Kinetics of xylem loading, membrane potential maintenance, and sensitivity of K+-permeable channels to reactive oxygen species: physiological traits that differentiate salinity tolerance between pea and barley

Salt sensitive (pea) and salt tolerant (barley) species were used to understand the physiological basis of differential salinity tolerance in crops. Pea plants were much more efficient in restoring otherwise depolarized membrane potential thereby effective ...

Reactive oxygen species production and signalling as a component of salinity tolerance mechanism in cereals

Amandine Massart

Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) are highly reactive and toxic by-products of the aerobic metabolism, which are overproduced during period of stress. They disturb the cell machinery and induce oxidative damages on important biological macromolecules. Salinity ...

Stochastic modeling of salt accumulation in the root zone due to capillary flux from brackish groundwater

Andrea Rinaldo, Samir Suweis

[1] Groundwater can be a source of both water and salts in semiarid areas, and therefore, capillary pressure-induced upward water flow may cause root zone salinization. To identify which conditions result in hazardous salt concentrations in the root zone, ...

Chemistry and climate interactions

Luca Pozzoli

Atmospheric trace gases and aerosols and climate interact in many ways. A quantitative assessment of the influence of trace gases and aerosols on climate can only be achieved if the interactions and feedbacks among these three major components are accounte ...
