Exploring the Research Challenges and Perspectives in Ecophysiology of Plants Affected by Salinity Stress

Soil salinization processes have increased over the years and affect large parts of agricultural fields. The purpose this review was to highlight most important aspects regarding potential effects soil salinity on plants. In current context climate change, extreme weather drought periods can lead plant metabolic dysfunctionalities accumulation salt ions because increasing need for irrigation. limiting factor, salinity, has a highly negative impact growth independent appearance either natural or anthropic status. include decreased leaf development rate, low water level in all plant, reduced cell division elongation, low-intensity photosynthetic rate. Other are directly related stomata closure, transpiration, CO2 level, limitations seed germination. However, there also some positive presence soil. field offers unlimited possibilities research order activate pathways that help plants become resistant stress. Several physiological parameters benefit from concentration (halopriming), such as germination, vigor, rapid seedling growth, number. Further studies should focus both increase salinity.
