To survive in a saline environment, halophytes have evolved many strategies to resist salt stress. The salt glands of recretohalophytes are exceptional features for directly secreting salt out of a plant. Knowledge of the pathway(s) of salt secretion in relation to the function of salt glands may help us to change the salt-tolerance of crops and to cultivate the extensive saline lands that are ...

the influence of salinity on the different polyamine fractions (free, conjugated, and bound) was compared in a natrophilic halophyte (beta vulgaris l. cv. ic) and a salt sensitive glycophyte (nicotiana rustica l. cv. basmas). low-level salinity (25 mm nacl) and high salinity (150 and 50 mm nacl for sugar beet and tobacco, respectively) were supplied in hydroponics. under low salinity shoot dry ...

tobacco is a salt-sensitive glycophyte crop species. in this work effect of silicone (si) supplementation (1 mm as na2sio3) was studied in nicotiana rustica l. cv. basmas grown hydroponically in growth chamber under control, low (25 mm) and high (75 mm) nacl concentration for two weeks. dry matter production of leaves was depressed by salinity level as low as 25 mm and higher salt concentration...

in order to study of the effect of priming and salinity on physiological and chemical characteristics of wheat(triticum aestivum l.), an experiment was carried out at the experimental farm of shiraz university. results showedthat primed plants significantly reduced its gas exchanges by accelerating senescence under a series of salt stress,which became more serious along with the increasing of s...

      Euphrates poplar (Populus euphratica Oliv.) is a woody species that is naturally distributed in the desert areas of some parts of Asia and Africa. Because of its outstanding features, it is a model plant to study environmental stress tolerance. This research was conducted from 2014 to 2016 in order to study the relationship between performance indices and ion concentrations. The cuttings ...

aim: there is conclusive scientific evidence of the adverse effect of excessive salt consumption on health, particularly on blood pressure, leading to cardiovascular disease (cvd), gastric cancer, osteoporosis, cataracts, kidney stones, diabetes and obesity. we investigated the determinants of salt consumption among the rural women in chabahar (iran) by applying the theory of planned behavior. ...

Salt stress is a complex trait that poses a grand challenge in developing new crops better adapted to saline environments. Some plants, called recretohalophytes, that have naturally evolved to secrete excess salts through salt glands, offer an underexplored genetic resource for examining how plant development, anatomy, and physiology integrate to prevent excess salt from building up to toxic le...

salt and sodium content in iranian breads maghroun m1 (bsc), sajjadi f2 (bsc), sarhanghpour mr3 (msc), nouri f4 (msc), shriatifar m5 (msc), mohammadifard n4* (msc), nilforoushzadeh f2 (bsc) 1 cardiac rehabilitation research center, cardiovascular research institute, isfahan university of medical science, isfahan, iran 2 hypertension research center, cardiovascular research institute, isfahan un...

This study investigated the impact of salt reduction on liking, salt taste perception, and use of table salt when consuming chicken stew in light of South Africa's new salt recommendations. In total, 432 South-African consumers (aged 35.2 ± 12.3 years) consumed a full portion of a chicken stew meal once at a central location. Four stock cube powders varying in salt content were used to prepare ...
