Piriformospora indica, a cultivable root endophyte with multiple biotechnological applications (2009, background): “Plant growth is greatly affected by drought stress and plants must adapt to this stress to survive (Xiong et al., 2002; Shinozaki et al., 2003; Chaves and Oliveira, 2004; Bartels and Sunkar, 2005; Denby and Gehring, 2005; Yamaguchi-Shinozaki and Shinozaki, 2006; Seki et al., 2003, 2007; Shinozaki an”
Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria reduce adverse effects of salinity and osmotic stress by regulating phytohormones and antioxidants in Cucumis sativus (2014, background): “Drought affects the turgor pressure and biomass production (Bartels & Sunkar 2005), although drought is more pervasive and devastating than salinity; however, plants’ responses to both is closely related (Hussain et al. 2008).”
Soil Salinity: Effect on Vegetable Crop Growth. Management Practices to Prevent and Mitigate Soil Salinization (2017, background): “It is estimated that, by 2050, 50% of the world’s arable land will be affected by salinity [5].”
Positive regulatory role of strigolactone in plant responses to drought and salt stress (2013, background): “The results indicate that the down-regulation of many stressand/or ABA-inducible genes encoding a wide range of stressrelated regulatory and functional proteins (21, 22) may be responsible for the decreased levels of stress tolerance observed in the max mutant plants.”
