Salinity is an ever-present major constraint and a major threat to legume crops, particularly
in areas with irrigated agriculture. Legumes demonstrate high sensitivity, especially during …

Sugar transport and distribution have a direct impact on the growth and development of
plants. Many sugars significantly influence salt stress response. The sensing of salt stress …

The treated seeds (control, KNO3 and hydropriming) of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.)
cultivar Sanbro were evaluated at germination and seedling growth for tolerance to salt …

Due to increasing salinity problems, in this experiment four vegetables species were treated
with different concentration of salt solution to study salt effect. Results indicated that salinity …

When plants are grown under saline conditions, photosynthetic activity decreases leading to
reduced plant growth, leaf area, chlorophyll content and chlorophyll fluorescence. Seeds …

Soil salinity disrupts the physiological and biochemical processes of crop plants and
ultimately leads to compromising future food security. Sodium nitroprusside (SNP), a …

Salinization of soil is one of the main threats for the development and maintenance of
agricultural systems. Climate change will even increase soil salinity further. Soil salinity …

Safflower flowers (Carthamus tinctorius) contain many natural substances with a wide range
of economic uses. The most famous dye isolated from flower petals is hydroxysafflor A …

Salt stress is considered as one of the most common abiotic stresses reducing the
productivity and fruit quality of crop plants. The present study was carried out to assess the …

Salinity stress adversely affects root nodulation symbiotic relationships, and ultimately the
nitrogen fixation capacity and the growth and yield of leguminous plants. Improving growth …
