Stress from crystallization of salt
Cement and Concrete Research, 2004The thermodynamic and kinetic factors influencing crystallization pressure are reviewed for cases including capillary rise and evaporation, cyclic wetting and drying, and hydration of cement. Under equilibrium conditions, where the crystal is surrounded by a film of solution, high stresses are expected only in small pores, but when that film is ...

Botanical Gazette, 1972
Salt cedar (Tamarix pentandra Pall.) cladophylls developed water potentials of -5 bars by early July and -20 bars by late September while the plants grew in a deep sand with a high water table. Plant water utilization closely paralleled pan evaporation and solar radiation.

Photosynthesis in Salt-Stressed Grapevines
Functional Plant Biology, 1977Rooted cuttings of grapevine (Vitis vinifera L. cv. Sultana syn. Thompson Seedless) were grown in sand culture irrigated with nutrient solution containing 1-125 mM NaCl. The effect of salinity on vine growth and photosynthesis is described. Salinity led to reduced growth where foliar symptoms of salt toxicity were absent.

Phosphorus translocation in salt-stressed cotton
Physiologia Plantarum, 1991The effect of salinity on plants has usually been studied at high inorganic P concentration ([Pi]) in the nutrient solution, and salinity × Pi interactions have been examined at much higher [Pi] than found in soil solutions. Short‐term 32Pi experiments were carried out to study the effect of salinity (150 mM NaCl) on phosphorus translocation in cotton ...

Stress, Endogenous Opioids and Salt Intake
Appetite, 1984The effect of stress on NaCl intake was examined in mice given a choice of water and 1.5% NaCl to drink. Immobilization of mice for 15-min and 24-h food deprivation resulted in a 2.5- and 5-fold increases in NaCl intake, respectively, without affecting water intake.

Plant Responses to Salt Stress
Science Signaling, 2008Detrimental levels of salt can result when agriculture is extended to marginal lands or relies on irrigation. Using the Arabidopsis root tip, Dinneny et al . (see the Perspective by Voesenek and Pierik) examined how different cells within a tissue respond to the physiological stresses due to ...

The effects of stress on salt and water balance
Baillière's Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 1987The effect of 'stress' on salt and water balance is largely determined by intrinsic renal factors supported by a series of inter-related neuro-humoral mechanisms which serve to enhance salt and water reabsorption and to maintain arterial pressure.

Drought and Salt Stress in Cereals
2015Abiotic stresses, such as salinity, drought, extreme temperatures, chemical toxicity and oxidative stress represent a grave threat to agriculture dramatically affecting the crop production around the world. Climate changes are projected to have a significant impact on temperature and precipitation profiles increasing the incidence and severity of ...
