Crop productivity and adaptation to climate change in Pakistan (2018, background): “Qadir et al. (2014), however, highlight the unsustainability of water management in the Indus Basin by studying the impacts of soil salinity on crop yields and argue that agricultural productivity losses due to salt-induced land degradation are a growing concern across in Pakistan.”
Regulation of Plant Responses to Salt Stress (2021, background): “Approximately 20% of the world’s irrigated agricultural lands are adversely affected by soil salinization [3].”
Salicylic acid in plant salinity stress signalling and tolerance (2015, background): “Salinity is one of the major abiotic stresses, affecting 7 % of the world’s total land area (Munns 2005) and imposing over $27Bln penalties to agricultural sector every year (Qadir et al. 2014).”
