Towards the rational use of high salinity tolerant plants Vol 2: Agriculture and forestry under marginal soil water conditions
The Symposium on high salinity tolerant plants, held at the University of Al Ain in December 1990, dealt primarily with plants tolerating salinity levels exceeding that of ocean water and which at the same time are promising for utilization in agriculture or forestry. These plants could be very usef...
