Glycine betaine (GB) and proline are two major organic osmolytes that accumulate in a
variety of plant species in response to environmental stresses such as drought, salinity …

Various compatible solutes enable plants to tolerate abiotic stress, and glycinebetaine (GB)
is one of the most‐studied among such solutes. Early research on GB focused on the …

In many plants, free proline accumulates in response to the imposition of a wide range of
biotic and abiotic stresses. Controversy has surrounded the extent to which this shift in …

Halophytes are plants adapted to live in a saline environment, be it seawater, a salt-water
marsh, or a salt-desert; nearly all are angiosperms. The growth of dicotyledonous …

Soil salinity is a major environmental constraint to crop productivity worldwide. The
“biological” approach to this problem focuses on the management, exploitation, or …

Compatible osmolytes are potent osmoprotectants that play a role in counteracting the
effects of osmotic stress. Proline (Pro) is one of the most common compatible osmolytes in …

Salinity adversely affects plant growth and development. Halotolerant plant-growth-
promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) alleviate salt stress and help plants to maintain better …

The accumulation of compatible solutes is often regarded as a basic strategy for the
protection and survival of plants under abiotic stress conditions, including both salinity and …

Durum wheat (Triticum durum cv. Gediz-75) and bread wheat (Triticum aestivum cv. Izmir-
85) were grown in a complete nutrient solution in a growth room to investigate effect of …

The response of 49 pea cultivars with different drought tolerance was studied. The tolerance
to stress was determined according to the grain yield or the harvest index in rainfed farming …
