Salinity-induced limits to Mangrove canopy height and diversity [PDF]
Mangrove canopy height is a key metric to assess tidal forests' resilience in the face of climate change. In terrestrial forests, tree height is primarily determined by water availability, plant hydraulic design, and disturbance regime. However, the role of water stress remains elusive in tidal environments, where saturated soils are prevalent, and ...

IntroductionSalinity and droughts are severe abiotic stress factors that limit plant growth and development. However, the differences and similarities of non-structural carbohydrates (NSCs) responses patterns of trees under the two stress conditions ...

The mechanisms of hot salt stress corrosion cracking in titanium alloy Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr-6Mo [PDF]
Hot salt stress corrosion cracking in Ti 6246 alloy has been investigated to elucidate the chemical mechanisms that occur. Cracking was found to initiate beneath salt particles in the presence of oxidation. The observed transgranular fracture was suspected to be due to hydrogen charging; XRD and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy detected

Damage in porous media due to salt crystallization [PDF]
We investigate the origins of salt damage in sandstones for the two most common salts: sodium chloride and sulfate. The results show that the observed difference in damage between the two salts is directly related to the kinetics of crystallization and the interfacial properties of the salt solutions and crystals with respect to the stone. We show that,

Background Moderate salt stress, which often occurs in most saline agriculture land, suppresses crop growth and reduces crop yield. Rice, as an important food crop, is sensitive to salt stress and rice genotypes differ in their tolerance to salt stress ...

Salt stress induces endoplasmic reticulum stress-responsive genes in a grapevine rootstock.
Grapevines, although adapted to occasional drought or salt stress, are relatively sensitive to growth- and yield-limiting salinity stress. To understand the molecular mechanisms of salt tolerance and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and identify genes ...

Salt stress under the scalpel – dissecting the genetics of salt tolerance [PDF]
SummarySalt stress limits the productivity of crops grown under saline conditions, leading to substantial losses of yield in saline soils and under brackish and saline irrigation. Salt tolerant crops could alleviate these losses while both increasing irrigation opportunities and reducing agricultural demands on dwindling freshwater resources.

Numerical modeling of stress perturbations caused by geometric changes of salt bodies
We simulated the stress changes around a salt basin using a static salt structure model under compressive stress background to investigate the stress perturbation caused by different salt body shapes and amplitudes.

Identification of Metabolites and Transcripts Involved in Salt Stress and Recovery in Peanut
HIGHLIGHTSMetabolites and transcripts related to plant physiology in salt stress conditions, especially to the recovery process were disclosed in peanut.Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is considered as a moderately salt-sensitive species and thus soil ...
