According to the FAO, about 800 million Has of land are affected by salinity worldwide. Unfortunately, this situation will worsen in the context of climate change, where there will be an overall increase in temperature and a decrease in average annual rainfall worldwide. This Special Issue presents different research works and reviews on the response of plants to salinity, focused from different points of view: physiological, biochemical, and molecular levels. Although an important part of the studies on the response to salinity have been carried out with Arabidopsis plants, the use of other species with agronomic interest is also notable, including woody plants. Most of the conducted studies in this Special Issue were focused on the identification and characterization of candidate genes for salt tolerance in higher plants. This identification would provide valuable information about the molecular and genetic mechanisms involved in the salt tolerance response, and it also supplies important resources to breeding programs for salt tolerance in plants.Biology, life sciencesbicsscsoluble nutrientstranscription factorCDPKsalicylic acidantioxidant enzymeslight saturation pointphytohormoneion homeostasisantioxidant systemsphotosynthesisChlamydomonas reinhardtiihigh salinitynitric oxidepoplars (Populus)root activityabiotic stressestranscriptional activatorgerminationABAtranscriptomemandelonitrileredox homeostasisassociation mapping.redox signallingosmotic stressflaxstrigolactonessalt tolerancenucleolinCaDHN5photosystemEST-SSRNMTSapium sebiferumGossypium arboretumSOSBrassica napusSnRK2HKT1grapevinetranscription factorscucumberunderpinnings of salt stress responsesabiotic stressArabidopsis thalianaRNA-seqhalophytessingle nucleotide polymorphismsdehydrinJ8-1 plum linechlorophyll fluorescencenatural variationhydrogen peroxidesalt stresslipid peroxidationROS detoxificationROPmolecular mechanismscell membrane injurybooting stageascorbate cyclebanana (Musa acuminata L.)iTRAQ quantificationROSNa+Capsicum annuum L.bZIP transcription factorsmultiple bioactive constituentsNaCl stressphysiological changesVOZtranscriptional regulationgenome-wide identificationApocyni Veneti Foliumimpairment of photosynthesissalt-stressOryza sativareactive oxygen specieslipid accumulationpolyaminesmultivariate statistical analysisDEUssalinityTGaseSalt stressPrunus domesticaproteomicsArabidopsisRNA binding proteinriceglycophytesSsMAX2droughtgenome-wide association studytranscriptome analysissignal pathwaymelatoninMaROP5gBiology, life sciencesHernández Cortés Jose Antonio1786543ScCtBLLScCtBLLBOOK9910346880203321Salinity Tolerance in Plants4318289UNINA
