Plant Science![Figure][1] CREDIT: MOLLER ET AL., PLANT CELL 21 , 10.1105/TPC.108.064568 (2009) Crops grown in salty soils yield less. Soils may be too salty naturally, as expanding land use presses hectares of marginal quality into agricultural service, and reasonable-quality lands can become too salty because of the effects of long-term irrigation.

Salt Toleration by Plants: Enhancement with Calcium
Science, 1969Bean plants subjected to a sodium chloride concentration about one-tenth that of seawater for 1 week suffered no damage if the calcium concentration of the nutrient solution was 1 millimole per liter or higher, but at lower calcium concentrations damage was severe and apparently due to a massive breakthrough of sodium into the leaves.

Opportunity and challenges of phenotyping plant salt tolerance
Trends in Plant Science, 2023Salinity is a key factor limiting agricultural production worldwide. Recent advances in field phenotyping have enabled the recording of the environmental history and dynamic response of plants by considering both genotype × environment (G×E) interactions and envirotyping.

How Calcium Enhances Plant Salt Tolerance
Science, 1998For their normal function, plants take up potassium salts and exclude sodium, a process that becomes more difficult in arid, salty soils. In his commentary, Epstein describes the physiological experiments that established that this selective accumulation depends on the presence of another salt, calcium, and how results in this issue by Liu

Breeding Salt-Tolerant Crop Plants
1980To date there has been a moderate amount of work done on the development of salt tolerant crop plants. Fuchs (1955) speculated that breeding for salt tolerance should be quite similar to breeding for drought tolerance. In the 1960’s, Dewey (1962) developed a program for breeding salt tolerant crested wheatgrass, Epstein and Jefferies (1964) wrote on ...

Membrane remodeling in plant salt tolerance
2021Soil salinisation is a serious land degradation issue worldwide, limiting the productivity of crops. Understanding the tolerance mechanisms employed by halophytes is of great value for ultimately identifying biomarkers for salt-tolerant crop breeding.

Plant Biotechnology. Genetic Engineering to Enhance Plant Salt Tolerance.
Journal of Bioscience and Bioengineering, 2002Plants not only provide food to humans and animals, but also provide a large number of non-food products of industrial and chemical importance. Moreover, they have the ability to purify the air, soil and water on the earth. Various trials to genetically improve the potential of plants are actively in progress.

Many plant, soil, water, and environmental factors interact to influence the salt tolerance of a plant. This chapter presents the salt-tolerance data as well as tolerance limits for boron, chloride, and sodium. Plant tolerance to salinity is usually appraised in one of three ways: the ability of a plant to survive on saline soils, the absolute plant ...

Drought and Salt Tolerance in Plants
Critical Reviews in Plant Sciences, 2005Agricultural productivity worldwide is subject to increasing environmental constraints, particularly to drought and salinity due to their high magnitude of impact and wide distribution. Traditional breeding programs trying to improve abiotic stress tolerance have had some success, but are limited by the multigenic nature of the trait.
