Colonization by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi improves salinity tolerance of eucalyptus (Eucalyptus camaldulensis) seedlings

Chaiya Klinsukon et al.

Summary: The study showed that AMF improved the growth and survival of eucalyptus seedlings under saline conditions by increasing chlorophyll content and K/Na ratio while decreasing leaf proline concentration. Pre-inoculation with AMF also significantly enhanced plant performance by more than 30% compared to non-inoculated plants, indicating that AMF can mitigate the negative effects of salinity on plant physiological and biochemical parameters.

Co-Application of Biochar and Arbuscular mycorrhizal Fungi Improves Salinity Tolerance, Growth and Lipid Metabolism of Maize (Zea mays L.) in an Alkaline Soil

Ndiaye Ibra Ndiate et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of biochar and Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on maize plants grown under saline stress. The combination of biochar and AMF showed the most significant improvement in plant growth under saline stress. The superior mitigating effect of biochar + AMF was attributed to its ability in improving soil nutrient content, enhancing plant nutrient uptake, and increasing the activities of antioxidant enzymes.

Drought tolerance in selected aerobic and upland rice varieties is driven by different metabolic and antioxidative responses

Giovanni Melandri et al.

Summary: The study found that sugar-mediated osmotic acclimation and strong antioxidative response can reduce drought-induced biomass loss in rice at the vegetative stage. Different metabolic and antioxidant adaptations confer drought tolerance to aerobic and upland rice varieties, with varying effectiveness at different developmental stages. Unraveling the genetic control of these mechanisms may be valuable in breeding new rice varieties adapted to water-limited environments.

Effect of Salt Stress on Growth, Physiological Parameters, and Ionic Concentration of Water Dropwort (Oenanthe javanica) Cultivars

Sunjeet Kumar et al.

Summary: Salt stress is a significant environmental factor that affects plant growth. Water dropwort, an important vegetable in East Asia, was studied for its phenotypic and physiological responses to varying levels of salt stress. Results showed that some cultivars were more tolerant to salt stress with better antioxidant defense mechanisms, indicating potential for further research and development in this area.
