“…In this study, we applied different treatments of salt and water stress to T. mandavillei . The salinity levels for T. mandavillei included three treatments, as follows: no NaCl of 0 dSm −1 (control), standard salinity levels of 10 dSm −1 and high salinity levels with 20 dSm −1 (Zamin et al, 2019; Zamin & Khattak, 2017). These treatments were applied by using sodium chloride (NaCl, purity 99.5%).…”

“…Plants are typically exposed to a broad myriad of biotic and abiotic stresses, including feeding from wild animals and insects, weed infestation, hail, mechanical injury, diseases, low soil fertility, drought, salinity and others that can diminish the plant photosynthetic area, and thus, the attained total plant biomass or grain yield (Adeyemi et al, 2020; Adnan et al, 2020; Battaglia et al, 2018; Battaglia, Lee, Thomason, Fike, et al, 2019; Battaglia, Lee, Thomason, & Van Mullekom, 2019; Diatta, Fike, et al, 2020; Diatta, Thomason, et al, 2020; Farsad et al, 2019; Thomason & Battaglia, 2020) In the case of plants grown in a hot, arid or semi‐arid climate two of the main yield and biomass‐limiting stresses are salinity and drought (Saleem, Ali, Hussain, et al, 2020; Saleem, Ali, Rehman, Hasanuzzaman, et al, 2020; Zamin et al, 2019). In this context, the use of native and perennial C4 plant species, that can remain highly productive in environments with saline soils and recurrent drought periods, is an important strategy to cope against these predominant abiotic stresses in arid and semi‐arid climates (Battaglia, Fike, et al,2019; Khan, Zhang, Luo, Liu, Rizwan, et al, 2019b; Kumar, Lai, Battaglia, et al, 2019; Kumar, Lai, Kumar, et al, 2019; Mohamed et al, 2020).…”

Tetraena mandavillei L. is a perennial shrub native to the Middle Eastern countries of Asia, which is extensively regarded as a drought-tolerant plant. However, the plant reduces growth and biomass when grown in high concentrations of sodium chloride in the soil. We conducted a pot experiment to influence the negative impact of different levels of salinity (0, 10, and 20 dSm −1 ) and drought stress (100, 80, 60, and 40% water field capacity), to study different growth-related parameters, physiological alterations and ion uptake by T. mandavillei. Both salinity and drought stress caused a negative impact by affecting several attributes of T. mandavillei, but the plants showed some resistance against drought stress conditions in terms of growth and biomass. In addition to that, we noticed that a combinatorial and individual impact of drought and salinity stress decreased photosynthetic pigments and gas exchange parameters in T. mandavillei. Results also depicted that the combination of the abiotic stress conditions drought and salinity induced reactive oxygen species (ROS), indicating that the plants undergo oxidative damaged.

“…The adverse effects of salinity on plant growth depend on plant factors such as growth stage, species, and variety; soil factors such as temperature and moisture, degree of salinity, and presence of heavy metals; and environmental factors such as growing season, temperature, humidity, light, pollutants in the atmosphere, etc. [47][48][49][50][51][52]. Based on the degree of salinity and associated effects on the plant growth, the saline soils can be classified from nonsaline to very strongly saline ( Table 2).…”

Abiotic Stress in Plants

High salt concentration in soil is a major abiotic stress, which adversely influences the growth, overall development, and productivity of crops. More than 20% of the land of the world used for crop production is adversely affected by high salt concentration. The problem of salt stress becomes a major concern when previously fertile, productive agricultural lands are salinized more profoundly as a result of anthropogenic activities along with natural causes. Therefore, this review is focused on various aspects of salt-affected soils (SAS), their effects on plants, and different approaches for reclamation of SAS to enhance the potentiality for crop production. Salt-affected soils are categorized into saline, saline-sodic, and sodic soils based on the amount of total soluble salts as expressed by electrical conductivity (EC), sodium adsorption ratio (SAR), exchangeable sodium percentage (ESP), and soil pH. The inhibition of plant growth in saline soils is mainly induced by osmotic stress; reduced uptake of essential macro-and micronutrients, including nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), zinc (Zn), and copper (Cu); and specific toxicities of sodium (Na) and chloride (Cl). Sodic soils adversely affect the plant through high soil pH and poor physical condition resulting from an excessive amount of exchangeable Na. Different plants respond to salt stress in different extents. Saltaffected soils must be reclaimed to restore their productivity for increasing food production. The approaches for the management of SAS include leaching, incorporation of different organic and inorganic amendments, mulching, and development of salt-tolerant crops. The suitability of approaches depends on several considerations such as cost of reclamation, the time required, the extent of the salt stress, soil properties, availability of technology, and other environmental factors. Among different strategies, the incorporation of organic amendments is beneficial, costeffective, environment friendly, and sustainable for amelioration of salt stress and enhancement of crop production due to the extensive roles of organic amendments in improving the soil's physical (structural stability, porosity, and permeability), chemical [pH, EC, ESP, organic matter, cation exchange capacity (CEC), and Na leaching], and biological and/or biochemical (microbial abundance, microbial activity, biomass carbon, and enzymatic activities) properties.

Abiotic Stress in Plants

Drought stress is the most prominent limiting factor and abiotic stress that manipulates the physiological pathway, biochemical traits and hence negatively affects wheat crop productivity. The global nitrogen (N) recovery indicated that about two-fifths of N inputs are lost in the ecosystems through emission, denitrification, gaseous loss, leaching, surface runoff and volatilization etc. Farmers are using higher rates of N to harvest maximum yield but about 50–60% of applied N to crop field is not utilized by the plants and are lost to environment causing environmental pollution. These deleterious environmental consequences need to be reduced by efficient management of N and/or water. N-availability is often regulated by soil water; hence crop is experiencing N- and water-limitation simultaneously. There is great impetus to optimize their uptake through interconnectedness of water and N for yield determination of wheat because of the water scarcity and N losses. It is further advocate that there is need to investigate the intricate role of economizing N rate and water simultaneously for wheat crop growth, yield and backing quality may be beneficial to be investigate.
