Leaf thickness to predict plant water status

TLDR
The RWC-RT relationship showed a distinct breakpoint, which the authors hypothesise coincides with the turgor loss point, and the piecewise model parameters were related to salt tolerance of the species, which is also an indicator of drought resistance.

Plant Physiological Ecology

TL;DR: This textbook is notable in emphasizing that the mechanisms underlying plant physiological ecology can be found at the levels of biochemistry, biophysics, molecular biology and whole-plant physiology, well-suited to assess the costs, benefits and consequences of modifying plants for human needs, and to evaluate the role of plants in ecosystems.

Salt tolerance and salinity effects on plants: a review.

TL;DR: The ability of plants to tolerate salt is determined by multiple biochemical pathways that facilitate retention and/or acquisition of water, protect chloroplast functions, and maintain ion homeostasis as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crop salt tolerance–current assessment

TL;DR: An extensive literature review of all available salt tolerance data was undertaken to evaluate the current status of our knowledge of the salt tolerance of agricultural crops as mentioned in this paper, concluding that crops tolerate salinity up to a threshold level above which yields decrease approximately linearly as salt concentrations increase.
