Background: Halophytes possess efficient salt-tolerance mechanisms and can complete
their life cycles in naturally saline soils with NaCl contents exceeding 200 mM. While a …

Research into nanotechnology, an emerging science, has advanced in almost all fields of
technology. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the role of nano‐silicon dioxide …

One of the main environmental stresses that hinder crop development as well as yield is salt
stress, while the use of signal molecules such as calcium (Ca) has a substantial impact on …

The effect of salinity on germination, seedling emergence, seedling growth and ion
accumulation of a euhalophyte Suaeda salsa L. in an intertidal zone and on saline inland …

Soil salinity is a complex issue in which various anions and cations contribute to have a
general adverse effect on plant growth. In the present study, effects of salinity from various …

The role of the seed coat in adaptation of dimorphic seeds of the euhalophyte Suaeda salsa
to salinity was investigated during germination and early seedling growth. Black and brown …

The halophyte Salicornia europaea L. is a widely distributed salt-tolerant plant species that
produces numerous dimorphic seeds. We studied germination and recovery in dimorphic …

Abstract Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is a facultative halophyte which has taken
great importance in recent years due to the nutritional characteristics of its seed. In …

Soil salinization and alkalinization frequently co-occur in nature, but there is little information
on the interactive effects of salt and alkali stresses on plants. Seed germination and early …

Salinity is a devastating problem of arid and semi-arid climatic regions with uneven salt
accumulation which hinders growth and development of crops. The deleterious effects of …
