The deleterious effects of soil salinity on biodiversity and agricultural productivity make it essential to devise strategies that would reduce its impact and expansion. For sustainable agriculture on dryland salinity affected areas, the use of native salt-tolerant plant species of economic value could provide a solution. In this work, the salinity tolerance potential of fifteen different Australian...
Soil salinity and drought severely affect all aspects of plant physiology, leading to significant losses of crop productivity and native biodiversity. A key to sustainable land use in such areas is to cultivate well-adapted native plants that are also commercially important and have the appropriate gene pool. Glycine betaine (GB) is an osmoprotectant that imparts salt and drought tolerance to some...
In this paper, a novel approach for preliminary identification of salt tolerance in Acacia species is presented, based on molecular phylogenetic analysis using nuclear ribosomal DNA markers (ITS and ETS). Four species of Acacia, i.e., A. pendula, A. salicina, A. victoriae and A. stenophylla, had been initially identified as salt tolerant and were being used for a land reclamation project of a salinity...
