Salt stress caused by sodic soils is an important constraint that impacts the production of crucial solanaceous vegetable crops globally. Halotolerant poly-extremophiles rhizobacteria can inhabit hostile environments like salinity, drought, etc. The present study was aimed to design a halotolerant micro-formulation using highly salt-tolerant bacterial strains previously isolated from rice and w...

Traditional mapping of salt affected soils (SAS) is very costly and cannot precisely depict the space–time dynamics soil salts over landscapes. Therefore, we tested capacity Landsat 8 Operational Land Imager (OLI) data to retrieve salinity sodicity during wet dry seasons in an arid landscape. Seventy geo-referenced samples (0–30 cm) were collected March (wet period) September be analyzed for pH...

content (Keren et al., 1985). The range of tolerance for both sensitive and tolerant plants to soil solution This work considered the aqueous speciation of B between a soil B concentration is 0.028 to 1.39 mmol L 1. Plants are solution containing B and the tetrahedral surface B species (SH3 BOH 4 during drying of the soil. The aqueous B species were boric not sensitive to adsorbed B. Adsorption...

Soil salinity/sodicity is the major problem in irrigated and rain-fed areas are a continuous threat for sustainability of agricultural production. The presence salt affected soils has been identified as process land degradation greatest cause declining productivity by causing detrimental effect on biological, physical chemical properties soil system. Therefore, objective this topic to review im...
