Journal ArticleDOI

Bioengineering for Salinity Tolerance in Plants: State of the Art

TL;DR: A mechanistic view of different pathways is presented and the function of different genes in conferring salt tolerance by genetic engineering approach is emphasized and the details of successes achieved in developing salt tolerance in plants thus far are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improved Salinity Tolerance of Arachis hypogaea (L.) by the Interaction of Halotolerant Plant-Growth-Promoting Rhizobacteria

TL;DR: This study shows that PGPR play an important role in inducing salinity tolerance in plants and can be used to grow salt-sensitive crops in saline areas.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ascophyllum nodosum -Based Biostimulants: Sustainable Applications in Agriculture for the Stimulation of Plant Growth, Stress Tolerance, and Disease Management.

TL;DR: The information presented in this review depicts the multiple, beneficial effects of A. nodosum-based biostimulant extracts on plant growth and their defense responses and suggests new opportunities for further applications for marked benefits in production and quality in the agriculture and horticultural sectors.
Journal ArticleDOI

The SbSOS1 gene from the extreme halophyte Salicornia brachiata enhances Na(+) loading in xylem and confers salt tolerance in transgenic tobacco.

TL;DR: Overexpression of SbSOS1 in tobacco conferred a high degree of salt tolerance, enhanced plant growth and altered physiological and biochemical parameters in response to salt stress and it is suggested that this gene could be used to develop salt-tolerant transgenic crops.
Journal ArticleDOI

Carrageenans from Red Seaweeds As Promoters of Growth and Elicitors of Defense Response in Plants

TL;DR: The molecular mechanisms by which carrageenans and OCs mediate plant growth and plant defense responses are discussed, which improve plant growth by regulating various metabolic processes such as photosynthesis and ancillary pathways, cell division, purine and pyrimidine synthetic pathways as well as metabolic pathways involved in nitrogen and sulfur assimilation.
