Background: Salinity is one of the major abiotic stresses affecting plant production in arid and semi-arid regions. It causes reduction of cultivable area and combined with other factors, presents a serious threat to food stability in these…
Life in salty habitats is a function of tolerance to those chemicals at all critical phases of a plant's life history. The ability to withstand salt as an established plant may require different mechanisms and plant traits than those needed…
Wild populations of Medicago ciliaris and Medicago polymorpha were subjected to four salt treatments 0, 50, 100 and 150 mM NaCl, plant growth and proline concentration in leaves were assessed. The analyzed data revealed significant…
The aim of this study was to determine the germination ability and seedling growth of the apple of Sodom by soaking in water, gibberellin (GA3), naphthylacetic acid (NAA), and salicylic acid (SA), separately. The findings showed that NAA at…
We use computer simulations to investigate the effect of salt on homogeneous ice nucleation. The melting point of the employed solution model was obtained both by direct coexistence simulations and by thermodynamic integration from previous…
Enceladus is a saturnian satellite that should have liquid water inside of it (subsurface ocean). Measurements and experiments on water plume from Enceladus have revealed that Enceladus' ocean contains several salts such as NaCl. On the…
Seed priming is one of the well-established and low cost method to improve seed germination properties, productivity, and stress tolerance in different crops. It is a pre-germination treatment that partially hydrates the seed and allows…
Cold plasma technologies are an efficient approach to improve the germination properties of seeds, especially in a stacking configuration within a dielectric barrier device. In such dry atmospheric plasma priming process, we show that a…
In this review, room temperature (RT) precipitation of the nanocrystalline-ceria (nc-ceria) re-dispersed and subsequently size-reduced by 20 kHz probe sonication in 25 % ethylene glycol/ 75 % DI-water mixed media is investigated. The…
Dunaliella Salina is a halotolerant microalga with great pharmaceutical and industrial potential, which commonly exists in hypersaline environments. Moreover, it is the best commercial source of beta-carotene (which has high anti-oxidant…
The influence of the salts KCl, NaCl, and NaI at molar concentrations on the {\alpha}-helical folding kinetics of the alanine-based oligopeptide Ace-AEAAAKEAAAKA-Nme is investigated by means of (explicit-water) molecular dynamics…
We used molecular dynamics simulations and the path sampling technique known as forward flux sampling to study homogeneous nucleation of NaCl crystals from supersaturated aqueous solutions at 298 K and 1 bar. Nucleation rates were obtained…
Plasma treatment of seeds is an efficient procedure to accelerate germination, to improve initial stages of plant growth and for protection against pathogens infection. Most studies relate these beneficial effects with biochemical…
Plant electrical signals have been shown to be generated in response to various environmental stresses, but the relationship between these signals and stress tolerance is not well understood. In this study, we used the Arabidopsis…
Alkali halide (100) crystal surfaces are poorly wetted by their own melt at the triple point. We carried out simulations for NaCl(100) within the well tested BMHFT model potential. Calculations of the solid-vapor, solid-liquid and…
The study investigates the effects of R. solani inoculation on the germination and early development of Lactuca sativa L. seeds using a low-cost, image-based monitoring system. Multiple cameras were deployed to continuously capture images…
The relative importance of micelle solubilization and Krafft temperature on the appraisal of the flocculation rate is studied using a dodecane-in-water nanoemulsion as a model system. In 0.5 mM solutions of sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS),…
Rates of aggregation of dodecane-in-water (d/w) nanoemulsions stabilized with 7.5 mM sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) are evaluated beyond 500 mM NaCl. As in the case of hexadecane-in-water (h/w) emulsions, it is found that flocculation rates…
We report measurements of the initial growth and subsequent transient response of dendritic crystals of ammonium chloride grown from supersaturated aqueous solution. Starting from a small, nearly spherical seed held in unstable equilibrium,…
Cohesive effects between fine-grained sediment particles greatly influence their effective settling rate and erodibility. Many studies have observed a qualitative difference in settling dynamics between clays in freshwater, where particles…
