Effect of salinity on seed oil content and fatty acid composition of safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) genotypes (2012, background): “If global food production is to be maintained, it seems reasonable to predict that enhancement of salt tolerance of crops will be increasingly important to many plant breeding programs (Arzani, 2008).”
Developing stress tolerant plants through in vitro selection—An overview of the recent progress (2011, background): “However, these methods can only discriminate between genotypes tolerating low or moderate salinities (Munns and James, 2003; Arzani, 2008).”
Effect of salt stress on growth, stomatal resistance, proline and chlorophyll concentrations on maize plant. (2009, unknown): “photosynthesis rates are usually lower in plants exposed to salinity and especially to NaCI (Ashraf and Harris, 2004; Parida and Das, 2005), and this would furthermore lead to restriction in water availability and imbalance in nutrient uptake by plants (Pessarakli and Tucker, 1988; Katerji et al., 2”
Biochemical, physiological and growth changes in response to salinity in callus cultures of Sesuvium portulacastrum L. (2010, background): “whole plant is also exhibited in callus tissue (Tonon et al. 2004; Arzani 2008 ); however, few in vitro culture systems have been established from mangrove plants for studying their salt tolerance at the cellular level (Cherian and Reddy 2003; Amor et al. 2005; Zhao et al. 2009).”
Grafting Tomato as a Tool to Improve Salt Tolerance (2020, background): “It is estimated that about 3 ha of productive land per minute is lost due to salinity [3].”
Plasma membrane permeability as an indicator of salt tolerance in plants (2013, background): “The deleterious effects of salinity on plant growth are associated with 1) low osmotic potential of soil solution, 2) nutritional imbalance (Attia et al. 2011), 3) specific ion effect (Munns and Tester 2008), or 4) a combination of these factors (Arzani 2008).”
Smart Engineering of Genetic Resources for Enhanced Salinity Tolerance in Crop Plants (2016, background): “For a quantitative trait, such as salinity tolerance, it is plausible to dissect tolerance mechanisms into components, rather than overall plant tolerance (Arzani, 2008).”
