The growth of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is very sensitive to salinity, with the most
susceptible genotypes dying in just 25 mm NaCl and resistant genotypes unlikely to survive …

Salinity is a significant abiotic stress that is steadily increasing in intensity globally. Salinity is
caused by various factors such as use of poor-quality water for irrigation, poor drainage …

Since the publication of the third edition of the Handbook of Plant and Crop Stress,
continuous discoveries in the fields of plant and crop environmental stresses and their …

Environmental stresses present major challenges in our quest to achieve sustainable food
production. The reactions of plants to environmental stresses are complex and involve many …

Grain quality and composition in food legumes are influenced by abiotic stresses. This
review discusses the influence of abiotic stresses on grain composition and quality in food …

Reproductive processes of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) are particularly sensitive to salinity.
We tested whether limited photoassimilate availability contributes to reproductive failure in …

Suaeda salsa is an annual herbaceous euhalophyte in the family Chenopodiaceae that
produces dimorphic seeds on the same plant under natural conditions. In order to determine …

Soil salinity is an increasing problem, including in regions of the world where chickpea is
cultivated. Salt sensitivity of chickpea was evaluated at both the vegetative and reproductive …

The reproductive phase in chickpea (C icer arietinum L.) is affected by salinity, but little is
known about the underlying cause. We investigated whether high concentrations of Na+ and …

Plants being sessile are continuously exposed to environmental stresses such as drought,
salinity, cold, and hot temperatures which present major challenges in achieving sustainable …
