Salt tolerance and salinity effects on plants: a review.
TLDR
The ability of plants to tolerate salt is determined by multiple biochemical pathways that facilitate retention and/or acquisition of water, protect chloroplast functions, and maintain ion homeostasis as mentioned in this paper.About:

Influence of abiotic stress signals on secondary metabolites in plants
TL;DR: This brief review summarizes the influence of different abiotic factors include salt, drought, light, heavy metals, frost etc. on secondary metabolites in plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
The critical role of potassium in plant stress response.
TL;DR: The emerging role of K in defending against a number of biotic and abiotic stresses, including diseases, pests, drought, salinity, cold and frost and waterlogging is focused on.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in alleviation of salt stress: a review.
TL;DR: This review gives useful benchmark information for the development and prioritization of future research programmes and identifies certain lesser explored areas such as molecular and ultra-structural changes where further research is needed for better understanding of symbiosis with reference to salt stress.

Plant Responses to Salt Stress: Adaptive Mechanisms
José Ramón Acosta-Motos,María Fernanda Ortuño,Agustina Bernal-Vicente,Pedro Diaz-Vivancos,María Jesús Sánchez-Blanco,José Antonio Hernández +5 more
TL;DR: This review deals with the adaptive mechanisms that plants can implement to cope with the challenge of salt stress, including morphological, physiological and biochemical changes, and some of the mechanisms thought to protect the photosynthetic machinery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of salinity stress on plants and its tolerance strategies: a review.
TL;DR: The understanding of salinity impact on various aspects of plant metabolism and its tolerance strategies in plants is reviewed and it appears to be a major constraint to plant and crop productivity.

Salt and drought stress signal transduction in plants
TL;DR: Salt and drought stress signal transduction consists of ionic and osmotic homeostasis signaling pathways, detoxification (i.e., damage control and repair) response pathways, and pathways for growth regulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plant cellular and molecular responses to high salinity.
TL;DR: Evidence for plant stress signaling systems is summarized, some of which have components analogous to those that regulate osmotic stress responses of yeast, some that presumably function in intercellular coordination or regulation of effector genes in a cell-/tissue-specific context required for tolerance of plants.
