Abstract excerpt
Seed dimorphism provides plants with alternative strategies for survival in unfavorable environments. Here, we investigated the physiological responses and differential gene expression caused by salinity exposure in Atriplex centralasiatica plants grown from the two different seed morphs. Seedlings derived from yellow seeds (YS) showed a greater salt tolerance than those derived from brown seeds (BS). Salt...
