Abstract Cation/H+ (NHX-type) antiporters are important regulators of intracellular ion
homeostasis and are critical for cell expansion and plant stress acclimation. In Arabidopsis …

Potassium (K+) is an essential nutrient and the most abundant cation in plant cells. Plants
have a wide variety of transport systems for K+ acquisition, catalyzing K+ uptake across a …

Salinity is one of the major limitations for food production worldwide. Improvement of plant
salt-stress tolerance using plant-growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) has arisen as a …

Potassium (K) is the most abundant inorganic cation in plants. It is required for the activation
of many enzymes, as a cellular osmoticum for rapidly expanding cells, and as a counter …

Ion transport is the fundamental factor determining salinity tolerance in plants. The Review
starts from differences in ion transport between salt tolerant halophytes and salt-sensitive …

Abiotic stresses such as salinity, drought, and flooding severely limit food and fibre
production and result in penalties of in excess of US $100 billion per annum to the …

Nitrogen (N) and potassium (K) are the two most abundantly acquired mineral elements by
plants, and their acquisition pathways interact in complex ways. Here, we review pivotal …

The productivity of agricultural produce is fairly dependent on the availability of nutrients and
efficient use. Magnesium (Mg2+) is an essential macronutrient of living cells and is the …

Recent work has made progress in relating the size of stomata to stomatal functioning and,
in particular, the speed of opening and closing and its implications. Calculations of the …

Achieving salt-tolerance is highly desirable in today's agricultural context. Apart from
developing salt-tolerant cultivars, possibility lies with management options, which can …
