Salt stress is a major environmental stress that affects plant growth and development. Plants
are sessile and thus have to develop suitable mechanisms to adapt to high-salt …

Potassium (K) is an essential element for the growth and development of plants; however, its
scarcity or excessive level leads to distortion of numerous functions in plants. It takes part in …

Abstract Nitrogen (N), potassium (K), and phosphorus (P) are essential macronutrients for
plant growth and development, and their availability affects crop yield. Compared with N, the …

Among the plant nutrients, potassium (K) is one of the vital elements required for plant
growth and physiology. Potassium is not only a constituent of the plant structure but it also …

Soil salinization is an essential environmental stressor, threating agricultural yield and
ecological security worldwide. Saline soils accumulate excessive soluble salts which are …

Modern agriculture relies on mineral fertilization. Unlike other major macronutrients,
potassium (K+) is not incorporated into organic matter but remains as soluble ion in the cell …

Background Salinity is a global issue threatening agricultural production systems across the
globe. While the major focus of plant salinity stress tolerance research has been on sodium …

Soil salinization inhibits plant growth and seriously restricts food security and agricultural
development. Excessive salt can cause ionic stress, osmotic stress, and ultimately oxidative …

In this review we summarize factors determining the plant availability of soil potassium (K),
the role of K in crop yield formation and product quality, and the dependence of crop stress …

Plant beneficial rhizospheric microorganisms (PBRMs) are rhizospheric microbes that are
able to colonize rhizosphere and to improve plant growth, development and nutrient use …
