Molecular Insights Into Salt Stress Adaptation in Plants

The significant rise in soil salinity has had detrimental effects on global agricultural production, negatively impacting overall plant health and leading to a decline in productivity. As a protective response, plants have developed diverse regulatory mechanisms to counteract these adverse conditions. The mechanisms help mitigate damage caused by both osmotic and ionic stress resulting from high salinity. Given the severe threat this poses to global food security and the well-being of the world's population, scientists have dedicated decades of research to understanding how to manage salt stress. Numerous mechanisms have been identified and studied to enhance plant salt tolerance and alleviate the damage…
