Global population growth poses a threat to food security in an era of increased ecosystem
degradation, climate change, soil erosion, and biodiversity loss. In this context, harnessing …

Soil salinity is one of the most serious threats to plant growth and productivity. Due to global
climate change, burgeoning population and shrinking arable land, there is an urgent need to …

Potassium, mostly as a cation (K+), together with calcium (Ca2+) are the most abundant
inorganic chemicals in plant cellular media, but they are rarely discussed. K+ is not a …

Potassium (K) is an integral part of plant nutrition, playing essential roles in plant growth and
development. Despite its abundance in soils, the limitedly available form of K ion (K+) for …

Climate change exerts adverse effects on crop production. Plant researchers have therefore
focused on the identification of solutions that minimize the negative impacts of climate …

Main conclusion There is a need to integrate conceptual framework based on the current
understanding of salt stress responses with different approaches for manipulating and …

Abstract Under low-potassium (K+) stress, a Ca2+ signaling network consisting of
calcineurin B-like proteins (CBLs) and CBL-interacting kinases (CIPKs) play essential roles …

The human population is increasing by 0.96% annually and is estimated to reach from 7.3 to
9 billion in 2050 and 11 billion in 2100. The world's agriculture is under pressure to produce …

To complete their life cycles, plants require several minerals that are found in soil. Plant
growth and development can be affected by nutrient shortages or high nutrient availability …

K (K) is of paramount importance for apple (Malus× domestica Borkh.), not only for tree
growth and development but also for the size and quality of fruit yield. The apple plant's …
