinized soils increases, and freshwater becomes more scarcer worldwide, an urgent measure for agricultural production is to use salinized land and conserve freshwater resources. Ornamental flowering plants, such as carnations, roses, chrysanthemums, and gerberas, are found around the world and have high economic, ornamental, ecological,
