Ecophysiology of Vascular Halophytes provides a useful update to
existing literature describing the ecophysiological responses of
vascular halophytes to environmental stresses present in saline
habitats. The success of species growing in these extreme
environments is related to a number of adaptations, including the
timing of phenological events, phenotypic plasticity and genetic
selection for specific ecophysiological responses at different
stages of development. Factors discussed that influence the growth
and distribution of halophytes include seed germination, salinity
stress, salt stimulation, flooding, ion content, nitrogen, plant
water status, growth regulators, photosynthesis, and genecology.
The book also discusses the effects of both interspecific and
intraspecific competition on the growth and survival of halophytes.
Researchers and students of stress ecology, as well as agricultural
research organizations, will find a tremendous store of information
in this volume.
