Effects of salt and alkali stresses on germination, growth, photosynthesis and ion accumulation in alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) (2010, background): “Although plant seedlings can develop in solutions with low concentrations of salts, root elongation may be greatly retarded by high salinity (Malcolm et al. 2003; Qu et al. 2008).”
THE ROLE OF CALCIUM IN PLANTS' SALT TOLERANCE (2012, background): “Reduction in shoot growth has been implicated as the first observable response of glycophytes to increasing root zone salinity and the most significant damaging effect of longterm (weeks and months) exposure to salinity (Malcolm et al, 2003 ).”
Improving salinity tolerance in crop plants: a biotechnological view (2008, background): “For instance, halophytes are no more salt tolerant than glycophytes at the germination stage but quickly establish their superior tolerance through subsequent hypocotyl elongation and seedling development (Malcolm et al. 2003).”
Screening methods for salinity tolerance: a case study with tetraploid wheat (2003, background): “For example, halophytes are no more salt tolerant than glycophytes at germination, although they quickly show their superior tolerance at the start of hypocotyl elongation (Malcolm et al., 2003).”
