Tracking Sodium Inside the Plant: Hydraulic Adjustments to Deal With Salinity

open access: yesJournal of Agronomy and Crop Science, Volume 212, Issue 6, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Sorghum is a crop that has become more relevant in recent years due to its uses and properties (biofuel, gluten‐free flour) as well as its versatility to grow in unfavourable environmental conditions. Salinity is one of the main abiotic stresses affecting crop production and yield worldwide.

Rice Productivity in Saline–Alkaline Soils: Constraints, Microbiome‐Mediated Regulation and Management Strategies

open access: yesJournal of Agronomy and Crop Science, Volume 212, Issue 6, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Saline–alkaline soils are widespread and represent a particularly restrictive environment for rice, especially in arid and semi‐arid regions. These soils commonly combine elevated salinity with high pH, sodium‐related soil constraints and bicarbonate/carbonate accumulation, resulting in severe physicochemical and nutritional limitations.

Biochar and K‐fertigation modulate stomatal behaviour, ion homeostasis and water use efficiency in waxy maize seedlings under salt stress

open access: yesJournal of Agronomy and Crop Science, Volume 212, Issue 6, November 2026.
Efficacy of wheat straw biochar in alleviating salt stress under K‐fertigation via improved photosynthesis, water use efficiency and ion homeostasis in waxy maize. ABSTRACT K‐fertigation and soil amendment could ameliorate the adverse effects of saline stress on C4 crop physiology and performance, yet the underlying mechanisms remained largely elusive.

Drought‐Induced Anatomical Compensation Stabilizes Gas Exchange in Sorghum

open access: yesJournal of Agronomy and Crop Science, Volume 212, Issue 6, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Drought limits carbon gain in crops, yet the functional role of bulliform cells in regulating gas exchange and water‐use efficiency remains unclear. Here, we tested whether natural variation in bulliform size alters carbon assimilation rate and whole‐leaf water‐use efficiency in Sorghum bicolor.

Root Plasticity and Hormonal Regulation Shape Alfalfa Cultivar Responses to Drought and Waterlogging

open access: yesJournal of Agronomy and Crop Science, Volume 212, Issue 6, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) is a globally strategic forage legume whose productivity is increasingly threatened by climatic variability, particularly recurrent drought and flooding events. Although both stresses disrupt plant water balance, they impose contrasting physiological constraints that require distinct adaptive strategies.
