Soil salinity is destroying several hectares of arable land every
minute. Because remedial land management cannot completely solve
the problem, salt tolerant crops or plant species able to remove
excessive salt from the soil could contribute significantly to
managing the salinity problem. The key to engineering crops for
salt tolerance lies in a thorough understanding of the
physiological mechanisms underlying the adaptive responses of
plants to salinity. Plant Salt Tolerance: Methods and Protocols
describes recent advances and techniques employed by researchers to
understand the molecular and ionic basis of salinity tolerance and
to investigate the mechanisms of salt stress perception and
signalling in plants. With chapters written by leading
international scientists, this book covers nearly 30 different
methods, such as microelectrode and molecular methods, imaging
techniques, as well as various biochemical assays. Written in the
highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology (TM) series format,
chapters contain introductions to their respective topics, lists of
the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily
reproducible laboratory protocols, and notes on troubleshooting and
avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and easily accessible, Plant
Salt Tolerance: Methods and Protocols serves as an essential read
for every student or researcher tackling various aspects of the
salinity problem.
