in the Mediterranean Coastal North of Egypt Hediat M.H. Salama and Akram A.H. Ali Botany Department, Faculty of Science, Zagazig University, Zagazig, Egypt. Salt marshes are widely distributed in the north western part of Egypt with their own distinct vegetation. Of these Zygophyllum album, Suaeda pruinosa, Arthrocnemum glaucum, Halocnemum strobilaceum (succulent halophytes) and Limoniastrum mo...

The soil system has been frequently overlooked during plant reintroduction planning and practice since working with soils roots can be difficult, particularly in saline environments. Coastal environments are major contributors to regional global biodiversity an important source of endemic species. However, various species decline or considered threatened, halophytes (salt tolerant) due negative...

Salinity, one of the major environmental constraints, threatens soil health and consequently agricultural productivity worldwide. Acacia auriculiformis, being a halophyte, offers diverse benefits against soil salinity; however, the defense mechanisms underlying salt-tolerant capacity in A. auriculiformis are still elusive. In this study, we aimed to elucidate mechanisms regulating the adaptabil...

production of halophyte plants with saline water and soil and feeding them to livestock is one of the most sustainable methods of conservation in desert ecosystem regions. kochia is a high salt resistant plant that can widely use as forage for livestock in arid ecosystems with lack of appropriate water and soil resources. in order to investigate potential of forage production of five different ...

Halocnemum strobilaceum is a halophyte present in the humid and arid bioclimatic regions of Egypt. The current study aimed at UPLC/PDA/ESI-MSn qualitative chemical profiling of the phytoconstituents underlining both antioxidant and cytotoxic activities of the bio-active fraction in comparison with the other fractions. It resulted in detection of several related compounds to prenylated flavonol ...

Understanding the mechanisms used by halophytic members of the Poaceae to cope with salt stress will contribute to the knowledge necessary to genetically engineer salt-tolerant crops. In this study, we identified a genotype of Sporobolus virginicus, a halophytic turf grass collected in Japan, and investigated its growth rate, ion concentration and secretion, and proline concentration in compari...
