“…In another study, Shahzad et al [ 58 ] observed that irrigating maize ( Zea mays ) with saline water (8000 ppm) negatively impacted the photosynthetic activity of plants as indicated by a decline in the chlorophyll content of plant leaves and growth. Salinity stress has also been reported to induce changes in the anatomy of several plant species as a result of changes in turgor potential, osmotic potential, and a decline in nutrient uptake [ 57 , 59 , 60 ]. For instance, Abrar et al [ 61 ] investigated the impact of salinity on the agro-morphological traits of Jatropha curcas and observed a significant reduction in plant height and stem diameter under salinity stress.…”

“…For instance, Abrar et al [ 61 ] investigated the impact of salinity on the agro-morphological traits of Jatropha curcas and observed a significant reduction in plant height and stem diameter under salinity stress. In young citrus rootstocks, Othman et al [ 59 ] observed a reduction in nutrient uptake in sour orange ( Citrus aurantium ) irrigated with saline water reaching up to 12,000 ppm which led to a decline in several agro-morphological traits such as stem diameter, plant height, and leaf area. Similarly, Kheloufi & Mansouri [ 60 ] reported anatomical changes in root and stem tissues of Acacia karroo and Acacia saligna cultivated under highly saline conditions.…”

Background Soil salinity, soil infertility, and freshwater scarcity are among the major constraints affecting agricultural ecosystems in arid and semi-arid regions of the world. Hence, there is a need to look for salt-tolerant crops and fish that can be successfully cultivated and reared respectively in such harsh environments. The implementation of biosaline integrated aquaculture-agriculture systems (IAAS) utilizing both salt-tolerant crops and fish could improve food and feed production in arid and semi-arid regions. This study, therefore, investigated the influence of salinity on the biometric traits of striped catfish (Pangasianodon hypophthalmus) and barley (Hordeum vulgare) under an IAAS. Method The experiment followed a randomized completely block design of three salinity treatments with three replicates namely, T0: Control (freshwater mixed with chemical fertilizers), T1: 5,000 ppm, T2: 10,000 ppm, and T3: 15,000 ppm. Results Irrigating barley with saline aquaculture wastewater at different salinities (5,000 ppm, 10,000 ppm, and 15,000 ppm) did not significantly affect the agro-morphological parameters (internode number per plant, stalk diameter, leaf number per plant, leaf area index, and leaf chlorophyll content (SPAD)) of the plants at 90 days after sowing. Moreover, the forage yield and forage quality in terms of fiber fraction, nutrient composition, and in vitro digestibility of the forage biomass were not severely affected by high salinity compared to the control (freshwater and inorganic fertilizers). Our results also showed that rearing striped catfish in saline water not exceeding 10,000 ppm did not negatively impact the growth performance (final weight, body weight gain, feed conversion ratio, specific growth rate, condition factor, and survival) and the health status of the fish. Conclusions The integration of striped catfish and barley production in water salinities below 15,000 ppm could be a feasible alternative in safeguarding food and feed security in regions affected by soil salinity, soil infertility, and freshwater scarcity. Moreover, the salinity regime of 5,000 ppm could bring higher economic gains to farmers regarding higher crop yields (fish and forage yield).

“…Plant tolerance to salinity is associated with their ability to restrict the uptake and/or transport of toxic salts from roots to the shoot [21,22]. As shown in Figures 3 and 4, the use of sour passion fruit seedlings grafted onto Passiflora cincinnata associated with plastic mulching on the soil resulted in greater plant tolerance to saline stress since, under these conditions, they showed higher values of foliar ionic relations, with higher foliar contents of N, P, K, Ca, Mg, and S to the detriment of the reduction in Na and Cl uptake and transport.…”

“…From this perspective, grafting is employed with cultivation under saline conditions, because some tolerant species, when used as rootstocks, can exclude Na + and Cl − ions through mechanisms that regulate their uptake and transport within the plant [18][19][20]. This behavior is verified in several commercial species, e.g., mango-Mangifera indica L. [19]; citrus-Citrus macrophylla Wester, Citrus reticulata, and Punica granatum L. [21,22]; and tomato-Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. [10].…”

In semiarid regions of Brazil, water and/or soil salinity is one of the limiting factors for sour passion fruit production. Low rainfall rates combined with edaphic conditions (high concentrations of soluble salts) intensify deleterious effects on plants. Thus, strategies that minimize the effects of salt stress, e.g., grafting with tolerant species and soil mulching, are extremely important to ensure the expansion of irrigated fruit farming in this region. From this perspective, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of grafting and mulching on the quantum yield, ionic relations, and fruit production of sour passion fruit irrigated with moderately saline water. The experiment was conducted under field conditions in split plots, in a 2 × (2 × 2) factorial arrangement to evaluate the combination of low and moderate salinity water (main plot) with the propagation method (seeds and grafting on P. cincinnata) and without and with plastic mulching (subplots), with four replications and three plants per plot. The ionic relations in passion fruit leaves were increased with the use of rootstocks and plastic mulching under irrigation with moderately saline water. The use of mulching increased the yield of photosystem II in sour passion fruit. The passion fruit plants propagated by seeds had 187.52% more fruits than those grafted onto P. cincinnata. The use of rootstocks with P. cincinnata in sour passion fruit restricted the uptake of Na and Cl but reduced fruit production.
