Salt-tolerant genes from halophytes are potential key players of salt tolerance in glycophytes (2016, background): “In most studies, salt tolerance genes from halophytes showed homology with those of glycophytes, but the salt tolerance mechanisms in halophytes might differ in various qualitative and quantitative respects ( Rozema and Schat, 2013; Cabot et al., 2014; Bose et al., 2015).”
REVIEW: PART OF A SPECIAL ISSUE ON HALOPHYTES AND SALINE ADAPTATIONS How can we take advantage of halophyte properties to cope with heavy metal toxicity in salt-affected areas? (2015, background): “Low NaCl doses frequently stimulate plant growth (Colmer and Flowers, 2008; Ruan et al., 2010; Rozema and Schat, 2013).”
Diversity, distribution and roles of osmoprotective compounds accumulated in halophytes under abiotic stress. (2015, background): “This approach has been long in its gestation (Rozema and Schat, 2013), and the crops generated are often novel (e.g. Salicornia species) and may not be those (e.g. cereals) familiar to most people.”
