Tolerance Mechanisms of Olive Tree () under Saline Conditions.

The olive tree ( L.) is an evergreen tree that occupies 19% of the woody crop area and is cultivated in 67 countries on five continents. The largest olive production region is concentrated in the Mediterranean basin, where the olive tree has had an enormous economic, cultural, and environmental impact since the 7th century BC.

Plant Growth Regulators Application Enhance Tolerance to Salinity and Benefit the Halophyte in Saline Agriculture.

Climate change, soil salinisation and desertification, intensive agriculture and the poor quality of irrigation water all create serious problems for the agriculture that supplies the world with food. Halophyte cultivation could constitute an alternative to glycophytic cultures and help resolve these issues. can be used in biosaline agriculture as it tolerates salt concentrations of 100 mM NaCl.
