Sommario/riassunto |
|
PRELIMINARY This handbook covers all important topics related to halophyte biology: definition, classification, morphology, anatomy, ultrastructure, physiology and ecophysiology, photosynthesis, biochemistry, genetics and genomics, saline environments and the rhizosphere, ecology, mangroves, biosaline agriculture and potential use of halophytes. Each topic is explained in detail and examined from various angles in order to offer a comprehensive view on this fascinating group of plants. The idea and the vision of this handbook are born from a need for having a treatise – in its encyclopaedic sense – that gathers all relevant knowledge about halophytes, which may play a key-role in an anxious scenarios regarding salinity threat in agriculture and food crisis. |
