Saltwater aquaponics is a sustainable alternative system for food production. The success of this largely depends on the selection both fish and plant species, which several features criteria must be considered. This paper aims to identify most suitable species saltwater by using multi-criteria decision-making method also based current literature. One simple model that contained one root criter...

BACKGROUND Soil salinity is a major abiotic stress that limits agriculture productivity worldwide. Salicornia europaea is well adapted to extreme saline environments with more than 1,000 mM NaCl in the soil, so it could serve as an important model species for studying halophilic mechanisms in euhalophytes. To obtain insights into the molecular basis of salt tolerance, we present here the first ...

The halophyte plant species Salicornia europaea and ramosissima were investigated for their potential to serve as a substrate biogas production. was cultivated in hydroponic systems under varying salt concentrations (0, 10, 20, 30 g/L NaCl), while S. grown greenhouse farming with aquaculture effluent irrigation. biomethane of the two feedstocks determined through batch experiments, correlations...

Three types of phenolic acids (caffeic, ferulic, and chlorogenic acid) were identified quantified in two halophytic plants (Salicornia bigelovii Salicornia sinus-persica). Analysis was performed using a high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) system via the standard addition method. The matrix effect (ME), recovery efficiency (RE), process (PE) parameters ev...

Salicornia bigelovii Torr. has been consumed not only as a popular kind of vegetable, but also as a medicinal plant to treat hypertension, cephalalgia, scurvy and cancer. The present study was designed to investigate its chemical components and cytotoxic activity. A new noroleanane-type triterpene saponin, bigelovii C (1), was separated and purified from Salicornia bigelovii Torr., along with f...

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...

Cactodera salina n. sp. (Heteroderinae) is described from roots of the estuary plant Salicornia bigelovii (Chenopodiaceae), in Puerto Pefiasco, Sonora, Mexico, at the northern tip of the Sea of Cortez. The halophyte host is grown experimentally for oilseed in plots flooded daily with seawater. Infected plants appear to be adversely affected by C. salina relative to plants in noninfested plots. ...
