Abstract excerpt
Tolerance mechanisms to salinity and drought stress are quite complex. Plants have developed a complex and elaborate signaling network that ensures their adaptation to this stress. For example, salinity tolerance is thought to be due to three main factors: Na(+) exclusion, tolerance to Na(+) in the tissues and osmotic tolerance. Recently, many transcription factors for tolerance to salt and drought stresses have...
