Going beyond nutrition: regulation of potassium homoeostasis as a common denominator of plant adaptive responses to environment.
TLDR
It appears that K(+) is not just the essential nutrient required to support optimal plant growth and yield but is also an important signaling agent mediating a wide range of plant adaptive responses to environment.About:

Plant Salinity Stress: Many Unanswered Questions Remain.
TL;DR: This review analyzes the physiological, biochemical, and molecular aspects of Na+ and Cl− uptake, sequestration, and transport associated with salinity, and discusses the role and importance of symplastic versus apoplastic pathways for ion uptake and the multiple roles of K+ in plant salinity stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Role of Na+ and K+ Transporters in Salt Stress Adaptation in Glycophytes.
TL;DR: It turns out that these transporters and channels are equally important for the adaptation of glycophytes as they are for halophytes, but differential gene expression, structural differences in the proteins and post-translational modifications account for the differences in tolerance between the two groups.

New Insights on Plant Salt Tolerance Mechanisms and Their Potential Use for Breeding.
TL;DR: Understanding the overall control of Na+ accumulation and functional studies of genes involved in transport processes, will provide a new opportunity to improve the salinity tolerance of plants relevant to food security in arid regions.

Plant salt tolerance
TL;DR: A recently discovered halophytic plant species, Thellungiella halophila, now promises to help in the detection of new tolerance determinants and operating pathways in a model system that is not limited to Arabidopsis traits or ecotype variations.

A Renaissance of Elicitors: Perception of Microbe-Associated Molecular Patterns and Danger Signals by Pattern-Recognition Receptors
Thomas Boller,Georg Felix +1 more
TL;DR: Current evidence indicates that MAMPs, DAMPs, and effectors are all perceived as danger signals and induce a stereotypic defense response, and the importance of MAMP/PRR signaling for plant immunity is highlighted.
