Antarctic Extremophiles: Biotechnological Alternative to Crop Productivity in Saline Soils
Salinization of soils is one of the main sources of soil degradation worldwide, particularly in arid and semiarid ecosystems. High salinity results in osmotic stress and it can negatively impact plant grow and survival. Some plant species, however, can tolerate salinity by accumulating osmolytes lik...
