“…GB is abundant mainly in the chloroplast where it plays a vital role in adjustment and protection of thylakoid membrane, thereby maintaining photosynthetic efficiency (Genard et al 1991). Plants synthesize glycine betaine via a two-step oxidation of choline: choline → betaine aldehyde → glycine betaine (Rhoades et al 1989). GB may serve as an osmoprotective to prevent cell damage from dehydration (Chen et al 2001).…”

“…Suggested agronomic practices for saline soils comprise irrigation at night to avoid evaporation loss (Rhoades, 1999), better cultivation approaches like sowing on raised beds, pre-sowing seed treatments to improve germination even in salt stress environment (Sayre, 2007;Egamberdiev, 2007;Bakker et al, 2010). Improved planting technique not only help to maintain optimize plant population by avoiding excessive crowding but also allow plants to exploit land, light, and other input resources uniformly and efficiently.…”

“…Crop consumptive demand for amount of irrigation water, water supply hardware and irrigation methods dictate the hydraulic design of irrigation systems. However, interrelations among irrigation water salinity, crop salinity tolerance level, leaching fraction (LF), leaching requirements (LR) and yield vs. salinity functions reveal a quite complicated relationship between irrigation hydraulic factors and salinity (Hoffman and Durnford, 1999;Letey, 1999;Rhoades, 1999). Cohen et al (2000aCohen et al ( , 2004a considered the loss of agricultural yield in irrigated fields, due to irrigation with saline water.…”

“…The lack of water supplies for irrigation is among the bottlenecks in the desired expected increase in food production. Use of saline water for irrigation was therefore suggested as a new source of irrigation water (Rhoades, 1999). Efficient use of saline water for irrigation requires appropriate development in the water supply system to improve system design and operation, which will account for water quality aspects in addition to the classical hydraulic design.…”
