Physiology of Halophytes

Provides information on the mechanisms of plant responses to various environmental stresses. Covers molecular, biochemical, and physiological mechanisms behind salt tolerance on halophytes and saline adaptations. Overviews metabolomic, proteomic, and ionomic adjustment and adaptive mechanisms of halophytes under salinity stress.

Halophytes, salt-tolerant plants that grow in soils and waters with high salinity , are spectacular plants that can prove tremendously valuable to both man as well as nature due to their unique physiology , such as to enhance the productivity of crops in salt-affected soils, for land re-vegetation, to develop salt-tolerant crops, and to provide forage for cattle. This new book presents scientific knowledge and expertise on the mechanisms of plant responses to various environmental stresses, providing a systematic review of the physiological responses of halophytes to salinity , discussing adaptive pathways of halophytes and the prospects of increasing plant salinity tolerance.
