Potential 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 کاملC: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 کاملHow plants survive glyphosate
Glyphosate is the most widely used herbicide in the world for several reasons, including: 1) high level of effectiveness, 2) flexibility in application, 3) large margin of crop safety in glyphosate resistant crops, and 4) safety to applicators and the environment. Glyphosate was used for more than 20 years before weeds developed resistance to the chemical. This relative low risk of glyphosate r...
متن کاملPhytomelatonin: assisting plants to survive and thrive.
This review summarizes the advances that have been made in terms of the identified functions of melatonin in plants. Melatonin is an endogenously-produced molecule in all plant species that have been investigated. Its concentration in plant organs varies in different tissues, e.g., roots versus leaves, and with their developmental stage. As in animals, the pathway of melatonin synthesis in plan...
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...
