Key message The potential of seed priming is still not fully exploited. Our limited knowledge
of the molecular dynamics of seed pre-germinative metabolism is the main hindrance to …

About 20% of all irrigated land is adversely affected by salinity hazards and therefore
understanding plant defense mechanisms against salinity will have great impact on plant …

Plants can develop stress memory as a response to various abiotic stresses, but the
underlying mechanisms are not yet fully understood. Most of the knowledge concerning the …

Background: Water deficit and salinity are common conditions in arid agro-ecosystems.
Hypothesis: Salinty increases the hydric stress effect on the yield and gel quality of Aloe …

Main conclusion Greening was partially (in 300 mM NaCl, CaCl2, 600 mM KNO3 or KCl) or
fully inhibited (in 600 mM NaCl, NaNO3 or NaCl: KCl) by the ionic and not the osmotic …

This experiment was conducted to investigate the role of priming in regulation of growth and
photosynthesis in salt-acclimated canola plants. Salt stress caused a significant decrease in …

Irrigation with brackish water reduces watermelon yield in the Brazilian semiarid region,
requiring the establishment of management strategies that reduce the negative impacts …

Due to the fast climate change, salt stress and water stress are the main abiotic stresses that
are limiting the agricultural production and threatening the food security in the world. Salt …

Plants can develop stress memory as a response to various abiotic stresses, but the
underlying mechanisms are not yet fully understood. Most of the knowledge concerning the …

Saline soil is a major problem for rice cultivation in many areas of Thailand. In addition, the
saline soil areas have different levels of salinity, resulting in rice being unable to grow in …
