Plant Responses to Simultaneous Biotic and Abiotic Stress: Molecular Mechanisms (2014, background): “The resulting growth reductions can reach >50% in most plant species [6].”
Physiological interventions in breeding for adaptation to abiotic stress (2007, background): “…the different physiological adaptations of crops to abiotic stress has been ongoing for decades (e.g., Fischer and Turner 1978; Blum 1988; Boyer 1996; Bruce et al. 2002), and molecular technologies have added a new dimension to the research (Xiong et al. 2002; Chaves et al. 2003; Wang et al. 2003).”
Fungal endophytes: diversity and functional roles. (2009, background): “During pathogenic interactions both the hosts and the pathogens appear to produce ROS, which if produced by the plant may act to limit pathogen colonization and if produced by the pathogen may increase virulence (see Rouhier & Jacquot, 2008).”
Proteome profile and functional classification of proteins in Arabidopsis thaliana (Landsberg erecta) mature pollen (2006, background): “Many LEA proteins are induced by cold or osmotic stress, or by exogenous ABA, or are expressed constitutively (Wang et al. 2003).”
Influence of Silver Nano-particles on the Salt Resistance of Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) during Germination (2016, background): “Molecular control mechanisms for salt stress tolerance depend on the regulation of the expression of certain stress genes (Wang et al., 2003).”
Developing stress tolerant plants through in vitro selection—An overview of the recent progress (2011, background): “Moreover, it has been predicted that increasing salinization in agricultural fields will reduce the land available for cultivation by 30% within the next 25 years, and up to 50% by the year 2050 (Wang et al., 2003).”
Plant physiological responses to UV-B radiation - (2012, background): “Abiotic stresses are serious threats to agriculture and result in the deterioration of the environment and of crop loss worldwide, reducing average yields for most major crop plants by more than 50% (Wang et al., 2003).”
Endophytic bacteria (Sphingomonas sp. LK11) and gibberellin can improve Solanum lycopersicum growth and oxidative stress under salinity (2015, background): “Previously, such negative and harmful effects were also reported by Wang et al. (2003), Hasegawa et al. (2000), Munns and Tester (2008), Khan et al. (2011, 2012, 2013), and Kang et al. (2014) in various crop plants such as rice, soybean, cucumber, pepper, etc.”
Soil salinity: A serious environmental issue and plant growth promoting bacteria as one of the tools for its alleviation (2014, background): “Several strategies have been developed in order to decrease the toxic effects caused by high salinity on plant growth, including plant genetic engineering (Wang et al., 2003), and recently the use of plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) (Dimkpa et al.”
Effects of Mild and Severe Drought Stress on Photosynthetic Efficiency in Tolerant and Susceptible Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) Genotypes (2014, background): “Drought stress is one of the most important abiotic factors which adversely affect growth, metabolism and yield of plants (Wang et al. 2003).”
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in alleviation of salt stress: a review. (2009, background): “, 2001) and increased salinization of arable land will result in to 50 % land loss by the middle of the 21st century (Wang et al., 2003).”
