TLDR
There is greater understanding about how cellular transport systems functionally integrate to facilitate tissue and organismal Na + homeostasis, and notable in this process are HKT1 Na + transporters, which regulate Na + loading into the root xylem, limiting flux to and accumulation in the shoot.About:

Mechanism of Salinity Tolerance in Plants: Physiological, Biochemical, and Molecular Characterization
Bhaskar Gupta,Bingru Huang +1 more
TL;DR: This paper provides a comprehensive review of major research advances on biochemical, physiological, and molecular mechanisms regulating plant adaptation and tolerance to salinity stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic mechanisms of abiotic stress tolerance that translate to crop yield stability.
TL;DR: An effective new paradigm is the targeted identification of specific genetic determinants of stress adaptation that have evolved in nature and their precise introgression into elite varieties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sodium chloride toxicity and the cellular basis of salt tolerance in halophytes
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the evidence for Na+ and Cl− toxicity and the concept of tissue tolerance in relation to halophytes and suggest that halophyte tolerate cytoplasmic Na+/Cl− concentrations of 100-200mm.

Regulation of Na+ and K+ homeostasis in plants: towards improved salt stress tolerance in crop plants
TL;DR: This review will introduce salt stress responses in plants and summarize the current knowledge about the most important ion transporters that facilitate intra- and intercellular K+ and Na+ homeostasis in these organisms.

The chemical composition of suberin in apoplastic barriers affects radial hydraulic conductivity differently in the roots of rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. IR64) and corn (Zea mays L. cv. Helix)
TL;DR: The results imply that some caution is required when discussing the role of suberin in terms of an efficient transport barrier for water, as the OPR of rice is highly porous and permeable to water, it is argued that this holds true only for the endodermis.

Salinity, Osmolytes and Compatible Solutes
TL;DR: It is essential that other solutes be accumulated in the cytoplasm to keep this compartment in osmotic balance with the external medium and vacuole.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Physiological Relevance of Na+-Coupled K+-Transport
TL;DR: The results suggest that in terrestrial species Na+-coupled K+ transport has no or limited physiological relevance, whereas in certain aquatic angiosperms and algae this type of secondary transport energization plays a significant role.

How can stomata contribute to salt tolerance
TL;DR: The development of salt-tolerant cultivars of crops may require attention to the need for appropriate adaptations to the ionic relations of stomatal guard cells, and one adaptation is worthy of further exploration because it may provide a means for 'top down' control of transpiration and, therefore, of the amount of salt delivered to the shoot.
