Identification of salt-responsive genes from C4 halophyte through suppression subtractive hybridization and expression analysis under individual and combined treatment of salt and elevated carbon dioxide conditions.

Salinization of soil is a prime abiotic stress that limits agriculture productivity worldwide. To Study the mechanisms that halophytes take up to survive under high salt condition is important in engineering salinity stress tolerance in sensitive species. is a halophyte plant that grows in the saline environment and extreme high tidal belt.

Metabolomic insights into the mechanisms underlying tolerance to salinity in different halophytes.

Salinity is among the most detrimental and diffuse environmental stresses. Halophytes are plants that developed the ability to complete their life cycle under high salinity. In this work, a mass spectrometric metabolomic approach was applied to comparatively investigate the secondary metabolism processes involved in tolerance to salinity in three halophytes, namely S.
