Germination responses of endemic land-races of Saudi-Arabian cereal species
… cereal species are not normally regarded as halophytes but the behaviour of these land races suggested tolerance as high as that of many true halophytes of coastal salt marshes. None of these species showed significant dormancy, presumably as a result of previous domestication, and none …

The Influence of Hydrogeomorphology, Soil Redox Conditions, and Salinity on the Spatial Zoning of Saltgrass, Salt Rush, and Cattails in Scotts Creek Marsh, Swanton Pacific Ranch, CA
… CS 5.1 (AP5) to analyze IRIS images. All three halophytes were well suited for anoxic, redox, and saline conditions by utilizing morphological adaptations (arenchyma, adventitious roots) to their root systems. The study concluded that the spatial zoning of the three dominate halophyte species …

Spatial modeling and visualization of habitat response to hydrologic restoration in New England salt marshes
… conditions predicted gradual replacement of halophytes by brackish invasive species, especially P. australis. Simulations involving tidal restoration strongly favored halophyte species. Based on spatial model outputs, realistic visualizations of marsh scenario results were designed and …

Distribution of non-native wetland plants is facilitated by urbanization and roads in the Chicago region
… species were best predicted by road variables; halophytes were more commonly associated with major roads such as interstates and federal highways, road types that are likely to receive greater applications of de-icing salts. For the second analysis I examined non-native species composition and …

A study of salt tolerance in Arabidopsis thaliana and Hordeum vulgare
… addition cell suspension cultures from the dicot halophytes Beta vulgaris and Atriplex halimus were also generated. Unfortunately, severe disruptions were encountered following a serious fire; persistent power failures, and failures of new equipment hampered progress with this work. For this …

Modeling salt movement and halophytic crop growth on marginal lands with the APEX model
… Cultivation of highly salt-tolerant plants, or halophytes, may increase productivity compared to conventional salt-sensitive crops (i.e., glycophytes), thereby increasing the economic potential of these marginal lands affected by salinity. To better understand the long-term impacts of halophyte …

The recreation of estuarine ecosystem : a case study at Paull Holme Strays, Humber Estuary, UK.
… experimental studies on the colonization of halophytes within the salt mars were conducted. The study indicates that an abiotic factor such as sediment accretion is occurring at a rapid rate in the northwest of the restoration site. Grain size and organic content have remained constant and …

Impacts of Salinity on Germination, Growth, Oxalate and Inorganic Ion Relations
… ions in the external medium. In contrast to most halophytes which accumulate sodium even under low salinity, K+ was the principal cation in kochia plants under nonsaline or low salinity conditions. High Mg and Na depressed K+ and total Ca++, but increased soluble Ca++ levels in the plant. Sulphate …

Anatomía ecológica de la vegetación del Salitral de la Vidriera
El Salitral de la Vidriera (Part. Villarino, Prov. Buenos Aires) presenta una gran cantidad de factores de estrés (sequía, salinidad, alta radiación, etc.) que impiden la implantación de muchas plantas; sin embargo, permite la existencia de otras que han logrado adaptarse a tales condiciones …
