Book ChapterDOI

Salinity Stress and Salt Tolerance

TL;DR: In this chapter, soil salinity, its effects on plants and tolerance mechanisms which permit the plants to withstand stress are discussed, with particular emphasis on ion homeostasis, Na+ exclusion and tissue tolerance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spatial and Temporal Profile of Glycine Betaine Accumulation in Plants Under Abiotic Stresses

TL;DR: The ability of plants to accumulate high levels of GB in young tissues under abiotic stress, is independent of nitrogen (N) availability and supports the view that plant N allocation is dictated primarily to supply and protect the growing tissues, even under N limitation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Durum wheat seedling responses to simultaneous high light and salinity involve a fine reconfiguration of amino acids and carbohydrate metabolism

TL;DR: The results showed that the complex interplay seen in durum wheat plants under salinity at LL was simplified: GB and antioxidants did not play a main role and the fine tuning of few specific primary metabolites remodeled metabolism and defense processes, playing a key role in the response to simultaneous stresses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Durum Wheat Roots Adapt to Salinity Remodeling the Cellular Content of Nitrogen Metabolites and Sucrose

TL;DR: Root cells adapt to salinity by sequestering sodium in the vacuole, as a cheap osmoticum, and showing a rearrangement of few nitrogen-containing metabolites and sucrose in the cytosol, thus providing plant viability even at low nitrate levels, which determines an increase of sap osmolality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trehalose 6-phosphate is involved in triggering axillary bud outgrowth in garden pea (Pisum sativum L.).

TL;DR: Data show that changes in bud Tre6P levels are correlated with initiation of bud outgrowth following decapitation, suggesting thatTre6P is involved in the release of bud dormancy by sucrose.
