DOI: 10.3390/ijms232213885
Abstract: Soil salinization is one of the major factors restricting crop growth and agricultural production worldwide. Recretohalophytes have developed unique epidermal structures in their aboveground tissues, such as salt glands or salt bladders, to secrete excess… read more here.
