Advances in deciphering salt tolerance mechanism in maize
Crop Journal, 2023 Maize (Zea mays L.) is a global cereal crop whose demand is projected to double by 2050. Along with worsening of farmland salinization, salt stress has become a major environmental threat to the sustainability of maize production worldwide.

Plant salt-tolerance mechanisms [PDF]
Trends in Plant Science, 2014 Crop performance is severely affected by high salt concentrations in soils. To engineer more salt-tolerant plants it is crucial to unravel the key components of the plant salt-tolerance network. Here we review our understanding of the core salt-tolerance mechanisms in plants.

The Arabidopsis Book, 2002 Studying salt stress is an important means to the understanding of plant ion homeostasis and osmo-balance. Salt stress research also benefits agriculture because soil salinity significantly limits plant productivity on agricultural lands. Decades of physiological and molecular studies have generated a large body of literature regarding potential salt ...

Effect of salinity on Arabidopsis thaliana seed germination and acid phosphatase activity [PDF]
Archives of Biological Sciences, 2016 The salt tolerance of four accessions of Arabidopsis thaliana (COL (Columbia), NOK2, N1438 and N1380) was evaluated during germination by the capacity of seeds to germinate in the presence of 50 mM NaCl and to maintain adequate acid phosphatase ...

Salt Tolerance in Soybean [PDF]
Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, 2008 Abstract Soybean is an important cash crop and its productivity is significantly hampered by salt stress. High salt imposes negative impacts on growth, nodulation, agronomy traits, seed quality and quantity, and thus reduces the yield of soybean. To cope with salt stress, soybean has developed several tolerance mechanisms, including: (i) maintenance of
