Abstract | ||||
Salinity is a significant environmental issue that poses serious risks to agriculture globally. Crop yield is restricted by salt stress due to industrial expansion and/or habitat use. Agricultural land is disappearing at an alarming rate as the global population grows. Meeting the demand for food necessitates utilizing salt-affected areas. Reduced plant productivity is caused by substantial osmotic stress and nutritional disruption in plants growing in salinity stress conditions. Under salinity stress, plants exhibit a variety of reactions that alter their morphology and biochemistry. Modifying the damaging impacts of salinity on plant growth and yield requires a thorough understanding of how plants respond to salt stress as well as inclusive management approaches of physiological and biochemical features. Several studies on how plants respond to salt stress have underscored the significance of integrating multiple strategies to address the issue of salinity. This work will concentrate on the physiological and morphological changes in plants exposed to salinity, along with an outline of suitable methods for modifying plant tolerance and adaptability to salt stress. | ||||
