Salinity: Translating information from model microbes into crop plants

“…2 A schematic representation of the flow of information from microbes to crop plants. (4), molecular and genetic characterization of transgenic plants for stable and efficient gene expression (5), if needed, transfer of genes into cultivars by conventional breeding methods (6), evaluation of transgenic plants for their effectiveness in withstanding the biotic and abiotic stresses without being an environmental hazard (7) (see [77] for detail). However, each step has its own limitations.…”
