C:N:P Stoichiometry and Leaf Traits of Halophytes in an Arid Saline Environment, Northwest China
Salinization is an important and increasingly prevalent issue which has broad and profound effects on plant survival and distribution pattern. To understand the patterns and potential drivers of leaf traits in saline environments, we determined the soil properties, leaf morphological traits (specific leaf area, SLA, and leaf dry matter content, LDMC), leaf chemical traits (leaf carbon, C, nitro...
متن کاملHalophytes for the treatment of saline aquaculture effluent
Ž . We determined the feasibility of using salt-tolerant plants halophytes as biofilters to remove nutrients from saline aquaculture wastewater. Suaeda esteroa, Salicornia bigeloÕii and Atriplex Ž . barclayana Chenopodiaceae , species with potential as forage and oil seed crops, were grown in Ž . sand in draining containers lysimeters in a greenhouse experiment. They were irrigated to meet evap...
متن کاملPotential Use of Halophytes to Remediate Saline Soils
Salinity is one of the rising problems causing tremendous yield losses in many regions of the world especially in arid and semiarid regions. To maximize crop productivity, these areas should be brought under utilization where there are options for removing salinity or using the salt-tolerant crops. Use of salt-tolerant crops does not remove the salt and hence halophytes that have capacity to ac...
متن کاملIntroduction to the Special Issue: Halophytes in a changing world
Climate change will bring about rising sea levels and increasing drought, both of which will contribute to increasing salinization in many regions of the world. There will be consequent effects on our crops, which cannot withstand significant salinization. This Special Issue looks at the roles that can be played by halophytes, extremophiles that do tolerate salinities toxic to most plants. In a...
متن کاملREVIEW: PART OF A SPECIAL ISSUE ON HALOPHYTES AND SALINE ADAPTATIONS Comparative study of the aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) gene superfamily in the glycophyte Arabidopsis thaliana and Eutrema halophytes
†Background and Aims Stresses such as drought or salinity induce the generation of reactive oxygen species, which subsequently cause excessive accumulation of aldehydes in plant cells. Aldehyde dehydrogenases (ALDHs) are considered as ‘aldehyde scavengers’ to eliminate toxic aldehydes caused by oxidative stress. The completion of the genome sequencing projects of the halophytes Eutrema parvulum...
