Impact of Plant Growth Promoting Bacteria on Salicornia ramosissima Ecophysiology and Heavy Metal Phytoremediation Capacity in Estuarine Soils
(Frontiers Media, 2020)
Salicornia ramosissima is a C3 halophyte that grows naturally in South Western Spain salt marshes, under soil salinity and heavy metal pollution (mostly Cu, Zn, As, and Pb) caused by both natural and anthropogenic pressure. ...

Carry-over of differential salt tolerance in plants grown from dimorphic seeds of Suaeda splendens
(Oxford University Press, 2008)
Background and Aims: Halophytic species often show seed dimorphism, where seed morphs produced by a single individual may differ in germination characteristics. Particular morphs are adapted to different windows of opportunity ...

Assessing the effect of copper on growth, copper accumulation and physiological responses of grazing species Atriplex halimus: Ecotoxicological implications
(Elsevier, 2013-04-01)
Tolerance of plants to elevated concentrations of heavy metals in growth media and in its tissues leads to high degrees of metal bioaccumulation, which may pose a risk for humans and animals alike. Therefore, bio-accumulating ...

Reliance on deep soil water in the tree species Argania spinosa
(Oxford University Press, 2018)
In South-western Morocco, water scarcity and high temperature are the main factors determining species survival. Argania spinosa (L.) Skeels is a tree species, endemic to Morocco, which is suffering from ongoing habitat ...

Macronutrient chloride nutrition improves drought resistance by enhancing water deficit avoidance and tolerance mechanisms
(Oxford University Press, 2021)
Chloride (Cl-), traditionally considered harmful for agriculture, has recently been defined as a beneficial macronutrient with specific roles that result in more efficient use of water (WUE), nitrogen (NUE), and CO2 in ...

Recurrent allopolyploidizations diversify ecophysiological traits in marsh orchids (Dactylorhiza majalis s.l.)
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2023)
Whole-genome duplication has shaped the evolution of angiosperms and other organisms, and is important for many crops. Structural reorganization of chromosomes and repatterning of gene expression are frequently observed ...

Growth and photosynthetic responses to copper stress of an invasive cordgrass, Spartina densiflora
(Elsevier, 2008)
Spartina densiflora Brongn. is found in coastal marshes of south-west Spain, growing in sediments with between 300 and 3000 mg Cu kg-1 total soil DW (450-4500 mg Cu kg-1 supposing that the soil porosity is 0.5). An experiment ...

Chloride as a macronutrient increases water-use efficiency by anatomically driven reduced stomatal conductance and increased mesophyll diffusion to CO2
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2019)
Chloride (Cl−) has been recently described as a beneficial macronutrient, playing specific roles in promoting plant growth and water-use efficiency (WUE). However, it is still unclear how Cl− could be beneficial, especially ...

Growth and photosynthetic responses to salinity of the salt-marsh shrub Atriplex portulacoides
(Oxford University Press, 2007)
Background and Aims: Atriplex(Halimione) portulacoides is a halophytic, C3 shrub. It is virtually confined to coastal salt marshes, where it often dominates the vegetation. The aim of this study was to investigate its ...

Zinc tolerance and accumulation in the halophytic species Juncus acutus
(Elsevier, 2014)
The research on species with capacity to tolerate and accumulate zinc is of paramount importance for phytoremediation purposes. An experiment was designed to investigate the effect of Zn from 0 to 100mmoll-1 on the growth, ...
