Soil Salinity: A Threat to Global Food Security
Abstract
Soil salinity is a global issue threatening land productivity, and estimates predict that 50% of all arable land will become impacted by salinity by 2050. Consequently, it is important to have a fundamental understanding of crop response to salinity to minimize economic loss and improve food security. While an immense amount of research has been performed assessing corn (Zea mays L.) and soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] response to salinity, there are few, if any, comprehensive reviews compiling previously published literature. This review provides a detailed description of our current knowledge on the impacts of salinity on corn and soybean growth and development. Both osmotic stress and specific ion toxicities with respect to corn and soybean are addressed. Additionally, potential areas of future research are recommended. Core Ideas Review of salinity's effects on corn and soybean growth and development. Impacts of osmotic stress and specific ion toxicities discussed. Potential areas of future research addressed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
