February 2025 in “Scientia Horticulturae” This study found that tomato plants inoculated with Enterobacter sp. SA187 grew better under salinity and heat stress, showing improved biomass, ion balance, chlorophyll content, and antioxidant enzyme activity, potentially enhancing crop tolerance to environmental stress.
October 2024 in “Journal of Plant Growth Regulation” Fusarium sp. strain K-23 helps Arabidopsis plants grow better in salty soil by promoting root hair growth.
January 2006 in “OpenCommons at University of Connecticut (University of Connecticut)” This study found that double transgenic Arabidopsis plants overexpressing both AVP1 and AtNHX1 showed improved salt tolerance and enhanced root hair and hypocotyl growth compared to single transgenic lines.
